Let it Rain?

Yeah, so our schools were cancelled today due to weather.

Ummmm....huh?  Folks, I live in WISCONSIN.  When our schools close due to weather, it's usually because we are getting dumped on with about a foot of snow or the temperature has plummeted so low that your boogers freeze inside your nose in the time it takes you to walk to the school bus.

But, RAIN?  What gives, Mother Nature?  Is this some kind of cruel joke?  I see Facebook photos from the little village we just moved from where my former neighbors are outside building massive snow forts today.  A friend of mine is going to walk to the Post Office today to mail her Christmas cards....in snowshoes.

Meanwhile, it rains.

My kids are a little bummed because they were really looking forward to this Snowpocalype that everyone told us was coming.  Instead of making snowmen and sledding, we are stuck inside.  Blech.  Actually, it's probably a good thing and here's why:

  
 My baby has pinkeye and an ear infection. 

If you need us, we'll be here.....listening to Christmas music and watching the *ahem* RAIN.  And administering eye drops and antibiotics.

What a strange day.
