i am not too happy with all of the snow today...
Carol · Jan. 12, 2011
looks like we got about 6 inches and while it is very pretty to look at..it just means more work for everyone...or maybe i should say for someone(s)....first call in today...down one staff person so far....we shall see if anyone else makes it in to work today...i might well be "it"...oh well... i should know within the next hour and we shall see how much today actually sucks.
in the mean time..i am trying to decide if i can risk going down the hill for breakfast...there are things i need up here today...like milk for the cats and fruit for the barn that i should have picked up yesterday. might be a good way to test my new little car in some pretty decent snow..as long as i can get back up the hill!
oh how adventuresome am i today?...hmmm i wonder...they must have plowed stave lake....mission is pretty good that way.
helga just called she said it is raining and freezing down the hill right now...hmmm again...that might change things a bit....icy roads when going down really steep hills can be tricky.
big sigh...i am so not a big snow fan with so many animals to care for while living up on little mountain...it just makes life doubly difficult.
i am pretty sure the only folks who truly like snow are the ones who have nothing that they actually have to do when it snows really hard.
i wish i had nothing to do today.
update...yay!!! ryan made it...eryk is coming to help...dionne made it (after carol anne went and picked her up from where she was stuck) and helga is here too....we are going to be ok today..it won't suck too badly...ok it will still suck quite a lot cuz it is HARD working in a ton of wet and heavy snow but still..yay for the winter warriors!
congrats Mo on staying out of the ditches in your new van. Dionne wasn't so lucky but no harm done except for $ and frustration. Enjoy and be safe.
