ENOUGH ALREADY!!!

See this map? Guess which area we live in? That's right...that lovely shade of dark purple that is labeled Isolated 15"+. Argh. It's really cold out this morning too - about 20. Which wouldn't be too bad except we had a really mild week - over 60 on Friday! EJ was on school vacation week last week, but my guess is that it will be extended by another day. Her First Communion class for tomorrow has already been cancelled.

This year, we didn't go on our normal getaway to the White Mountains for a few days to go tubing, etc. We decided to wait until the weather is a little warmer and maybe go away for a weekend around the April school vacation week. Except that if we miss more than one day of school, part of April vacation week could be taken away, so we haven't made any plans yet. I would like to go up to Woodstock Vermont for a night or two. There's a great kid's museum near there, the Montshire Museum of Science. And then there's King Arthur's Baker Store. A stroll through the Dartmouth campus in Hanover is always fun, and if we plan it right, the Five College Book Sale!. We'll see.

This week, EJ went to the big kid's program at Sophie's daycare for four days and then to my office on Friday, where she had a blast in the game room at our new building. She played ping pong for the first time in her life, and then had special meetings booked with my boss for a little Guitar Hero Smackdown and the Executive VP for some Wii tennis and baseball. I had to tear her away at the end of the day. It really is a great facility...and it's a Leeds-certified green building. Yesterday, we went with one of her friends to see the Jonas Brothers 3D Concert Experience. Today? We're just sitting here waiting for the snow to start. And I really need to get the rest of the tax documents together.
