Freezing rain really sucks!! I hope it's not too bad and that you can stay inside! I love snow, but the cold and ice are not fun!

Thank you sir. You were an inspiration.
Just to cheer all y'all lucky people who have snow .

What’s your weather like? Pretty gross here. Just waiting for the Ski to get home from work, and then I can take a big sigh of relief.
We've had freezing rain pretty consistently today. I haven't left my apartment today, so I don't know exactly what it's like. I've heard the roads are ice covered, though. Madison Public Schools already cancelled for tomorrow, and they never close. They're 70 miles away, but still.
Glad he's home. Also glad there's no fire in your house and Mike didn't recess heck.

If the hydro (power to you) goes out, the electric blower on the furnace doesn’t work, and we’ll need to get a fire going in the fireplace for sure.

Not much difference, I guess, but you don't hear freezing rain. It never freezes until it hits the ground. Sleet or hail you can hear.

I have conferences next week so I'm jealous of you being done with them. I dread them too and they usually go well.

Must be freezing as it hits the window.
It's the extra hours on top of everything else. And this year conferences fell right during a whole bunch of other events. The past two weeks have been super busy, but next week goes back to a little bit of normalcy.

Extra hours and usually the parent come that don't really have to because their kids are doing great. Or I get the parents that have a melt down about everything in their life and use me as a therapy session, so it is a lot of social interaction I don't really want.
We have all the parents come. But it's a little different with the different ages we teach. With the first principal I had (I'm on my third), we had to contact parents who didn't sign up or were no-shows in several different ways and document when and how we contacted them. Now I don't contact them at all if they didn't sign up. We have sign ups through our parent communication app, ClassTag, and teachers can see who has viewed the post. All 19 families viewed mine. Three didn't sign up. I'm not reaching out to you. I've gotten to the point where I'm done enabling parents.

Our power flickered about 120 minutes ago. Was only out 5-10 seconds … long enough to reset my PVR and all of the digital clocks.
We’re lucky though, as most of the north end of the city is still out. My cousin gave up and went to bed.
I just sent up a quick word of thanks to the Big Guy that this never happened while Auntie was still home. I would have had mere minutes to get her hooked up to the liquid oxygen in the garage … all by the light of a flashlight. No candles of course, because of the oxygen.
Hoping we make it through the night with no loss of power. It will get mighty cold in here, mighty fast.
Stay safe friends who are also facing this storm.

Lots of snow here. My husband tried to let our smallest dog outside but when the door opened the snow was taller than he was (he is about 8-9 inches tall). So the pup just turned around and went back to his crate and snuggled back j to his blanket.
