Mother Nature has given us a snowy Valentine this year. Actually, a snowy Valentine wouldn't be bad, it's the ice and freezing rain that suck. Yesterday was beautiful with the snowflakes falling. Last evening, things turned ugly. After dinner, sleet began to tap on the windows like a bunch of long nailed mice running on tissue paper. You could hear lots of little tippy taps hitting the side of the house. This morning we awoke to a freezing rain and unpassable streets. Hubby called off work because he couldn't get the car out of the driveway and Princess didn't have school. I spent the day waiting on the few brave (crazy or desperate) people who came to pick up thier orders. Everyone said the same thing about the roads--"They are horrible and people don't know how to drive in this."

Poor hubby, he worked most of today digging the cars out. He's feeling worn out. He says that at least he can get out of the drive tomorrow to go to work. I'm just hoping the roads don't freeze up too much.

Princess on the other hand, had a blast today. She and her buddies spent the day sledding in the back yard and having snowball fights. She's going to sleep very well tonight and I'm sure her buddies will be sleeping well. I already saw the notice that school has been canceled again tomorrow. Yippy, another day of wet clothes all over the living room.

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!
