The Weather Outside is Frightful

Okay, so by what I've listed as where I live on my blog, you can tell I don't like putting personal info online. But I will say one thing: Where I live? THE SNOW WON'T STOP!!! My school is limited to three snow days a year; we've probably covered snow days for the next FOUR years. And it's only January!
In my area, when it snows, it snows. Our school board is made up of complete worry-warts, which doesn't help the matter. Yesterday morning, they called off school before the snow even started to fall. At 8 a.m., there wasn't a snowflake to be seen and buses arrive at school at 7:15. Why so cautious? And now that the snow really came down yesterday afternoon, guess who's closed again today?
Now, don't get me wrong, I love snow-to a point. I like that dreamy snow that just lightly dusts everything to make it look like it came from a storybook. I'm not sure I like the up-to-your-knees snow. Especially when I have to clean it off my Schnauzer when he comes in from outside. He looks like the Abominable Snow Dog whenever he goes out. Poor thing.
Another thing I don't like about snow is the cabin fever. I can't drive yet, so I'm stuck inside. (Not that I'd drive in this) I end up going crazy with boredom, or 'lack of imagination' as my mom calls it. So I'm either stuck with all-day chores, being lazy, or living on my piano-the piano part being totally okay.
Although, I must admit, I love watching the snow. Especially when it's nighttime and the street lights hit it just right so it looks like it glitters. How can something so beautiful have so many downsides? Just wonderin'...
