Winter

It has been a few interesting days weather wise. I was so excited last week thinking we were going to finish our Christmas shopping last Saturday. Well, Friday night it started raining before I left work. Thru the night the weather got worse - the rain turned to snow. We got at least 10 inches of snow and 40 - 50 mile an hour winds. I was scheduled to work on Saturday morning and it didn't look too bad so I took off for the bank. I got stuck on main street. . . . . on main street! I got myself out and continued on to the bank. The tellers got there too, but it wasn't pretty. By 10:00 we closed and went home. I followed one of the other girls home - she had a 4 wheel drive Suburban. If I hadn't been following in her tracks, I wouldn't have made it. Needless to say we did not make to Sioux Falls shopping (I didn't even leave the house). I was very depressed. The past 2 days the weather has improved, but we are supposed to get more snow tonight. Yipes! I really need to get out of town shopping. I only have 5 things left to get, but I can't get them here in town.
