Obviously if I am posting, I must have time off from school. Indeed!! I have officially passed nursing school and I graduate Friday night!! It is sad that you can't really tell that from the photo - no nurses hats for us! They don't allow them anymore and they don't require anything white except the jacket. No explanation for this because none was offered to us. I am so relieved and ready for a break from studying! It will only last a couple of weeks because I start classes at UW this summer - but a break is a break! From what I hear, the summer classes I have are a breeze compared to what I just finished. My husband and children can once again speak in normal volumes in our home and dare to speak to me while I am holding a book in my hands (I plan to do A LOT of recreational reading the next couple of weeks!!)
Campbell County children are going to school until June 4 due to the 5 snow days that we had. I figure that gives them about three weeks of doing nothing but driving the teacheres crazy, watching movies or playing outside. Not quite sure why they bother making up the days - grades have to be turned in on the 28th of May (or at least that is what I was told). Oi!! Gotta love the system! Otherwise, kids are great. Husband is great. Life is good. We are blessed!

I have time to post pictures - yes, we are having yet another snow day! This is one (or possibly two) too many for me! The kids are happy and in fact prayed for another day off last night. I, on the other hand, was routing for the college to stay open because they are not very adept at accommodating days off into our schedule. We had 30 minute power lectures on Friday (to make up for last Monday) and were scheduled for the 30 minutes slams again today (to make up for last Fridays overflow) so....what will they do now? I have no idea but am filled with fear and trembling at the prospect.The snow accumulation does not look to be as bad as last week. This seems to be a more traditional Gillette blizzard with moderate snow and lots of wind to blow it around. Most of the time it is snowing side ways. We should have a beautiful spring!
