I don't want to take DS to school today-- is this wrong?

We had 15 inches of snow yesterday, and the roads are a mess. 

It's freaking freezing here (BELOW 0), and I just don't want to drive all the way across town with both kids and haul them in and out of the building (sh*t I wish it was not totally repugnant to me to leave them in the car

I am going to drive 3 blocks and workout/leave them at the gym daycare for an hour.  Maybe they'll learn something there. 

If he misses 3.5 hours of preschool it's not a big deal, right?

There's a reason they call it PREschool.

:-) Enjoy the gym.

No not at all, you have a very good reason. We kept DS home last Friday, just so he could play with the snow, and hang out with us for the day.

We had 15 inches of snow here yesterday too and its about 2 degrees, windchill well below zero. I was really counting on DH being done with plowing and home by now so I wouldn't have to take the girls out, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. If I didn't have to do payroll today, I'd just tell my dad I'm not coming to the office.

If you are going out anyway into the frigid weather...what makes the difference...except he might learn something at preschool and he probably won't at gym-care.  Also, do they have the same rules as far as sick kids.  You may be getting more than just playtime.  KWIM?

ugh.  my baby has a fever, and I already called my big kid in, so it's a moot point.  another day curled up at home.
