BLIZZARD

It's official. We have a blizzard. The winds are around 40-6-50 mph and it's still snowing.
Mom says she is unsure of the snow amount because of all the blowing. She guesses at least 5-6" so far. Very little traffic out there on Hwy 30, which is a pretty major road through Iowa. It's practically in our backyard.

She had to be at the hospital by 7 AM today for clinicals. The roads were ok, not great then. The school closed at 1 so she got to leave the hospital 2 hours early. She went to Wal-Mart and it was practically a ghost town. Then she got to the Little Monkey's school to get him. They were closing early too and he was napping.  We are glad they got home ok.

The MIG didn't get out of work early but everyone is home and all cozy. Our nip fell of the fridge earlier so we all got buzzed. It was a good day!

Mom is hoping for a snow day tomorrow so she can study. The Monkey's school/daycare is closed so if she has school/clinical then the MIG will be home with him.
Us-we'll just be hanging out, sleeping, eating and watching out the windows.

Be safe out there!
