Although it is cold enough here that ski club was canceled last night, it’s not nearly as cold as predicted today. It’s a balmy -20 with wind chill and the kids are pissed because school wasn’t canceled. Even with all their preparations which consist of wearing their pajamas backwards and inside-out with one sock they still had school. I can never remember which foot the sock is suppose to go on so maybe there was an error there that caused school to be held. As far as I’m concerned -20 is still REALLY, REALLY cold. I would like it to be about 60 degrees but I’m guessing I have about 3 months before that happens. The only good news is the sun, it shines today. Of course it’s too cold to go out and soak it up but still, sun.

In more earth shattering news…

Since the children were scheduled for ski club last night and weren’t suppose to be home until 8:30 & 9, I made a hair appointment. My kind babysitter (and dear friend) was wonderful enough to let the littles spend an extra hour at her house so that I could still get my hair cut and Jeff could pick up the kids. Also someone, not sure who, gave Tyler a ride home from basketball. So I got my hair cut. And… I now have bangs. B.A.N.G.S. I can’t remember the last time I had bangs. Seriously, BANGS people. This is huge. I think I like them. And no, no picture for you so don’t even ask. My hair is also quite a bit shorter on top because I’m trying to grow out the red that I dyed it. I’ve re-dyed it “French Roast” but the red is still peeking through. It wouldn’t really matter except everyone who knew me when I was blond (my whole life until I had children) thinks I should go blond again instead of the increasingly dark shades I’ve been doing. If I lighten it now it will turn orange so I must wait. I am too old for orange hair. And no, I’m not gray at all. I dye because I bore easily.

Now I must really get to work.
