At least that is what the weather station is calling it. It wasn't to bad this morning and I was able to make it home but now the roads are ice covered and we have had about 3 to 4 inches so far. It is suppose to slow down for awhile and then in the middle of the night start snowing for earnest. They are saying around 20 inches of snow, blowing wind, just icky weather which will go to Friday.
So if I make it to work tonight I am just bringing some clothes planning on staying probably til Friday morning or afternoon. We have lots of patients and nurses who live out of town. If the ones who make it there sleep in shifts we can cover.
Ohhhhh, I just heard a lovely sound. No..... not Santa's sledbells. The sound of a plow in the distance. Please clean this very very steep hill for me before I have to go to work. He sounds pretty far away though.
My youngest son lost control of his car and spun completely around but managed not to get hit and turned around and went home. His job is 45 miles away and they are going to be closing the highway so I am glad he will be home. My oldest drives for a dump truck and they were told they have to work no matter what tomorrow. What a crock.. Garbage is not worth the lives of the drivers. I have to be at work. I take care of humans. Whats garbage going to do? Die! It won't even rot in this weather.
I told my oldest son that we probably won't be able to come for Christmas dinner, but I am off after Friday morning so we will get together later in the week. I just want them all to be safe.
I decided to decorate with my old postcards of my MIL's. And work will feed us for Christmas, especially since so many of us will be trapped there. I am almost positive I won't make it home until Friday so once again. Have a Merry Christmas on the baby Jesus's birthday. May peace and joy fill your houses with love. For on this day a child was born.

We are getting hit pretty bad with the ice storm. I tried to go out on my back deck and it is covered with ice.
I want to wish you and your family a very merry Christmas.
Hope you have a Merry Christmas - many people are appreciatative of you working over Christmas in a bad storm!!
God Bless
Julie I think that is very good of you to take clothes to work in case you are needed you can just stay over. I hope the weather doesn't get as bad as they are saying. I hope you and Rick can have a good Christmas at home together with your children. Those cards are beautiful.
Helen
Have a warm a happy Christmas
I love those old cards! I do hope you can make it home for Christmas. I also have to work tomorrow but don't mind being there, at least I have a choice unlike the poor patients. Stay warm and I hope you get to meet up with your family soon. I agree, what's the point of picking up garbage and risking your life to do it? I hope your son stays safe. Merry Christmas wherever you spend it! Jeannette xxxx
Merry Christmas Jules and Rick !
