A Homeschooling Benefit
As I mentioned in the previous post, Deb’s favorite meteorologist says we’re going to get 7 - 10” of snow by tomorrow morning. Ugh. Barry Burbank has slightly lower expectations, but either way, it looks like both the record snowfall for January and for a single month will be broken during this storm. Well, for Boston, which means Logan, and it’s possible for most of us to get a lot more than they measure at Logan, so who knows.
This sucks.
I have a great deal of sympathy for the idea of moving to a warmer climate, but if we do, it’ll be years away, when I am in more of a position to do so.
Anyway, score another one for homeschooling. They’re now talking about having kids make up the snow days on weekends or parts of vacations, so they’re not in school half the summer. Yet if you’re homeschooling, cancellations due to snow are moot. Speaking of words people confuse; moot and mute are two completely different things. I laugh when someone says “it was a mute point.” But I digress.
But then I guess in Texas or Florida, even such mootness would be moot, given the minimal chances of snow days there.
Another definite benfit!
