Newest Weather Warning

I just came back inside from digging the car out AGAIN. The snow plow came through last night and pushed a wall of snow behind everybody's nicely dug out cars. This wasn't just snow, this was snow boulders - big huge rocks made out of snow. This weather is just ridiculous. The weather channel finally confirmed what everyone is saying...more snow tomorrow and Wednesday. At this point, the kids might make it back to school by Thursday or Friday. At least the little snow symbol has been replaced with a cloudy symbol on Saturday's weather forecast.

As soon as the sun gets up a little more and starts to melt the snow and ice packed around the tires, we are going to TRY to get out. If we can get out of our parking place, we'll be fine now that our neighborhood roads have been cleared. I'm having major cabin fever. My goal isn't far...just up the road to Walmart or Target and maybe Chick-fil-a.
