OK, so I'm a wimp. We had anywhere from 4 - 10 inches of snow in our area yesterday. I was prepared to stay at work, but wasn't needed there last night, so decided to come home. Unfortunately, I waited until almost 5:00 to leave, right at the height of the storm. Luckily, I was in the truck with 4 wheel drive. I never would have tried it in my Miata. The roads had been plowed and treated with chemicals at some point, but were in terrible shape. I drove at around 25 mph into town - a trip that usually takes 20 minutes, took closer to an hour. The road had one vague track to it. With one of the main thoroughfares that bad, I decided not to even try the smaller country road coming out to our house. Deciding that discretion is the better part of valor, I checked into a hotel in town, then called DH to tell him that I was staying in town.
I did have my quilt that just needs the binding stitched on the back with me, and managed to finish one side last night. So that was a good outcome. The roads were drivable this morning, and it warmed up enough to have mostly bare pavement by tonight. We're supposed to have snow again next week - I'm ready for spring!
