Today has been snow, and snow, and snow.

A day home. Today the roads were way worse than yesterday. I didn’t even try to go to work today. It was a sheet of ice out there. Did I stay home? Of course not, I conned Eric into going to the house and finished painting the office. When we first got there we started to walk over to Greg and Hollie’s to find out where the mailboxes are since we now had the key. The snow on the ground was covered with this thick crust of ice so I was trying to step hard so I could crush the ice layer and actually walk as opposed to slide all over the place. We got about half way and I took a HUGE nose dive. My hands broke through the ice layer and in a matter of seconds I was on all fours in the middle of the street. Eric tried to help me up but I was being a snot and didn’t want help. I was so mad I felt and hitting the ice with my hands and breaking through it hurt so bad. It was like putting my hands through glass and hitting a million needles. My hands stung so badly and I got a cut and started bleeding. After being angry for a while I walked back to our house because I didn’t want to fall anymore.

We got all the painting done, things cleaned up and I think we’re ready to go. Now we’ve just got the curtain rods and blinds to hand up and the grout to seal. I’m hoping the weather will lift soon and everything will melt away so we can take stuff over to the house, unload it and get everything moved but the big stuff. I don’t know if that’s going to happen. I’m really anxious just to move and have it over.

The fact that I haven’t been able to get to work, or when I do no one else is there makes getting those activities done. Eric and I have quite a few boxes packed and ready to take over to the house but, again… the weather isn’t helping the situation. I have a feeling that tomorrow isn’t going to get any better since we’re in another 36 hour winter storm warning. Keep your fingers crossed that everything will work out well and we’ll get moved without incident.
