cold day, not nearly so bitter

today with the windchill it is best for us to round it off to 40 degrees below zero.... and i find myself on a 'cold day' off of school in the middle of the week. Last week, it was about -20's with windchill, and we still had school, over the weekend it got up to 45 degrees, and now here i am staying home from school because it's -40 with windchill. i'm perfectly fine with the cold weather today, because i slept in for an extra 3 hours, and am looking forward to eating lunch with a couple of other teacher friends.

so to those of you that are working today, because you live in warmer climates, i hope you understand that every once in a while there is a silver lining to living in unbelievably cold, crazy wisconsin.
