Texas Weather

Our weather is seriously out of whack. So far today we have had rain, sleet, and snow. We're under a winter storm warning, but we will have to get out in the yuckiness no matter what this afternoon to pick the kiddies up from school. Evan is likely to be in a mood because his Super Friends club is cancelled for today, althought the awesome club sponsor has already planned a lunch meeting for tomorrow with treats and the club activity to for her charges. Tomorrow night Evan is signed up for the middle school boys' retreat at our church which is supposed to camping outdoors overnight and paintball on Saturday. I foresee the weather being an issue. As stated previously, the boy is likely to be in a grand funk.
One hour later:
Evan called asking us to pick him up an hour and a half before school was due to be dismissed from the special needs room. I can just imagine the fun if all the Autistic kiddies discovered the weather outside. Our street was icy enough to cause me to slide a couple of times so we went ahead to pick up our girls from elementary. It took over half an hour to pick up three kids from two schools that are a maybe three-quarters of a mile apart because many other parents were doing the same thing. I dropped DOn and the kids off at home before heading back out after some basic groceries just in case tomorrow is as inhospitable outside as today. Typical Texas weather--- yesterday I was wearing short sleeves! Today I am bundled up in a heavy sweater and sweatpnats to ward off the cold!
