Cold Weather Update

Consider this a P.S. from my last entry:

Even though Annika has finally recovered, there's been no school Monday and Tuesday due to the cold. The past two days, around 7am, my thermometer (with the remote sensor on the north side of our house) has read -20 and -22. I don't know if the sensor is affected by wind, so there's part of me that doubts those temps a little bit, but I do know that I've never seen a temp that low on the thermometer before.

With all the illness and school and church cancellations, the girls haven't so much as been outside the house since last Wednesday. I'm supposed to take them and two cats to the vet this morning, though.
