Snow day the second

Jan 19, 2012 22:05



It was supposed to warm up today day, but it never did. Instead we got a steady downpour of various kinds of frozen ick, adding something over an inch-and-a-half to what fell yesterday. So, other than venturing out once to check and see if it was safe to take Brenda to work (it wasn't) and once to the garbage cans, it was a day for hot chocolate, naps, and watching TV. (Though we did get a little housework done.)

I kept meaning to edit the last picture from my trip to Jacksonville, but never got a 'round tuit. I want to finish that picture before starting on the snow pics from yesterday so I don't end up with a disconnected backlog like I did last year. Do 'em in order, do 'em in a timely fashion, trash 'em if they're crap is my new mantra and the closest thing to a New Years resolution I made.

UPS and FedEx have me vexed though. UPS managed to deliver a package we didn't need in any hurry (stuff shipped from Jacksonville). FedEx didn't even try to deliver the package we really need (hay and pellets for the piggies). I should have ordered the food before I left, but was distracted. Brenda should have ordered it early last week, but there was a breakdown in communication... So now, unless it's delivered by noonish, I'm going to have to find a way to get to a pet store to get some. (Which of course means that it'll be waiting on the porch when I get back.)

Tomorrow is also crisis day for Brenda - she has to do payroll. The bosses are understanding about weather, but she really can't leave everyone in a lurch. Happily, a friend is driving his wife to work (which is near our place) and has agreed to take Brenda to work (which is more-or-less on his way home). She should be able to cadge a ride home from one of the bosses.
