A rare occurrence of snow is initially cause for celebration at our house. But the truth is, the south is just not prepared to deal with the conditions that render driveways, side streets, secondary roads and even interstates impossible to drive on for days.

So while precipitation of the frozen variety was fun on Day 1, and Day 2 was enjoyable, it's now Day 3 and Day 4 looms with little promise of change. We've grown kind of weary of the cold and ice, the limited groceries and even the no school.
In the last 72 hours, one or more of us has done a few things not normally part of our routine, including, but not limited to:
worked on a Science Fair project
baked brownies
shoveled the deck and sidewalk
done several loads of laundry
figured out On Demand and watched Other Guys (we give it a 5)
reorganized the laundry room
gone sledding
finished our thank you notes
taken naps
 |
| Work begins in earnest on the Science Fair project. |
 |
| Looks like a winner to me! |
With any luck and some assistance from Mr. Sun and the DOT, we'll be back to our standard operating procedure by Friday.
