No snow for us -- and certainly no snow days -- on the bright side, it is supposed to be 70 again by the end of the week.
It's such a novelty for us -- if we had it all winter long, we would be groaning, too, I am sure.
They were calling for two to four inches for us, but we didn't get anything in our county. Did you have a fun snow day with no snow?
I saw that! I was quite surprised because I was sure you would be out. I made the mistake of leaving the WSB site up that showed the 430 school closings listed.
When Connor saw it, he was so upset. I think he cried silently all the way to school. 
60's and 70's for us later in the week. I'm ready for it. My electric bill could use a break. If it's not going to be a snow day, then I'd like for it to be a warm day!
We're in some kind of belt here that wards off snow, I think. Very often, everyone around us will have snow, but our little belt will be snow-free. We'll be the lone county shining brightly on the morning weather map as going to school, and it really hurts! Whenever they finally do say our county, I watch it come on several times, just for the joy of seeing it and to really let it sink in.
Poor Connor. As you and I both know, his teachers were silently crying on the way to work, too. Every kid south of the KY-TN border deserves a few good snows like Dawn got. It gives them a chance to go wild with the sledding and snowball fights, snowmen and snow angels, and know the feeling of frozen cheeks and wet socks and the joy of a warm home and a mug of hot chocolate afterwards. Those are rare and treasured memories that every little Connor deserves to store away and reminisce about when they grow up. I know my kids have great memories of the few big snows we've had here.
One of our local weathermen comes to our school several times a week, because his wife is a teacher there. The kids always want to get mad at him when we don't get a snow day, and I have to explain that he
reports the weather, but doesn't
control it! I feel sorry for him when he walks in the back door on a day that other counties around us got snow days but we had to go to school. On the other hand, he's a real hero when he comes in and pretty much guarantees them (and their teachers) that the next day will be a snow day!
Maybe you can make up some kind of snow day party sometime to make it up to the kids. You can play some Eskimo games, put together a winter scene puzzle, watch Snow Buddies or some winter-themed movie, have snow ice cream (I've seen some in the stores, but forget which company makes it), and have hot chocolate and marshmallows. It might be as good as it gets for you in Georgia.
Or you could always pack your bags and move a couple of states to the north and get the real thing!
. Hope your kids enjoy it! We will probably be the only county with school tomorrow, too. 
Okay okay, so would it help if I told you my son let the door fly open when he came inside and with the gale winds, about a bucket of snow blew into my kitchen, along with a burly golden retreiver who then proceeded to run through the house running after my DS in his snow boots...
AARRHRHHGH! 
Lucky! Did you enjoy it?
I didn't see any at Target so I will look at
