Tuesday, Day 17 - Preparing for the big storm...

Pretty good morning this morning, even though it was 14 degrees standing out waiting for the bus, Liz says the little kids were good, even though Jacob tried to test her this morning but he stopped, After work, I got home about 5:30, Amy was here feeding the kids, she stayed a while until about 6:30, then I got the little kids to bed, Jesse has had this flap of skin on his big toe for the past few days so I decided to cut it off, I got most of it, while he was screaming in terror, then he decided to throw a fit, so I shut his door, after a while of screaming, I went in with the scissors in hand and told him if he isnt quiet I will cut the rest of his toe off, meaning the flap of skin but I think he got the point, he quickly quieted down, before this Jacob was a little defiant when I told him it was bed time, so I escorted him to bed, where he started crying, I think he is missing his mommy more and more, but I kept reminding him that she would be home soon. Well, its supposed to start snowing at 3AM here, supposed to get 3-7 inches in the next couple of days, our pipes at our house are starting to freeze, and our fridge stopped working, hope its just the breaker, Liz says its colder in our house than it is outside. I've only been there 2 times this month. The temp is supposed to stay below freezing until monday, when it hits a high of 33 degrees! I either hope it snows a tiny bit or a whole lot, so the kids either go to school or I get a day off work too.
