Feb. 19th, 2014 09:41 pmI have not exactly been the queen of posting this winter, mostly because people get tired of hearing the same thing every day (ie WHEN WILL WINTER END??!!). Basically, every day looks just like this:

This is at the park I drive by several times every day. I see all the sunrises and all the sunsets because of all the events before and after school (plus, just school--my district has no buses and I have five kids in school). It looks like a scene at the beach, doesn't it? Except...100 degrees colder. (It was -5 when I took this photo.)
Everyone who is not Lakota in this state is Norwegian, which pretty much means Elsa rules every day all the time. We've had 24 days since December where the HIGH did not get above zero, and some of those highs were in the double digits below. You remember Polar Vortex Round 1? We were in that bulls-eye where the windchills said -70. Don't talk to me about Antarctica.
Still. The snow is kind of pretty, as long as you don't touch the air too long. I've started running (all three days of it; today I had to rest so I don't get shin splints), and we're gone skating a couple times. We have the next two days off of school, and as long as it's above zero, we'll probably try skating again this weekend.
Needless to say, it's been a good winter for reading and writing. Speaking of, I have a kid waiting for me to finish off part 1 of Bedknob and Broomstick. Stay warm!
