FOR TODAY
Looking out my window… a frigid day makes for some pretty ice fog as the sun slowly rises. It was -47oF when we got up this morning.
I am thinking… It may be super cold, but life goes on. Caleb leaves this morning for a hockey tournament in Big Lake. Matthew walked over to the school for his Trek class this morning. Scott will be taking a break every couple hours at work to start the car and warm it up again. Tomorrow the Copper Basin 300 dogsled race will be starting out front of the KCAM studios.
I am thankful… for a warm house and the thick plastic over the dining room windows providing that extra barrier between us and the cold. I’m also thankful that our van’s battery died last weekend while we were in town (with warmer temps) rather than this weekend and for a warm garage for Scott to work in when making sure the van is ready for these low temps.
One of my favorite things… the white chocolate truffles in my Christmas stocking.
I am hearing… 10:30 – the dryer running, a few kids playing Mobi
In the schoolroom… the transition back to school after a two week break has gone fairly smoothly this week.
A moment from my life…
