School Cancelled!!

I woke up this morning to a downpour!

It is Monday January 21st, and school has been cancelled for the yr7, 8, and 9 classes. (The grade 10's and 11's have to come in) The reason for this is that the school is undergoing a new building project. 1/3 of the new school is complete and therefore these classrooms are not flooding or leaking. All other classrooms, in the old build or in the mobile village, seem to be suffering different types of water damage with the downpour outside. All classes in the mobile village have been moved into the main build and this is keeping the students and teachers dry.

I've been told that cancelling school due to flooding on the school campus is not infrequent. This has been a really nice day for catching up on an the little details that slip to the side.

Sounds like it's raining a lot out your way. Here we are in the deep freeze. On Jan. 27th the temp. went down to -50 with wind chill. It's been some better since but still staying in the -30 plus. There is a promise of some respite tomorrow. I sure hope so as this is terrible. I'm beginning to think that a winter of rain would be better. Keep smiling...Mom

Its not that rain that gets me, but the wind. I've never seen such wind as they get here in England on a daily basis.
