My daughter’s school is out of commission for 4-6 weeks. They’re setting up a temporary campus at a local community college 😳 This storm was no joke. Really hoping DS building opens next week. Oh my goshhhh. I am so sorry. I hope the temporary campus is set up quickly and works out ok.

It is snowing here and it's the most beautiful snowfall. We don't often get pretty snow. I am very glad to be able to stay in and look at it out of the window lol.

The kids have school today, which is great, except that I was expecting them to have a cold weather day. I was going to use that as an excuse to use a sick day, because I have had sciatic nerve pain for a couple of days now. I worked through it yesterday, so I know I CAN, but standing for seven hours with what feels like a cramp in your entire leg is not comfortable. Trying to convince myself to use my small amount of sick time for something I know I can work through is hard. I'm sorry, sciatic nerve pain is the worst Do you have a foam roller? Foam rolling my bum muscles is the only thing that brings me any relief. I think I do somewhere. We definitely did at one point bu then my sensory seeking DD started biting it, so I don’t know if I hid it or threw it away. 😂 But thanks for the reminder!

Though I have come to despise this show, I feel like Lorelei Gilmore breaking up with snow.
Previously we were in love, but now it's being mean.

STP, oh yikes. Are they doing virtual learning in the meantime? That sounds like a nightmare for everyone involved.

This happened to us when I was in elementary school. We ended up in a closed high school building for a while until they could fix things. I remember thinking it was cool having a locker that young. Hope everything gets taken care of quickly!

Trying to convince myself to use my small amount of sick time for something I know I can work through is hard. Try varying nerve glides or nerve flossing. I do the lay down leg up as high as I can and pump foot. Move head toward chin and back to help "pull" the nerve away from where it's stuck/squished. Pirifirmis foam rolling makes mine worse But you can also put a tennis ball under your butt laying down at first so you aren't putting as much pressure. can also be done sitting up or leaning agsinst wall so you can more easily take tennis ball to work with you and use it sitting on breaks. Move ball to where you feel tightness or pain in butt area.

DD1 has a friend over for the first time in 7 months and DD2 convinced them to play restaurant with her. 🤣🤦♀️ Luckily DD1s friend is a good sport. She has a little sister too.

We had a 2 hour delay but the kids are in school 🙌🏻 The roads actually aren't too bad today. My kids are going to my parents for the weekend and Sunday it's supposed to be in the 20s so they may actually get to go sledding finally.

I took the girls outside. They weren’t ready to come in so I left them outside where they played for another hour. It was amazing. 🤣

My 6YO finally has a loose tooth and he is so excited. I guess I better get prepared. I have no idea how long it will take to actually fall out? It's just a teeny bit wiggly as of yesterday.

It seems to vary a lot. My 7 year old lost her 3rd tooth yesterday at school and it had only been loose a day or two. But I remember my oldest had one that was loose for soooo long.

DS has had one loose (his first one) for a few weeks now. Two more have started to wiggle since, and none seem like they're loose enough to come out yet. It's been long enough since SD lost hers that I honest to God can't remember the timeline.

Like the first ones seem like they like to hold on forever. And then the last ones are like "why the hell are you still losing teeth at 12?!"

DS1 would leave them on the bathroom sink.

My 3yo got on his bike without training wheels for the first time today and just… totally got it right away. Of course praise goes to the balance bike he’s been riding in combination with his tricycle to learn the pedaling part. I’m kinda blown away by how good he did.

DD1 has rehearsal for her musical for the next 2.5 hours and it’s at just the right time where it would be annoying to go back home so I’m sitting in the parking lot debating a stroll around Target.

They have some great organizational stuff in the dollar spot currently* including the sets that will hold your aluminum foil, wax paper etc to fit in the drawer better. *locations may vary 😆

We have a subscription to Brewdog’s non alcoholic beer of the month club. We got our shipment today and the beers all froze and were at various stages of explosion when they got here. 4 six packs of exploded beers. 😱
Thanks for sharing your weather everyone!
