Oh my. It’s Snowing…

Oh my. It’s snowing, and they’re predicting a total of more than six inches. In my home state of Minnesota, this would be nothing. In my adopted state it’s a problem. Given the limited number of plows in my county (and none in the city), it makes driving dangerous. I don’t want to go to work tomorrow, but I’m out of days off. So I’ll be driving slowly, like a little old lady.

It’s supposed to be sunny tomorrow so the snow will melt, at least enough to make driving okay by the time I leave work. At least, that’s what I’m counting on.

It is pretty though, so I might as well enjoy the beauty today, when I don’t have to drive.

I would prefer a white Christmas. Since Christmas lands on a Friday, we’d have a weekend for the roads to clear. Maybe we’ll get that, too.

Oh my. It’s snowing.

(oh my…when I posted this, I got a notification that this is post number 500. That’s a lot of writing, most of which I did a few years ago. Thanks to all my loyal followers and those of you who drop in from time to time as well. It means a lot to me.)

  1. It looks beautiful! Isn’t it funny that down here in the south, snow throws the cities into a panic? We’ve had days off from work due to snow. Any chance of that happening for you? Be careful on the roads, Belinda–watch out for the other guy!

    2. Sometimes they shut down because of snow. In this case I doubt they will, although any schools that are still open (and I’m not sure there are any; COVID has shut most of them down) will close. They don’t want the bus drivers facing dangerous conditions. I can hope for a shut down but it’s more likely half of my colleagues will call in and the rest of us will be swamped with work and worried all day about driving home.
