Delay

School has a 1 1/2 hour delay today due to the wintry mix and freezing rain. When my alarm went off this morning at 4:30am I looked out the window and all looked fine so I hauled my butt out of bed, got in the shower, got ready, and started the van to warm up. Just before I was going to leave I thought I would check the news to see how the roads were. Well, there were already tons of school delays including ours but I thought....hmmm Steve is home he can deal with that. Then I waited for the traffic report. Well apparently there was a tractor trailer going north on I-93 that flipped over, crossed the median and is blocking traffic going south on I-93 which is the route I take. That was enough for me to forget getting on the roads. So I started my coffee and flipped open the laptop to work at home. Some things are just not worth chancing.

Parker was afraid school would be cancelled today. He would have been very disappointed because his reading group is doing a piece on Martin Luther King Jr. over the morning announcements. He is so excited!
