Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow...

...except when I'm driving to/from work...

We were allowed to leave work an hour early yesterday as a winter storm was moving in and had dropped snow and was bringing ice later. I made it home with no trouble. Well, it rained/sleeted for most of the night. I started about 6:30 a.m. this morning and could not get up the hill on our street. I saw the plow come through, then decided to try again. This time, even worse results. I then got word that our company was not going to open until 10:00 a.m. I decided to try again about 7:45 a.m. and, after backing all the way down the street, got a running start and made it! The roads were not good. Oh, by the way, it had started snowing by now, too. Big flakes, then it was snowing like crazy...about an inch per hour. Fortunately for us, it stopped by late morning. Now, the sun is out (occasionally), and the road crews should be able to make some progress by the time I'm ready to head back home (actually by the time they let me go home). Everything looks beautiful, though!

Thank you, Jesus, that I still have a job to go to during days like this (or any day for that matter)!
