Coco has it right on the money:

Man to be a kid in the south. Granted, the country ice-covered roads are a good reason to close the schools in wintry weather, but the kids in my hood have it made. For serious they could go to the movies if they have transportation and the inclination. They are not homebound.

She takes a stroll down memory lane about snow days in New York. It sounds similar to memories my husband, who grew up in New Jersey, has about winter wonderlands.

SistaSmiff threw caution to the wind and went to work anyway!

The newspeople made it sound like the Blizzard of the Century…”DON’T leave home unless you HAVE to” they said…all a’twitter.

I think it took me 15 minutes to get to work and I live in one of the “hard hit” counties.

The newspeople SistaSmiff referred to must have had Middle Tennessee confused with East Tennessee. Go take a gander at what’s going on in K-ville.

BlondeMom wonders:

The girls woke up and ran to the front window, although we really just have a dusting of snow. What is it with the wimpy snow in Nashville the past few years?…it’s kind of nice for winter to have one last hurrah, even if it is kind of wimpy. At least the girls get to stay home for the day

For Ivy, today’s snow means everyone must go to the doctor with her!

We got another snow day today, which would normally be great, but I have another appointment at the gynecologist’s office today. … The problem is that because of the snow, I don’t feel comfortable leaving everyone at home with my 13 year old. That means I have to bring everyone with me to the appointment. This should be fun.

Emily of On Awesome Avenue took a picture of the fluffy white stuff at her house:

Well…that’s a quite bit more than at my place!

Tennessee Mom has pics at her place, too.

More as I find them…

I’ve got one over at Love Shak, Baby about having to bring all the kids to my ultrasound:

Thanks for the heads up! I’ve added it!

I posted a pic up at my site. It’s the first snow my kids could actually play in this year - and it’s gone now.

How do I get added to the MCB blogroll? I emailed months back and never heard anything.
