Two snow plows have gone into the ditch in the last day or so. As the mayor of Portland pointed out, they are four-wheel-drive, chained, and 40 tons. If they can't stay out of the ditch, I sure as heck wouldn't want to be driving near where they went in to it.
In addition, a semi truck with two tankers overturned on I-205. The tankers? Full of ... de-icer.
It's not funny, but it is.
Apparently the main roads and freeways/highways are much better now, and the clinic even had clear access to their parking lot, but I still cancelled my appointment. Because I do not live on main roads, and we had ice, with slush-ice ridges over it, on our street. MIGHT have gotten out safely. Did not care to try, even granted the nice level roads. My doctor didn't think I needed to reschedule for this week since I am doing okay, though she'll probably give me a call later; I'll just go to my regular appointment next week instead.
According to the weather thingy on my iPhone, it's 24 degrees out there. According to me, it's "I'm-not-going-out-that-door" out there. Very pretty from inside, however!
