Snow Day
Ah, today is the kind of snow day that applies to (most) adults as well as lucky children, because there is just SO MUCH SNOW! My mailbox is covered. I couldn't open my garage door for all the snow piled against it. The church steps are buried. The amount of snow dropped on Central New York this past week has been phenomenal. Even still, I am about 45 minutes away from places like Oswego County, where a state of emergency has been declared because of the 100+ inches of snow. I am enjoying my snow day - I did make it over to the church - I live next door - but the feeling is definitely of a relaxed, easy-paced day. But do keep in your thoughts today those who are working or stuck working double shifts, those who are without heat and power, and those who are without food and shelter in this crazy weather....

Hey Beth,
I took today off so I could surprise Jen with Valentine's breakfast in bed... then the Agency shut down by noon, I'm very glad I didn't go in. I've spent roughly 2 1/2 hours shoveling so far today. When i went to brush off my car, the snow was literally above my knees. The dogs are afraid to go outside... when Pinto leaves the deck, he disappears.
And we missed the worst of it this week. It's amazing.

SUNY Oswego, is obviously, a college, with 80 percent of its residents on site so to speak, and yet it was closed this entire past week. Some of the pictures Lauren has shown me are incredible, with cars, parking lots full of them, completely gone under almost 10 feet of snow. Makes me glad I'm only dealing with a few feet!
Beth...I'm somewhere in cyberspace and need you to find me...help. You probably think I've been lost to the conservative south- but I haven't been lost- I like to think I'm doing undercover research. I check in on your textweek stuff, your blog and your web page every so often- though today- I thought I reach out and say hello. Miss you much. Susan
Wow! So that's what snow looks like huh? We don't see much of that thar stuff around Mississippi. :)
Likewise, Beth! (reading your blog)
I'm sorry you missed the show, you'll just have to come to Florida next week and see them there! We had to cancel a few lecture/demonstrations last week. But I'm glad we got out of the area before we got stuck!
PS - randomly one of the only places we actually went out to eat was Panera in New Hartford
We got about twenty inches by Cleveland I shoveled and shoveled. I can't even imagine where they would put 100 inches.
Susan! You should email me - I don't think I have an email for you anymore...
