Well, I had work today but when I left at 1:30 for lunch, it was so snowy, sleet-y and slippery I just went home.  I barely made it out of the steep parking lot and almost drove off the side of the road more than once. It took me over an hour to go just a few miles and I saw quite a few accidents. I am glad to be home though, I think it would have been awful to navigate all of those narrow streets during rush hour. The streets weren’t plowed or salted at all. I think we are getting more snow than they had anticipated, it started around 11AM and they had said it would turn to rain soon, but it pretty much stayed snow with some sleet mixed in. My tires are pretty much bald so that makes snow driving tricky.

Unfortunately, the snow means that my mom had to reschedule poor Patches’ appointment for this Monday, so maybe I will stop by to see her this weekend before they take her in. Apparently she has been happily eating her favorite food (grape tomatoes) which makes me extra sad. Poor girl.

 I’ve heard that my workplace doesn’t close down at all for snow (and I am sure they didn’t close early today) but if it is bad tomorrow morning, I might just have to call out. Our street is narrow and one way and hard to get off of and all of the streets I take to work are pretty much the same. They don’t pay enough for me to risk my life getting there.
