Well, good to look at and play in, not so good for driving in and getting to work, obviously!! I rang N who informed me that all local schools were closed (what??? Because of 6 inches of snow? I went to school in Liverpool when we had to walk and dig ourselves out of 10 foot drifts.... Merlin knows what I mean...)
So we had to cancel our volunteers' training day, I gave N the day off as her son was at home and I know she wanted to go out sledging and making snowmen...MA was snowed in at her parent's home..so I alone struggled out and -watched by the disbelieving neighbours - cleared six inches of snow off my car, and made it slowly along the road, sliding a bit, until I main road and all was ok...
The small roads near my office were snowy and slippy and cars were all over the place, so I parked and walked in..carefully....
I did some work, went to the bank and realised the town was a ghost town, so I took a management decision that as it was still snowing, I was in danger of being snowed in, so I e-mailed some stuff home, and drove carefully home...
At home, heating up high, doggy curled at my feet, i-tunes playing, I sat at the dining room table and worked, watching the snowflakes cover the garden and make it look even more beautiful...
I had bought supplies on the way home...soup, rolls...a donut....a home-made chocolate chip cookie....a bar of chocolate covered marzipan..well, two; one for the journey home, and one for when I got home..I think we can safely say this diet is not going very well..I weigh more now than when I started..I blame the snow...
