Double Whamy Today

Today is not only Friday but it is also turning into a Snow Day for those of us in the MidSouth. Yep. Big Blizzard heading our way--1 to 3 inches. Thats right, folks. 3 inches.

Now those Midwestern friends of mine are probably shaking their heads and grumbling about the work ethic here in the South again.
Ok. I've heard it before. We do believe in our days off: Deer Season--manufacturing plants practically shut down; Christmas season (which starts the day after Thanksgiving) short work days--got shopping to do and Spring--well, we deserve a Spring Break too.
Oh and turkey season begins March 15th.
But today: Snow Day

We are all headed out early to go grocery shopping, pick up a movie, some wine, extra milk (FYI: Snow days require extra milk)
and headed home to stare out the window on occasion to see if the Weather Guy was right for a change.
For those of you living in areas of the country that have an array of snow plows and salt trucks, we wish you a safe day at work and the drive home tonight, white knuckled, prepared to shovel your driveway the moment you arrive at your door.

We will be toasting you as we put in another movie and stuff our face with popcorn.
