    the temps have been dangerouly cold here. today was a minus 33 degrees. they had schools closed here. it would be to dangeriouys for kids to stand out in this kind of weather for the school buses. they would either wand up with frosr bite or hypedormia.
    i had to go to my daughters alot this week to watch brett. each and everydasy was extermaily cold. they didn't take him out in this weather at all. witch is good. he's just getting overt being sick.
    we have a foot and a half of snow that has fallen with in the las three day's. it's made it bad for driving to and from. there salting the roads but it's not taking effect because it's so cold outside. so it make's it for catious driving for when your coming home. it been a really rough week. hopefully next week it'll warm up some.
