It's October 18th, there is 8 inches of snow, and it's still coming down! The tundra with snow:
There's been snow on the ground for a few days now, but it's super deep today because it snowed all night. I woke up this morning determined to go out and enjoy the snow, and enjoy it I did! Upon walking outside I discovered that the snow is perfect for packing. After a short snowball fight with Dennis, I spent 45 minutes making a snow man of monstrous proportions. Dennis helped me pick up the heavy parts. Here it is all said and done:
Then Jon stopped in between running errands in the snow, I feel the need to document his ketchup and mustard getup.
My roommate and I went down the hill today, got gas, had no mail, and grabbed a few groceries. Driving in the snow is sweet!
I guess that's pretty much it, this week went a little faster I think. Had a couple long nights up at the school trying to get work done. I'm starting to feel settled, which is comforting. I guess the shock of the move is finally starting to wear off, thank goodness.
Oh there is one more thing that happened this week, I worked open-gym Thursday night (we charge people $1 to use the gym after school, we rotate through the staff for volunteers) and a kid broke one of the windows. I had to call the police and keep kids from cutting their arm off on broken glass. I found out later that it was a 2nd grader who broke it, for real. They have some tough kids around here.
Ok, on that note, happy day to you all!
