Snow snow snow

More snow. Isn't it spring yet? Roads weren't too bad (yet) when I went to work yesterday at noon. By the time I left at 5:30 they weren't very good. Still, church (Awana) was not cancelled so off I went to Lowell. Slow and steady, got there ok. Only two kids in our group made it but they both did very well on their sections tonight. One has just three sections left to finish her book!

I left Awana after book time as we had a troop committee meeting. Usually they are on the first Thursday but this month that was New Years Day. 2nd Thursday doesn't work because that's roundtable (tonight.) So I was late but didn't miss a whole lot as the treasurer's report was still being discussed. It was after 9 by the time we were done, and the snow was a little heavier by then.

I needed to make a quick stop at Meijer for dry ice for a ceremony for roundtable tonight. By the time I left Meijer, the roads were still bad and the visibility was worse as well. Y'know, that snow coming right at you, makes you think you're piloting a spaceship like on Star Wars. I still made it home safely and so did Eric (thanks to his friend Jim.) He is still carless, the insurance has decided to total the car altogether because of water getting into the car itself. They were to talk to Steve about it yesterday, calling him on his cell phone since he's back in Detroit.

Anyway, finished the evening by getting all the roundtable preparations finished, then burned the CDs this morning. (I make a resource CD for the participants instead of printing out lots of paper copies.)

The snow seems to have stopped, hopefully until at least tomorrow. Judging from the back deck, looks like we got about five inches of new stuff. Now to just hope that the roads are clear tonight for my trip to Greenville and back home.
