A Good Ole Snow Day!

Today was our first snow day of the year and let me tell you, all of NC is super pumped about it. (Ok, I can't speak for every person, but I know A LOT of happy folks today!) Winston-Salem got more snow than was predicted and it looks beautiful. Sooo beautiful. After the snow finally stopped, I would calculate 6-8 inches of glorious white snow for our area. You Northerners may think 6-8 inches is nothing, but down here in the South, it's enough for the governor to call a State of Emergency! School will probably be out for the rest of the week, so that makes three snow days for us. I am loving it right now, but you can bet I'll (all teachers) will be whining up a storm when we have to make up these days. I'm really going to try and remember this exultation today and NOT complain when we are going longer in June than we should be. I woke up at 5:45 this morning, looked out the window and there was basically a ground covering of snow so I went back to bed with high hopes...
