For my friends and family who read my blog who live in Washington it is hard for you to understand how when it snows here in Utah life just goes on. When it snows in Washington (not Spokane) life stops for a few days and then continues on after the snow melts.
Here in Utah we get up and drive out on snowy days with the roads worn down to bare pavement but snow everywhere else. And it is so cold yet we carry on.
So this week I walk to work in boots carrying shoes in 20 - 23 degree weather and these past 3 days we have had a hurt child every day. Monday they carried one in from recess with a hurt leg. Tuesday one fell and needed 6 stitches and yesterday, Wednesday, one came in with a broken arm. It really adds to the stress of working in the office.
Added to this stress is the fact that I had 14 new children the first 2 days with 2 more coming I know about and 6 leaving and 4 that changed from A to B track to B to A track. This means my class binder is a mess! I will get to that today.
