I have not seen snow like this since I left New York 19 years ago!!! I really love it! I would love it even more if I didn't have to be out in it twice today. I was planning on doing my xmas shopping until I realized how bad the roads were. I had to go rescue my daughter because her car broke down, and by broke down I mean ran out of gas, GGGEEEEZZZ, and she wants to be treated like an adult, what adult do you know runs outta gas at least once a month, ok that's another blog matter. Anyway she broke down on MacArthur just east of Maize. We live at Maize and Kellogg so I thought no problem I'll just run down and get her. hahahahahahaahah it took me over an hour to get her and get back home. I couldn't see anything and my windshield and wiper blades kept freezing up even with the defroster running full blast. I get home and get stuck in the damn drive way. I finally get it unstuck and safe and sound in the garage, sit on my big butt and the phone rings. Tracy's mom is stuck on K42 and Tyler, Mom is freaking out so I go to get her. Still can't see a damn thing but this time I figured out how to put the car in 4 wheel drive, BIG DIFFERENCE!!! Well I'm driving 5 mph can't find her. Then this car had just stopped in the middle of k42 to clear windows, guess who? That's right mom. She's on the phone with Tracy and so am I. Mom is freaking out so we decide to pull into Cessna Employees Credit Union and she gets stuck in the driveway, ggggrrrrr. Heath, Tracy's hubby, pulls up behind me, tries to get her out, no luck. We leave her car there till the snow stops and we can get a tow truck to pull her out. I'm already out so I decide to try and get to the bank, I make it with 5 minutes to spare of them closing, AND THE FR*^*&&& CLOSED EARLY!!!!!!!!!!! Ok not a problem I'm out, we need food, Dillons is right up the road. Got a little grocery shopping done and head home. Now I'm sitting here in my pj's getting ready to go downstairs and scrap the night away. I will have to go xmas shopping tomorrow. I WILL NEVER LET IT GO THIS LATE AGAIN!! How dumb am I???!! (that is a retorical question, EVERYONE)
So everyone stay in, stay warm and scrap the night away. Make sure to take pictures of this snow, it may be another 19 years or more before we see it like this again.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
