I'm really tired of snow....

After the weather here at Christmas (we had about 24" of snow in 2 weeks-usually we might get 2" in one day each winter) and the fact that I ended the show event by sliding down the small hill leaving my house, hit a parked car and then jumped the curb, ruining the suspension/alignment on my not even a year old minivan.

The next morning, I dropped the boys off at school, hit Target for lightbulbs and then was heading to the body shop. As I was leaving Target, a lady hit the back of my van cause she didn't look before pulling out. She hit the back end of my car. She had a Ford Expedition...didn't hurt her car, cremated my back corner.

My car was in the shop for 2 weeks. I just got it back on Wednesday afternoon. It is beautiful. They detailed it, it looks great, inside and out.

When my alarm went off to get ready for church this morning, I looked out and saw snow. It was stuck to all the grass, roofs, cars, etc. It wasn't stuck to the road. But the temperature was below freezing and the roads were all wet and the snow was still falling.

I am a wuss. I didn't want to wreck my pretty fixed up van AGAIN. So, I went back to sleep. Let the sick (colds) boys sleep in today. With DH out of town (Naval Reserve weekend), I wimped out. If he had been here, he would have driven and we would have gone, I'm sure. We did get dressed and head out to 'Crispy Chips' (what the kids call our favorite Mexican place) for lunch. DH doesn't like Mexican, so we only eat it when he isn't here. At lunch time, it was STILL snowing (has been since 11:00pm last night). The roads are fine now. I'll go to church tonight.
