Since Monday morning, all I've heard around the office is talk of the snow that's coming on Thursday. Gotta get the guys prepared, get the plows ready, have everything in place for the first snow on Thursday.
This morning, when I got up, I went out into the kitchen, all bleary-eyed and half-asleep to get a drink of water, and Mom said, "Look out the window!"
Snow. Lots of it. Everything completely white. Like a perfect little winter wonderland!
But here's the problem: It's only Wednesday morning!
The weatherman was calling for freezing rain, drizzle, rain for today. Not snow. The snow wasn't to come until tomorrow.
Just goes to show how smart those guys are!
So yes, things are a wee bit crazy around here this morning. But for the most part, everyone was already prepared for this, even though they were targeting Thursday. And here at Mountainview, we don't do much plowing anymore anyways, just driveways and a few of the local establishments' parking lots. The snow is wet enough that laneways and roads are pretty much already melting anyways.
But they're still calling for a dumping tomorrow, and colder temperatures as well, so it could get worse before it gets better.
I'm not going to let that stop my Snow Euphoria, though! I love the white stuff!
I just wish this was Christmas Eve...Now my Christmassy mood can officially begin! Yipee!!
If you're out in it today, enjoy it - but drive carefully!! :)
