snow all gone LOL

Hmmm went to bed with the snow still falling and over an inch on the road and pavement...Woke G up at 7am and there was still some snow on the ground so put local radio on to listen for school closures...There are a lot of schools closed today in the shire but there was only 2 announced closed in the city...But G's school could be open but his transport not running...His taxi firm are so useless they don't inform the local radio so i phoned his taxi escort...She hadn't heard anything but said she would phone when or if his taxi turned up...She phoned at 7.30 to say the taxi had just arrived at hers...So he got his coat on and sat waiting...M was not impressed to say the least when i woke him up at 8am to say he had school...He tried to say he had a sore tummy and i had given him my tummy bug...Hmmm i hadn't and he was fine...I've just phoned the school to see if they could know why...Only thing his teacher can think of is he sometimes doesn't cope well with doing music at the local high school...He's been fine today apart from going there...Him trying to skive off school is actually an achievement but not one i can actually praise him for LOL...Had a bad headache again so went back to sleep once the boys left...When i got up our snow had gone and we had pouring down rain and high winds instead :o(  As i started this entry we had sleet but it's gone now too...The wind has died down and the sun has come up although it is still cold...If you watch the news and see lots of snow in aberdeenshire that doesn't mean the city itself has any...Most of the places they show on the news are 15, 20, 30 miles away from the actual city itself

K has been to the doctors again today and is now waiting on results from blood tests...Am not entirely sure what all they are testing for but the nurse took a lot of blood from her...At least she has youth parliament meeting in edinburgh this weekend to cheer her up :o) ...She switched on her webcam and put it up to her window...Very pretty winter wonderland on the trees...Snow everywhere and beautiful...Hope she wraps up warm with her long sheepskin coat on...If i say anything i'll get 'MOTHER' back at me <ggg> G going to see harry potter had to be cancelled last night so now both him and M are going on saturday morning with andy instead...Hopefully andy can take G to the footie next weekend...It's a big game with celtic <grrr> playing aberdeen...I don't really want to go and see that match LOL...Going to go and make a nice hot cup of coffee to heat me up

Toodle pip for now tc xx

Hi Caff,  Hope the snow don't last too long...I know parts of Scotland have heavy snow...., we have a little down here in Norfolk....but not too much, it makes driving so dangerous....Hope K's blood tests turn out OK...Take care....Ally

Really annoys me when schools close because of a bit of snow.  Last year Scotts school had to close because the teachers couldn't get in as it was bad driving!!!  Well if us homecarers had that same attitude, all the old folks wouldn't get medications meals and personal care, it's so unfair i think they just make excuses!  Glorious sunshine here today, no snow which i am pleased about :)
