The pond at the back of the community we live in gets kind of pretty with snow around it~
The real reason I wouldn't leave the house this morning :)
Taking a walk in the cold fresh air with Samantha was fun! We took lots of pictures.
~ Angels are everywhere~
Fickle weather~ The forecast is ever changing. The snow and cold arrived as predicted. thankfully with a lot less drama than I expected. Knocking on wood cause it ain't over yet :)
I base my decision to stay home or make the drive to work on a couple of things, one of them is if school is closed or not. I was really surprised that my daughters school district was closed today. They are normally 2 hrs late when everyone else is closed or they are last to report. There isn't a lot of snow this morning but it is supposed get very cold by this afternoon and the drive home could become treachorous. I woke up around 4:30 and looked outside and there wasn't any snow so back to my cozy bed. When I woke up again a little after 5:30 the windows looked brighter so I checked outside again and lo and behold everything was covered and it looked like a blizzard outside. I was a little surprised because it happened so quickly. So here we are tucked away in our home for a bit. Matt will brave it and go in to Tacoma to work today. Why don't I have him drop me off? I am terrified of driving and riding in the snow and ice. I had a really traumatic experience about 23 years ago. I was in a rollover accident and then run over later the same day~ Not so fun, then two weeks later ... yeah, so I try and try to get over it but the fear just roars back to life no matter what I tell it :) It is pretty frustrating for me.
I just talked to Matt he got to Tacoma allright and swears it is 65 and sunny there phhh... He is selling me a bridge later too ;)
