• This morning it was wet and cold, but that was pretty much it so I went ahead and took Dmitry to school.  A short while later I headed for PepBoys, seeking to replace a splitting windshield wiper blade (when it's raining is the only time I notice it, so it's been like this for a few months now) in anticipation of worsening weather. 

  Fat lot of good that did me!  Got the new blade alright (the store was out of the replacement blades so I had to buy the whole thing), but then it turned out the windshield wiper blade was frozen, so it wouldn't release to allow the old one to be removed.  Have to wait for it to thaw out. 

  Driving back down Camp Bowie I noticed some kids dressed in the Eagle Academy manner waiting by a bus stop, so wondered....hmmm....    Decided to pull into the school's parking lot and just check, and was glad I did, as yup...they were closing the school and were certainly pleased to see me, since they'd been trying my home number and Dmitry couldn't remember my cell phone number. 

  It's lightly snowing now, which can barely be seen when looking at the street in the photo below:

  
  

  Not exactly a winter wonderland as seen from my front porch, eh?  It's in the 20's though so it's cold enough, that's for sure.

  I'm hoping Don is sensible and leaves work earlier than he normally does.
