"knuckle bump, brotha!"  fists shaking w potential energy met up high in the middle followed by a starburst of fingers as palms opened slow mo, drawing back in firework-like celebration worthy of chinese new year.  the fellas howled when we logged on to the disd site and saw the weather announcement and subsequent school closure notice.  sunday night  mason and jeremiah were giddy. they were more animated than usual, more smiley, more agreeable.  

it was awesome to behold and fun.  on day one. one is special.  one is rare. today is now day two. two starts to grow mold.  two makes movie marathons no fun. two throws me off my monk-like (eye roll) training schedule for the 400k just 3 weeks away.

my disd babysitter is on holiday.  i'm doing my first nation, clear skies,  back to school, no rain/snow dance,  and i'm a heck of a lot more convincing than mary mcdonnell, too. my braids are at least real.
