Another Snowman

I didn't realize I've done two snowman jokes in a row until I looked at my picture history. I guess I've got them on my mind since we still haven't gotten enough snow this winter to build one.

It's another chilly day here, but Friday's forecasted high is 65 degrees. It's going to feel like an early summer after all of these single digit temps.

Bombogenesis

My little weather nut got to learn a new term this week: Bombogenesis. While he's excited, we've dipped into temperatures below zero. We had a snow day yesterday, even though we barely got a dusting of snow. I think it was just too cold for anyone to want to come in. We've got a two hour delay today and are sitting at a balmy -3 degrees when you factor in the wind chill. It's only  8 degrees regardless. So, Brrrrrrrrrrrr.

We didn't get enough snow to build a snowman, so I gave one to the boy in his lunch today.

Stay warm!

Whatever Floats Your Boat

I realized after drawing today's doodle that there is a very real chance the boy won't get it. I'm not sure he knows what a leek is.

Also, he's going to tell me this looks like celery. I can feel it.

Wop Bop a Loo Bop

Guys. It's cold outside. Like single digits cold. I know there are many colder places than this, but we usually don't dip down this low. Think we'll be driving to school today even though it's only a ten minute walk from our house.

After the shortest holiday week ever, we're going back to school today, which means you get new doodles. I figured we should start 2018 out with a bang. Well, more of a toot.

Happy New Year!

The Last of the Holiday Jokes

I can't believe I missed the last post before Winter Break. At least I remembered it now, and not once we've gone back to school.

The boy got to share this joke twice. He had it in his lunch at school, but he also packed a dinner to take to Parent Survival Night at The Little Gym last night. I love that he wanted to keep it in his lunch box.

Have a safe and happy holiday. See you in the new year :)

They Never Saw It Coming

Just look at these happy dinosaur faces. They have no idea their destruction is nigh.

I expected to explain this one, but the kiddos all got it. Even if my comet does look like Cousin It floating across the sky.

Squeezing in a few more holiday jokes

There's only three more school days left before Winter Break. No half day on Friday. I feel cheated out of a few precious hours.

Today's joke pays homage to a family tradition of mine. Ever since we were kids, my mom has stuffed an orange into the toe of our stockings. This only stopped because she no longer gives us stockings, not because we're too old for them, but because my family nixed giving each other gifts in lieu of taking holiday trips together.

Santa brings the boy an orange for his stocking every year too.

This orange is either having a great time, or a terrible time. I'll leave the interpretation up to you.
