Winter Storm Part 2

So, I ended the Winter Storm post with the sentiment of "it could be worse", well, it got worse.  Not so much from a standpoint of more ice.  It did start melting more, and we were able to open the office at noon on Tuesday.

Fast forward to Friday and the town Chris works in still hasn't thawed.  While at work, outside, he slipped on the ice.  He landed on his knee.  I knew it was bad when I told him he should go to the ER and he didn't complain.  I met him there.  He left with a knee brace and crutches and a clinical diagnosis of a torn meniscus.  A few days later when we can finally get to see an orthopedic surgeon - we find out he actually has a torn ACL.  So, yeah, it got worse.

Winter Storm

It's the Deep South - and who can't get excited about the winter storm that is heading your way?  The news prepped us for 3-4" of snow in our area, and 6-8" north of us.  Finally around 10 pm last night, it started rolling in.  Guess what, we were in that tiny part of the huge system that just got ice! The crap end of the storm.  About a 1/4" in our yard this morning, and it's raining.  It's warmed up to a blistering 34 degrees, so it's melting when it hits.  We went out and got a few pictures, but I just couldn't get excited about it, esp when my SIL said they got 6-7" of snow and the kids were out making snowmen, snow angels and throwing snowballs.  I'm glad the niece and nephew are having fun though!

I got a snow day from work, but honestly, I needed to be at my desk.

It could be worse though, the power could be out, but so far, so good.  We've had a few flickers, but it's still on.

Happy Birthday to Pops & AG!
