Let it Rain! Let it Rain! Let it Rain!

Batten down the hatches! Run for the cellar! Stay indoors! We are in the middle of the WORST STORM EVER!!!! A bit meladramatic you say? Maybe a little, but if you are watching the news they are making a really big deal of this. But then...when doesn't the news do that?

Yes it is snowing, yes the roads are bad, yes I know the schools are closed but must we hear about it ALL DAY LONG? And it isn't like there is anything NEW to report. I am sure I have seen the same little girl build that snowman about 5 times now.

I am torn though. On one hand I enjoy the snow - it really is beautiful. But I have been stuck in my house for 4 straight days now! I had a small window of freedom on Tuesday when Shelby went to school and Chad & I went into the office. But then school closed early and back home we went.

I guess I should be thankful (???) that I can work remotely. Though this was a curse today as our facility actually closed. What could my excuse be? My manager is in Puerto Rico and most of my team is there as well or in Minnesota. I had NO excuse! Not even the excuse that my power was out because....we had the generator going. Damn us for being proactive!!

I am thankful though that my family and I are all safe and warm at home. And I hope we have an early spring! This body needs to defrost!
