snowpocalypse!!!


Well, if I have to choose.
More on how the world is totally ending in another post


I know what you're thinking - super creative post title, right?

There is no better made up word for what we're dealing with here.  DAYS of being ICED in.  I made excuses for our condition - Southern states don't have budgets for snow covered roads; therefore, it will take a bit longer than usual to clear everything up..................... three days later, I'm slowly retracting my comments.  Today the husband and I ventured out for lunch.  I'd had enough.  After three days of being captured in my house, all I want to do is redecorate.  A trip to Ikea is HAPPENING on Sunday (I suggested we do that for our "date day" this week - more on that later). 

Tonight, while I say my prayers, I'm going to throw in a plead for work to happen tomorrow.  I MUST get dressed and report somewhere for my sanity.  I thought it'd be really funny to take a picture of day 1, day 2 and day 3 - we could all have a chuckle about how all the stupid white stuff is still there.  I can finally see some grass in our back yard.
The problem with all of this is today everything started melting, but all the melted snow/ice will freeze again tonight.  Tomorrow when I need to leave the house at 7, I'll be super scared because I don't know how to drive on ice.  I don't even know how to walk on it, so this could get interesting.  Wish me luck.

my parents and my brother actually all went back to work today, but they work in conyers, forest park & winder. roads must be a little better that way. i hope they clear up though- it's no fun being all cooped up, but being from ga and now living up here and hearing about all the mayhem has been pretty funny. i can handle driving in snow now, but ice is what terrifies me, and i hear the roads are just a layer of ice! anyway, it's little guys bday party this weekend and my family is supposed to be leaving tomorrow afternoon to drive up here- so throw a little extra in your prayers tonight that they can leave, and i'll pray that you go back to work!!

Aaaa thank goodness for the office! I was going nuts. At one point I heard on the radio that there were 45 snow trucks for all of metro Atlanta. I probably would've been more effective with my hair dryer.
