It’s snowing here… again… it seems like winter has already been one hundred years long and its only mid-January. Ugh. I hate winter.
Our first snow of the season back in November
With winter, comes my inability to drive in snowy/icy conditions. I just can’t do it. I just freeze in terror with the thought of losing control and sliding down one of the hills by our house. So, I go a maximum of 20mph with the hazards on and repeat “I don’t care. I just don’t care. I don’t care.” at the lines of cars and trucks behind me honking their horns.
Current weather conditions in our backyard
So, today I’ve risked my life driving home from work. Took a huge sigh of relief as I pulled into my garage. Only to come inside the house and discover… we’re out of toilet paper. Seriously?!?!
I'd guestimate that's a solid 4-5 inches on our railing right now (excuse the quality they are taken with my bberry)
I’m now sitting in my living debating the importance of toilet paper in my life. I have found one roll from our guest bathroom with approximately 25 squares of paper left. I think I will ration that and see how far that gets me…
I should mention that my DSD (designated snow driver), John Michael, is stuck in Arizona where he went to watch Auburn win the national title. But, due to the weather, is unable to leave Arizona and get me some toilet paper.
Ugh… have I mentioned how much I hate winter?
Aww I’m right there with you! I was born and raised in St. Augustine, FL and I now live 15 minutes outside of NYC and I HATE driving in the snow. Terrifies me! At least you’ll be back in GA soon! And I’m so happy Auburn won! My Dad played football for them when he was in college to it really was a dream come true to see that!
I have lived in Kansas all my life and hate every single minute of winter. I thought for sure I’d end up somewhere warm and never have to drive on ice again. But then I fell in love with a farm boy and here I am slippin and slidin to work in the mornings!
Glad to see your return to blogging! Keep it up!
