Yep, In Like A Lion

The ice and snow amounts were less than the weatherazzi predicted, but we still got 2-3 inches of snow, with maybe a quarter inch of ice underneath.  It was slow going this morning as we travelled to work, and we counted only two cars off in the ditches along the way.  That's a record;  I've seen twice that many cars in the ditches when we've only had a dusting. 

The weatherazzi are calling for temperatures in the single digits tonight, with a warm-up the rest of the week.  So hopefully by the weekend this mess will be melted and just a memory. I know the 'Rents are both sick of this cold and ice and sinus infections.  Other than one trip to the grocery a couple of weeks ago in between rounds of colds and sinus infections, they haven't been out of the house since Super Bowl Sunday.  In their defense, they've missed church because they were sick; but other than that, they've stayed inside because it had been so snowy and icy.  We're tentatively planning Family Night Out later on this week to go to our favorite Mexican joint.  This is a big event for us all.  Really and truly, other than going to work and church and trips to the store or to pick up carry-out, I haven't been that many places in the past yucky wintery month, either.
