Word came down last night that tomorrow (today) all schools were canceled, businesses were closed, and Nick didn't have work. SNOW DAY!
Living in the South, they're not prepared in the least for snow, so they have to be overly cautious if they even
think that wintry weather
could be moving our way. Usually the snow misses us, and it's just a free day for kids and workers. This time, though ... we got hit! About 3 inches or so. Weeee!!!
The soft fluffy-ness didn't last very long before the freezing rain started hammering us; turning everything into ice. Not too mention the lightening and thunder storm that started up early in the process. I can't remember ever seeing lightening or hearing thunder while it snowed; and I'm from Wisconsin!!! But, with plastic bags wrapped around our socks, and cling wrap inside of our mittens, we braved the conditions. Oh... we sure did!
and we've just been told that Dad also has off tomorrow because of the weather!
(it is REALLY icy out there) |
