Remember those days at the end of summer, the ones during the few weeks before school was ready to start? The days after you'd done pretty much all you could think to do in one summer? The ones you spent lying on the floor, staring up at the ceiling fan until its rotation appeared to reverse in what is one of the most exciting optical illusions ever, mostly because you discovered it on your own when you were bored to tears?

All of this is how Tulsa-area kids are starting to feel. If school is out tomorrow (and many speculate that, with another heavy blanket of snow on its way to Green Country, it will be), it'll be the seventh straight snow day for our students.

When you're of school-going age (or a parent of a child who is), people, seven days might as well be an eternity.

Breathe in, breathe out. Here's something to do as a family that could help take some of the edge off.
