Do not want!
Feb. 10th, 2010 08:12 amOkay, this is just ridiculous. More snow, looking like someone reversed us back a couple of days. The trees that were clear of snow are bowed down again. Gusty winds. Schools scrambling to close. Household members frustrated.
When I let the dogs out at 2:30 this morning (sigh), it was still rain.
When I went to walk Kay at 5:45 this morning, it had finally turned to teeny snowflakes. The branches of the mock orange shrub outside the back door were coated in a thin layer of ice that had not been there at 2:30.
When I looked outside at 7 this morning just as I was finishing my breakfast and having to get ready to go catch the bus into the city, the flakes were huge and clotting everything. Probably three-quarters of an inch had already accumulated.
I made the executive decision not to try and go out, and now (a little after 8) it's looking like I made the right call, though it troubles me not to be dependable and show up for work regardless. One of my backups is in and will handle the mail and case management that's the backbone of a law office. I'm just gonna sit here and watch the snow blow around through my workroom window.
Oh, and play doggie doorman. Kay wants back outside to catch more squirrels. *g*
