Day 14 - another day in paradise

Cabin fever may be setting in after a two week break and three snow days. Little brother came out looking like this to do battle with bigger brother. Good thing we have lots of love in our home. :-)

The roads are still icy and drifted, and some of the back roads are closed as you cannot even get down them. We, however, will have school. The bus may skip your pick up if the driver can't navigate your road. Our superintendent suggested lots of extra time in the morning, which is great if you're in a position to do that. As a single parent, though, it gets challenging. And since the school changed the walking radius for the schools, it means I have to drop my high schooler off in the morning (or have him walk the icy road - no sidewalks in some places - where the inexperienced high schoolers will be driving). School and day care opening times don't change, and I'm unsure where I can squeeze extra travel time and still have everything work. I'm also unsure why safety doesn't come first with the welfare of so many children at stake.
