Everyone is talking about the
winter storm that is making it’s way to the Dallas metroplex. My morning shows have been interrupted with constant weather updates....ughhh!
Oh, and I made the
mistake and went to the store. Target was overrun with people stocking up on ice scrapers, food, movies and beer…lots of
BEER. People are rushing and running thru the isles to make sure they have
enough spaghettios, potato chips, Tyson nuggets, or whatever else they need to
get them through the cold weekend. Hot chocolate shelves are empty and the lines were super long. It was a madhouse, reminded me of my Florida days preparing for the next big hurricane!!! But this is not a hurricane, it's ice. All I wanted
was to get some salad dressing for my antipasto salad and look for a new book to read, on my only day off. Boy, did I pick the
wrong day.
School will most likely be
cancelled so, the only people who should be freaking out and running around in
circles are the parents facing this inevitable snow day, home with the kids!!!
Fortunately and
unfortunately for me, I will be working tomorrow. I will have the opportunity
to drive 10 mph all the way to work behind some really bad drivers. Talk about
chaos, the roads are going to be a mess!
People, this is north Texas, we get ice every year!And even if we give it a catchy name like
“Snowpocalypse” or “Arctic Blast”, it’s still just ice and snow. RELAX and be
safe. :)
