Sleepy little children

Our decision was made for us last night by the fact that Skibo went to sleep on the floor well before we were going to try to walk home, and Boo was in no frame of mind to walk a couple of miles through snow.

We made up for it this afternoon by walking back to the flat and then back again to the house.  Through the snow.  Up hill both ways, as they say.  Actually, one way was mostly downhill, but we took a detour to go to the store, so that way actually took longer than the return journey.

Fortunately this evening the snow was melted enough that we were able to get a taxi, for about as much as, or perhaps just a little more than, the bus would cost.

So now we are snuggled up in the flat, trying to persuade children to go to sleep (LOML and me) or trying to be as obnoxious and annoying as possible to parents (Boo and especially Skibo).

Yours, (twenty minutes later) finding the little ones particularly irksome right now,
N.
