Since I had to take the kidlet to school, we started out a little early and managed to beat the snow. But by the time I got home, big flakes were coming down. This pic was taken at about 8:00 AM.
After I started the laundry, I decided to go for my daily walk.
It was a mistake. This was what I looked like twelve minutes into my walk. The path was starting to get slick and I decided I didn't want to have a slip and fall accident in the middle of freakin' nowhere! YAY! Sanity rules!
But I took some pretty pictures.
The roads were coated with white within an hour, but as I didn't have to go anywhere until I had to pick the kidlet up, I was good. When I picked her up, the roads were just wet and we made it to the dentist's office with no problems.
The problems arose when I wanted to pick up a pizza for dinner. There were very considerate managers who didn't want their employees to risk life and limb in the bad weather--kudos to them! But it would have been nice if they had left a voice message on their business phones stating that they were closed. It would have made for a less frustrated Margaret!
So we made mini cheese pizzas with ciabatta bread and my homemade marinara. Yeah, good times.
I slept until 3:43 when a huge clap of thunder woke me up. We're now getting rain and the temps are flirting with the freezing mark.
Time to drive the kidlet to school. I think today will be an indoor writing day.
Later, Peeps!
