Well it was a VERY WINTRY week around these parts, for heaven’s sake.
I’m simultaneously not thrilled, and also happy about not leaving my house. We

The ice event actually did dump a good bit of ice in our area.

I didn’t go to work – I wasn’t sure I’d be able to make it up to the main road! Dr. M worked very hard to make sure I was warm and cozy.
Daisy has Ohio winter muscle memory & served Dr. M well in getting out to see his dad.

My mall walking T-shirt.
It’s just been like that around here (you’ll be glad to know that I still haven’t eaten all of these M&Ms.
At the end of the day I looked out the bathroom window at work & saw this near miss. I mean, technically I’m in the line, but still…
Our second wintry event started overnight on Friday and we ended up with about 6-7” of snow. Very pretty, but for heaven’s sake (I repeat myself). It finally stopped late in the evening & today (Sunday) it’s been sunny.
No church today, and I will probably operate on a 2-hour delay for work tomorrow (waiting on the temps to get up into the teens – it’s going to be VERY COLD tonight!). I’d like the weather gods to know that I’m good now – no more ice & snow. Pitchers & catchers report next week!!
I wondered how much snow you'd gotten. In fact, I even checked your weather forecast to see what was up (or down, in the case of snowflakes). It sounds like you survived pretty well. I laughed at the M&Ms. I did some serious damage to some cookies while we were iced in, and probably would have gotten more if I'd been able (or willing) to get out. The same thing happens with hurricanes. Tell me bad weather's coming, and junk food becomes a necessity.
ReplyDeleteWe're finally above freezing, so I took the plants outside this afternoon and watered them well. It looks like we have several days in the 40/60F range, so they'll be fine, and if they have to come back in, at least they'll have had a drink.
I love the photo of Heather!
I've got those M&Ms sitting on my desk even now. So far I've just side-eyed them, but I'm sure I'll dig in soon!
DeleteThank goodness for Arizona, eh?
ReplyDeleteYES!
DeleteUnbelievable! You know, the Puritans would say that it was God's punishment on all of you for your sins.
ReplyDeleteFunny how there aren't any more Puritans left, at least actual ones.
That is odd, isn't it? Also weird that God would punish me by not letting me go to church. Oh woe is me - I have to stay home!
DeleteI was going to say it looked like you had just a thin layer of snow until I got to the second set of pictures. I do not get the appeal of snow. It's cold and wet and when you are out in it you are cold and wet. Warming here finally! and Another is you have the best t shirts.
ReplyDeleteI just ordered a few more t-shirts - I don't want to repeat myself!
DeleteWow, you are having quite the wintry experience. It's like Ohio all over again, right?
ReplyDeleteFor you, that's an excellent parking job! :)
Definitely reminding us of winters in Xenia!
