Ice Storm with update

keeumm · February 2014

In typical fashion, DH and I are up earlier on snow days (we are both teachers) than we would be on typical school days. It's an ice storm today in MD, so we will be very, very housebound. I'd love to say that I will be catching up on my reading/lesson planning/grad work, but really, I will probably just sleep.

Is it wrong that as I look at the week ahead and see that more snow is being forecast that all I can do is smile as I think about the unlimited number of naps I can take?

ETA: Here's a pic of our downtown. Not a fan.

I am in the same boat in VA, except we only have a delay. I love extra snow days since I won't be making them up!

I am working from home today because of this and am also looking at the forecast for Sunday too

I'm in Arlington/Alexandria area and was hoping for at least a 2 hour delay. No luck. Enjoy your ice day!

Nope that isn't bad at all . I am working from home today due to the weather and I can't wait to do some prenatal yoga here in a little bit!

Yesterday I told my kids that their homework was to pray for the day off today - I'm home

I don't blame you one bit. However, I personally am sick of snow days. My kids haven't been to school all week, which causes either DH or I to have to miss work. Which means he doesn't get paid. And there's another round coming through Friday! Hopefully its gone by Monday and spring gets here asap!

My only issue with snow days is not getting paid! I'm a full time tutor at a school so am paid hourly. All these snow days are eating into my saving for baby fund! I'm enjoying the days off with dd though. And DH might be staying home today too.

I wish we got snow days.

I had to dig my van out of half a foot of snow this morning to get to work.

I'm not a teacher, but in typical Loudoun County fashion, the schools were closed this morning due to the freezing rain. Which means DD's weekly class is cancelled once again. If you like snow days, come teach in Loudoun! :-P

I'm enjoying the unlimited naps, but we used all our snow days and are now giving back vacation days. So while I'm enjoying it now...I won't be enjoying it later!

We always see you guys on our list of school closing, and when I first moved to MD, I knew a PE teacher who worked in Loudoun County. She would talk about how often schools were closed.

I'm sure I'll regret it later, but not really. Bring on the naps!

I live in NY and had no choice but to go into work! Stupid mayor refuses to close schools down but tells people to stay off the road! Ugh!

We were told of a 2 hr delay around 6 last night. At 8, I got a text saying we were closed due to power outages and blocked roadways. DS and I were walking out the door as the text came through. We now have 3 days tacked onto the end of the yr.

We didn't get Ice in Ohio but we certainly got snow.....and tons of it and it hasn't stopped. We closed today---with Level 2 emergencies everywhere---and who knows what tomorrow will bring (i'm hoping school).

jjtyler · February 2014

My daughter went in after a two hour delay this am and I am sitting in my office in midtown Manhattan after coming in late (thankfully I was able to avoid the rush hour DISASTER)....

Now, I just hope I can get home.
