Snow Day

Posted December 17th, 2008 by joy

What happened to the snow!? I rushed home from my impromptu dentist appointment (don’t ask) to beat the storm and, low-and-behold, what hit my windshield? Rain. dust-like sprinkles at first and then, as sure as day, rain drops. Big, gross, dreary, normal rain drops.

Jeremy and I are taking a snow day. It’s work from home to stave away the certain death that comes when we try to navigate Edmund (trusty but skittish Corolla) up Education Hill in even one inch of pure white, flaky heaven. We had certain plans to romp and play (during regularly spaced, state-mandated work breaks of course)–even build a snowman! But here we are, typing away on our prospective laptops (teeth intact), and I swear the very last modicum of snow from two days ago is about to slip into oblivion with the rising heat.

The only good I see in the midst of it all is that our gingerbread house did indeed receive the healthy blizzard it was expecting.
