FRIGID

It's another cold day, -47 and once again we are house bound. Pray that my children won't drive me too crazy!! It could have been -55 this morning! My sister-in-law Linda in Tok, said that it was -64 there yesterday! Count my blessings!! What about your blessings? What have you told God that you are thankful for today??
Bill and I had to go into town last night and when we took off in his truck, it felt like we were doing the 'caveman' thing!! Our tires were square! It took a couple of miles to warm them up so they will drive smooth again. The ice fog wasn't to bad but in the morning it was thick as pea soup I heard! There was some kind of accident and vehicles were backed up for miles! It is kind of scary to be driving in the ice fog and then all off a sudden there are brake lights in front of you! Did I mention that it has been slick here ever since it rained about three weeks ago? Do definitely pray for my husband and others as they travel these roads.
We went to Walmart to get milk etc. and then rented some videos so the kids have something to do after their chores.
It should warm up on Friday!! I feel sorry for the students and all the make up work that I am planning on giving them!!
When I went to start my van for Bill, I was wearing my long flannel robe, tennis shoes and my long coat, I was out there for about two minutes but it took me longer than that to warm up!
Once again, Bill just left for work and I am going to dive into my warm bed because it is quite chilly out here in the living room.
