Snowed In

The Holiday blizzard of 2006. This is what they are calling our storm.

Just to give a quick update on the weather in Colorado, they actually predicted the weather correctly today, snow, snow and a ton more snow. I went to work this morning and it wasn't too bad, just some blowing and the snow hadn't really started yet, but by 10am they were talking about closing roads that I needed to get home, I don't want to live at my job (although some days it would be a nice alternative) so I left at 10:30 and at 1pm they closed our office and we are closed tomorrow now as well (I wouldn't have gotten out of our subdivision anyways). On the way home the snow drifts were already making there way across the interstate, but I made it home and Dan was already busy with his 4-wheeler and attached snowplow and we went and picked up Katelynn at daycare. No plows had come through our subdivision yet and people were already stuck in on the roads, it was crazy. Dan kept on plowing throughout the day and still tonight and you can't tell he did a thing, his van has snow packed around it up the side of the doors, that van isn't moving for a few days for sure. We already have probably a couple feet of snow from today and it is supposed to keep up until noon tomorrow.

After doing some laundry and hanging out Dan & I both realized that the milk man probably isn't coming to our door tomorrow - shit! Dan tried to go out tonight to the gas station and pick up some milk and of course they were closing when he got there - shit! Then he got stuck on his way home after helping pull someone else out - shit! Another realization is that we are getting low on diapers and the daycare lady told me today that she needs diapers too - shit, shit! While I'm at it I'm sure our garbage will be on overload as well if the garbage pick-up doesn't happen tomorrow too!

So pray for us out here in the Holiday blizzard of 2006 (can you imagine if Minnesota and North Dakota named all of their blizzards?)!!
