Br-r-r-r!


This morning the temperature dropped to -31 degrees. We broke the record of -30 degrees. This is the first winter in four years that the temperature dropped into the minus thirties. The wind chill was -50 degrees. The kids' nylon jackets made a crackling sound as they entered the bus. My car didn't start. The pipes in the bathroom froze up and my school bus was so cold that the kids kept asking me to turn on the heat......which of course was already on. Br-r-r-r!
