Snow Days....or shall I say Ice Days???


So, this week, the only day we attended school  was Monday. The funny thing about this is that many teachers thought nothing of this storm that caused all the fuss. Little did any one now what would really occur when this storm hit this part of the country. Many had no power for days, while others still don't have power and were told that this could go on for a week or more.... I feel awful for this people that have to go without the power! Hopefully they are taking advantage of the shelters around town, and taking care of their families in times of need. This storm made a huge mess out of our yard, with huge tree limbs all over the place! Also, we didn't have power for a day, but that no where compares to the people that are still without power almost 5 days later. This storm was very devastating, as well as many were not as well prepared for this. Maybe it's the fact that people just got tired of the meteorologists telling us we would have awful snows, and end up having none. Also this goes to show, did anyone here about snow for Saturday? Because I sure didn't, but on my way to work at 3:30 in the morning, it was snowing, and snowing pretty good!!! I sure wish I could have a job where I could be wrong 99% of the time, and still have the job!
