I've fallen enough, and these old bones will only take so much. Once I broke my ankle, and one (in snow and ice) I sprained it.<BR/><BR/>Courtney, I'll trade houses with you!<BR/><BR/>I'm glad to have another snow day. I think that our super must have been out of town; someone else emailed us at 5:45 this morning, and I don't think she dared take any chances. We'll pay next time it snows, I bet!ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08670685934653870752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12730936.post-73687869181121289482009-02-03T10:22:00.000-05:002009-02-03T10:22:00.000-05:00Snow is lovely.

But when you have to go to work and drive in it, it is generally not fun at all. <BR/><BR/>On Sunday I had a bad fall. It was warmer for a day (it's snowing again here) so a lot of the snow was melted leaving puddles. As I was walking down my driveway in an area we had shoveled but which is somewhat lower than the surroundings, I stepped in a puddle and slid and fell. There was a thin layer of black ice at the bottom of the puddle. Black ice looks like a wet patch but is really ice. It causes lots of accidents on the road. Not fun at all. <BR/><BR/>I personally do not mind the cold at all - I just bundle up, but I do hate the dreariness and icy conditions left behind by the beautiful snow.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with your buy-out package. I thought you lived in WVA. I guess you work in VA?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12730936.post-73456519609078661262009-02-03T10:02:00.000-05:002009-02-03T10:02:00.000-05:00Betty said....I'm sorry you had to drive in that m...Betty said....<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry you had to drive in that mess yesterday. You got a lot more snow than we did and our roads weren't even covered this morning, so I was surprised to see that the city schools were closed, but I was very glad for you. Three snow days in a week's time...I think that's a record!<BR/><BR/>A buy-out package could be a very good thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12730936.post-52515404368672881902009-02-02T21:31:00.000-05:002009-02-02T21:31:00.000-05:00I LOVE winter weather!
