Snow day

Last week our office closed - along with the rest of the state - for what became known as the "Waldo Storm". As in, Where's Waldo? The storm never developed but the entire state had been shut down the night before in anticipation of the huge wallop we were going to get according to the meteorologists.

Instead, we got hit today. By the time we woke up this morning we had an inch or two of snow already and the roads were a horrible, slushy mess. I had a doctor's appointment at 8:30 a.m. and the trip to the doctor's and then the pharmacy and then home again was quite treacherous.

When Lincoln got home he told me that our neighbor had gotten in an accident up the street. Luckily she's not hurt but her car got it pretty bad. It sounds like she was basically in the same situation - and in the exact same location - as I was in last January but unfortunately when she spun around there was another car coming and she got T-boned.

Thank God I had Uncle Linus with me that day.
