Still no snow here yet...

Just started here Flower.

Any minute for you......

Good to know, thanks.

I am wavering between it wanting to start earlier, and hoping the roads will be clear in the morning...or later, and hoping that I get the day off. Most likely, it will start later, the roads will be a mess, and I'll still have to go in. It seems to be the way this winter!

I am really hoping to have a snow day. I can work from home.

I can too, as long as it's bad enough to justify it. We already have the green light to go in 2 hours late or leave 2 hours early, that's the policy when there is a winter storm warning. As long as we get a decent amount, I can work from home. But even better, if the state closes, we close...a girl can dream!

The state closing is a long shot.

But you can dream!

It's 16° here in Topeka right now, 4° with the wind chill.

I can't complain a lot. I missed the really bad weather and it will be 67° in Denver tomorrow.

We're supposed to get around a foot. Normally I tough it out but today I just didn't feel like dealing with it. It's coming down sideways, it's supposed to get worse as the day goes on, and I just said, "screw it, I'm too old for this crap!"

What usually happens is they decide to open, we drive in crap, then it gets worse and they close, sending us home in even worse crap. I'm just not playing that game today. (Is my crankyness showing today?)

Yep, the PTB sit around discussing whether to disrupt the lives and economy of an entire area, and the rationale goes, "If it stops RIGHT NOW, we'll be fine." Then it doesn't stop, so the discussion changes to, "If it doesn't stop by noon, we'll close." Then it doesn't stop by noon. THEN the discussion changes to, "Let's close RIGHT NOW and get everybody home by dark." And as Vettech points out, things are much worse, and many people don't make it home by dark.

I remember the first winter storm we had after I started working at Mecca. It was New Year's night 1999, and amazingly, despite snow/ice/slush, garbage coming down like crazy that evening, everyone but the guy who lived 30 miles away made it in to work. The manager decided that after the truck was unloaded (2 hours) that due to the bad weather we could go home if we wanted to. I was one of 5 who stayed. I don't understand why you'd want to leave and drive home in that nasty crap at midnight, when it would all be past by quitting time at 7:00, and it'd at least be light outside.....

Sometimes tricky situations like this make people make some really ignorant decisions....

I have dug a foot of snow out of my driveway this morning.

It is now snowing again.

I will be in Florida on Friday.

The End.
