a snow day!



Too bad this icy slop isn't sand....just in time for Christmas break we get an ice storm. My district loves to call off school shortly before most of us must check in. Judging from the amount of school closings crawling across the screen on the morning news I figured they'd call school off. It was. I slept in.

Snow north of us, lots of it 10 inches, we got the icy mix and south of us was just plain ice. Power wire snapping ice. Mark usually travels to Indy down the crash ridden I-65, but they sent him to St Paul instead, thank God. Rather drive in snow than ice. He'll be home tonight in time for rest. Tomorrow the birthday party. Liz and I have a bunch of errands to run. I do not plan on stepping foot on a school bus until January 4...

more snow...maybe we'll be done with winter by February...time to enjoy my FREEDOM!!!! And I get paid to sit home! gotta love a union job!

Looks like you are getting what we had here this time last week. Today we are getting pounded with snow, lol!

I'd say your strawberry pot looks a bit frosted. Is that how they make strawberry daquiris?

We get the icy mix all the time here in Kentucky... and oh isn't it fun to drive on? I am so glad school is closed and a snow day and the winter break is started for you!! Have a wonderful Christmas Rose!
