PRETTY.

Well, the weathermen were right again today. It froze overnight and it snowed. And apparently it's intermittently snowing through the area. Regardless, it's gorgeous. Apparently the roads aren't quite as bad as I feared, though - Scott said it's a little slick out, but driveable. He's at work now. And I can stay in, except this afternoon there's the shower, but by then a) it should be better (the high is supposed to be above freezing) and b) I can make him pick me up if it hasn't.

It is so pretty out there.

LOL!!!!!

I'm pretty sure the commercial was prepped before this weather, but either it's really unfortunate, or someone has a great sense of humor and quick turnaround time, one of the two. A local store that sells mattresses is having a big sale that runs through Tuesday, so "slide on in over the weekend" and take advantage of the savings.

Yeah, no thanks, I'm not much for the sliding part (and don't need a new mattress). But I am giggling insanely.

Hey, I got out of the house!

Will wonders never cease. By this afternoon it had warmed up and melted off so the pavement was wet, not icy. Scott's coworkers were having a shower for us, so that was nice - I could actually drive down without fretting myself silly. It was very nice - good company and conversation (and a very rich cake...oof...pretty and yummy, though!). Very sweet of them.

On the way back I stopped at the gas station and filled up (actually I didn't, it shut off before it was done and was full enough I didn't bother, but 3/4 of a tank is fine by me; I just don't want to have to think about gas on Monday when driving to my OB appointment) and then went to the library to pick up my held books. Yay, books.

It was snowing lightly - not sticking, just drifting flakes - once I left the shower and as I ran the errands. Very, very pretty.

Got home to a package from mika_vumner. Thank you so much!!

We'll see if the forecast for this weekend is accurate or not. Another winter storm warning. This time with snow Saturday, temps above freezing, melting slushy snow, sleet and freezing rain, a good freeze Friday night, and a very icy Sunday. Hopefully all melting off Monday morning. We'll see! I don't have anywhere to be this weekend except right here, so that's all good.
