Daily Confession 2/23/2010 - The Day I Ran Over Chippy

Yesterday was a beautiful day.  I should have taken advantage of such a day and went shopping.  Today we have been hit with a storm.  I decided to try to get out early and get to the store before things turned bad.

It went bad the moment I got into my car.  It was snowing hard but my car was making its way down the drive way.

Next thing I know,  Two chippies run out in front of my car.  One of them ran off and the other just stood there.  I braked to slow down but my car would not stop.  My car did a half spin out.

I thought for sure I ran over Chippy.  I broken down in tears  and got out of the car.  Chippy popped out from under the snow!  He was ok.

When I got back to my car,  I could not move it. It would not go forward or backwards.  I take out a shovel and get the snow from under the tires out but still it will not move.

So now my car is stuck in the driveway.  I have no food in my house and have to wait till 10 PM for some help unless my brother comes home early.

We could get up to a foot of snow and freezing rain.

YAY!

Today

Right Now

Snow May Be Pretty But I Hate Shoveling It

We have enjoyed warmer than usual weather the past few days.  The rain on Monday washed the last bits of snow away.

This morning it was snowing. No big deal, The weather man said it was going to be less than an inch....

My brother calls me and tells me that I do not want to go today.  It took him forever to get down the hill.  People were sliding all over the road.  It took him over 2 1/2 hours to get his job in New York.

Early in the afternoon the snow stopped, the temp went up to 35 and the snow was melting.  On my way upstairs I noticed it was a complete white out.  There is more than an inch of snow on the ground.  The steps are disappearing and the trash cans need to go out.

So I grab my shovel, and make a trail to the street.  There is no way I am going to get my little car out of the driveway.

It was snowing so hard, the wind is blowing and its getting dark.  I made a quick retreat into the house.

Ok snow, you beat me.

Its so nice to see the sunshine and the snow melt away.

Snow Job!

I keep belly aching about wanting a new camera but I am getting a snow blower this year!  I have no clue how to use one but it will be fun to learn!

First Snow Fall

It actually snowed in October but it was just a dusting. Tonight is a couple of inches. Hope the trees are covered in the morning because it will make for amazing capture.

Its already snowing in Kittenland!

Snow This Weekend?

They are calling for 2-4 inches of snow this weekend.  Now I have a four inch rule, if its more than 4, I do not leave the door.  I do not think my little car can handle it. 

The first snow is pretty. If it indeed happens, I will take pictures!

Hot coco and a roaring fire for me!
