As Im typing we are *finally* having some reasonable snow falling - its
very pretty outside.

The day got off to a bad start when Katherine tumbled from the top of
the stairs to the bottom and bumped her head a little. Mostly she was
just shaken.

Last night all the melted snow we had yesterday had frozen and we had
the lightest covering of snow. It was like glass outside and it was my
day for taking the lad down the road into school as well. It was an
interesting walk. One child in each hand as we slithered to school. The
lad fell twice but was fine. I let the school know what had happened to
K in case she felt unwell later.

I went home, got changed and walked out in the falling snow to a job
interview. Its at a local preschool. When I got there, the lady had
forgotten I was coming!!!

 Anyway the place is really nice. Its an old preschool where all the
staff are changing and it will have a new supervisor (American) who has
lots of new exciting ideas. Effectively it will be a brand new
preschool. The supervisor has young children starting school and is in a
very similar position to me with school runs and what not. I will have
to start a training course come September, but I expected that.

I am really excited about the prospect. The supervisor wants me to go
again for an interview when she has a job application form, so that
sounds pretty positive. I hope I get it :)))

Ah well, I ought to go and get on with the class tsunami blanket that
the kids have been making at school. I said I would finish it off :-/
