Snow Day Thursday February 9th

Ollie wants a snow adventure 

Ollie's winter wonderland this morning

Ollie was patiently waiting to go out this morning, so after reading through a few of your blogs, we decided to brave the elements.








Once outside, we both realized that there was a lot of snow on the ground!  We played for a while, but even Ollie needed to come inside.

We are now back in the kitchen reading your blogs.  Both he and I are mostly impressed with your energy and willingness to accept the challenge of working on projects by yourselves.  It is scary to take this kind of risk, but once you dig in, especially if it is something you love, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish.  I hope that you are enjoying your day off, but I also hope that you are going to come back ready and willing to work really hard....you only have a few short months of your senior year left....make those months fun and not stressful.  So, get going: read, write, and create....May will be here before you know it.

Update: I have read through all your Monday blog posts, and for the most part I am really impressed with the wide variety of projects in the works.  You all have so much to offer, and I cannot wait to see what the outcome will be for all of you.  Please return to your blog posts to read my comments, and for some of you there may be some additional work to be done on the post.

Snow total here is now at 16".  It is beautiful, but I am not looking forward to shoveling.  I am going to procrastinate (something many of you mentioned) and watch some tv until I can no longer avoid shoveling.

Both my daughters in Rhode Island  have blizzard warnings with 2.5 feet of snow expected.  Dana, at RWU, said that there was thunder snow in Bristol!
