Snowvember

This is my deck this morning. A week before Thanksgiving and I’m still at home because work has a delayed opening due to snow. I know a lot of people are complaining that it’s too early for snow, but if we are going to keep getting precipitation I would rather have this than more rain. At least the snow gives us closings and delays and a chance to pause and relax for a bit. With rain we keep going as normal, just in terrible conditions. Unfortunately, the rain/snow line is getting perilously close to my house and soon the nice, white, calm snowy day will turn back in to what we’ve had all year – heavy, flooding rain. I will trade my nice, calm snow delay morning for a terrible, wet, slow evening commute home.

So, I am not complaining about the snow. I’m enjoying the nice respite from work and wet before everything goes back to normal.

  1. No! I refuse to say that I would rather it be this snow than rain! See, while my children are out of school for snow, I’m forced to drive through it into work. We tend to have to be better than a mail man here! Rain, snow, or ice. We have to open (and show up). This morning was a horrible trip to work… :(. Although we didn’t get the amount they said we would (thankfully). I’ll take the rain ANYDAY! 🙂

    1. My kids are away at college so school snow days mean nothing to me now. My work has been better the last few years with closing for inclement weather. It makes snow days easier for me. My commute doubles in time when it rains.

  2. I like to look at it. I don’t like to go out into it around here because it seems that the only people on the road are those who shouldn’t be because they have no idea how to drive in weather. So I’m glad my boss told me yesterday not to go in to work today.
