I'm making Beef Vegetable Barley soup and a Hot Milk Cake! I'm okay with more snow but I really do feel bad for those who must go out in it.

Duh: if we get snow( still hoping for rain), my guess is they will go back Wednesday.

Then....

Dr F will plead his case for a waiver for the extra 4 days.

Wish the county took weather more seriously.
