Winter Storm

On January 26th, we started getting word that we would be having a winter storm coming. It started to sleet, so we closed the office early. I got to leave work at 3:30, went out to the car, and there was about 2 inches of thick ice on the cars. It took me 30 minutes to get the car defrosted and at the point where I could safely drive home. So I get home and am trying to get up the driveway. After 4 attempts, I call Jeremy and let him know that I can't get up into the garage, he said to just leave the car in the driveway and he would take care of it when he got home. So I put the car in park, turned it off and put the brake on. Well the car started sliding down the driveway. Well, I didn't think that was a good idea, so I turned the car back on, backed up out of the driveway and I actually made it up the driveway!!! I was supposed to go into work at 10 on tuesday. I got up about 7:45 for my conference call @ 8. I looked outside and the ground was everything was covered with snow! I couldn't believe it - it barely snows here. I decided since Jeremy was off work, that he might be able to take me to work. I woke him up abou 8:15 (on his day off) and asked him to take me to work. So he gets up, I get ready and we get in the car and start toward work. It takes us about 10 mins to get 2 miles, and we got a little stuck twice. I called my boss to let her know that I wouldn't be in. Jeremy turned around and we went back home and got to spend the day together trapped at the house!!!
This pic was taken on Tuesday before I left to attempt to go to work.

Today was a much better day, lots of snow piles everywhere. The snow reminds me of living in Colorado (although its nothing like what Colorado gets). I can't wait until the weather gets a little warmer, I'm ready for winter to be over!
