I can just see the look on my boss' face when I tell him I need to take vacation to deliver some home made candy. Maybe that wouldn't be such a bad idea. People around here do NOT know how to drive in the snow. Growing old is mandatory; growing up is NOT.

*giggle* you have to remember that she IS in the DEEP south. They tend to freek out when they get the tiniest bit of snow.

TrueWhen I was living in Washington, DC for a time two years ago I was at work one day and it started to flurry. My boss showed up at the job site freaking out. He goes "I had to put my truck in four wheel drive to get here. I think we should call it a day and head home before it gets to bad." My co-worker, he grew up in Boston, and I look out the window and the sidewalks barely had snow on them never mind the streets. Boy did we ever get a huge laugh out of that. It was too funny and he was so freaked!!!!!! Needless to say we told him to go home and we finished the day by ourselves
We still laugh about that to this day My ADD makes it so that.....Ooooo SHINY.....wanna go ride bikes....wait....where am I.....

That sounds like my first snow fall when I was in Texas. The business closed and everyone went home and there was only that slight dusting. I guess it's all depends on what you're use to and what you're driving ... oh and the forecast to come. Did I mention that four hours later we had it turn into a blizzard?

I don't freak out!!! It's all the transplants to the state that freak out!!! I can drive on it with no problem, but stay off the roads just cause I know that most people just panic!!!
Personally...I love the snow...wish we had more of it...
Ooops...better be careful what I wish for...especially in 'Loki the Trickster's' thread...
Myth would have him send ME a blizzard!!!

Loki...at least DC is a good deal more south than Newark, DE. My friends got so hyped up over a couple of flakes of snow last winter. I was just sitting there staring at them saying "You call this snow?"

My yard looked sooooo pretty...!!!
Wish I could figure out how to get rid of my old gallery pics and I'd put a new one of the snow in it...have one where the flash on the camera made the flakes falling look like fireflies!!!
