Dee my dh likes to listen to a Buffalo (?) station 104.1 I think. Earlier this afternoon they were saying that all schools were closed Wednesday and Thursday in the area. Dh texted me at 3 and asked if I was ready to go for a drive. I was, so I went. UGH! Whiteouts, snow covered roads, snow covered signs, blowing, howling, yucky, messy WINTER!! So glad I wasn't driving. He had to go almost an hour away to deliver a tire rim! One, just ONE tire rim. 2 hours of driving in that for a tire rim!
We got back home just north of the escarpment and what a difference when we drove down the hill. Clear roads, plowed streets, just a bit of wind. So..... dh asks if I still want Chinese at one of the large chains of buffet restaurants. So we went. It was fine until the drive home. That stuff that was on top of the escarpment was now all over the highway and blowing, and white outs and howling winds, and messy WINTER YUCK! ! !
Really happy to be home and in my head-to-toe, I-must-be-married, grey PJs. They are fuzzy and warm and the top has a hoodie. They go perfectly with my thick grey "reading" socks. Dh just grinned when I walked out of the bedroom. Yep, I'm married...
Edited to add: Jeopardy was pre-empted on channel 4 to give a weather update saying that as of 8 p.m. tonight that transport trucks and all buses were banned from the roads due to this storm. Talking about the lake effect band of snow... missed the entire end of the show. But we got riveting coverage of a street camera showing absolutely NO vehicles driving down the road! Thank you WIVB!!
