There is no school in the whole board again today.
Huge amounts of snow in the city. The University and College are closed. No public transit running.
Here, the ground is bare and the sun is shining.

A few weeks ago I switched from using a large wine goblet to a small wine glass.
Move Slowly, Lift Heavy, Sprint
None, but my wrist is feeling better.
Sleep, Sun, Play, and Use Your Brain
I went to bed at 1:30am. I was reading and waiting for my iPhone to update…
Awake at 7, just long enough to find out that there was no school again today.
The phone rang at 9:30. I got up at 10. I got ready and went to my friends house to help her with her Human sexuality university project. I converted the photos I took the other day to a Sepia tone.
She served me homemade Minestrone soup.
I dropped off some of my daughter’s clothes at my sisters. She knows a girl in grade 6 that needs clothes (bad home life). Then I took my daughter to her music lessons, but the Physio was cancelled – the Physiotherapist couldn’t get out of the city.
Then we dropped of my daughter’s old winter coat and snow pants at my sisters as well.
My Farmer and my son went to the deer hunter’s place to cut up the 10 deer. They took venison chili with them.
After supper, my daughter and I went over to the deer hunters and bagged up 36 medium sized freezer bags of scraps for the Papillons! There was still more when we left, and the Farmer will bring it home with him, along with the ‘people’ venison
My wrist is feeling better. Tomorrow I really gotta get back to exercising!
No school in the board again tomorrow! The city is snowed in. My nephew has been stuck in the city since Sunday night. We have NO snow here.

that was a very good idea switching from goblet to glass. I only pour myself small glasses, the fireman tends towards a more heavy hand though I have to say.
Bizzarre you have no snow where you are!
You are going to have very happy papillions.
Cool! Unexpected days off
Glad the wrist is better and enjoy all the venison (you, the farmer and the papillions!
My Journal
I measured both glasses today. With the goblet, I was drinking 10 oz and with the small glass I am drinking 5 oz!
The kids want to move to where the snow is
Yup! The Paps are thrilled!
The weird part is that there is no snow here, but they are 'snow days'.
The kids love it. "Dear school board: You make me happier than a fat kid getting a lifetime supply of ice cream!"
Thanks, I wrapped my wrist to exercise today. It helped.
And, oh yes! we will all enjoy the venison!
