Our Snowmageddon

We had our own "Snowmageddon" in Texas.  We had 11 inches fall in Krugerville.  That was the most in history.  Surprisingly, the roads were not that bad.  There wasn't any ice.  I don't think I have seen this much snow since I lived in Ellensburg.

Texas Snow Day 2008

Boy, did it snow last night! It stuck too! But only to the grass and cars. I thought people were going to panic and start canceling things. The only thing that got canceled was my softball game. The ground was too saturated. I woke up at 4 AM this morning for work. When I got out of the shower I noticed David at the computer with his coveralls on. I thought he was sleepwalking. Turns out he woke up early to scrape my windshield. What a sweetie!

Easter Weekend

This post seems a little late, but oh well. I kicked off Easter weekend by working at the City of Plano Eggs Over Easy Egg Hunt. It is always fun to see little kidos run around like maniacs picking up eggs. It was so cold though. By the end of the hunt, it started to snow. That night, David and I got free tickets to the Texas Rangers game with some friends. It was coldest game in Rangers history at 37 degrees. Our seats were in center field, but we moved after the 2nd inning. Our friends had really good seats and we were going to sit by them, but the only seats open were in the very front row! We sat right behind 1st base. Sammy Sosa hit a home run. They won 8 - 3, I think.

David went to church with me on Sunday. I wanted him to have a full Catholic experience in the big church. (Rather than the old gym where I usually go.) We got there 1/2 hour early and there wasn't even standing room. So, we went over to the non impressive gym for the 10:10 service. We got Father Postel, so the mass was like lightning. After church, we watched a movie and baked some cookies. Then we went to his mom's house for lunch. We fell asleep while watching season 3 of In Living Color. That show is so funny! Then David went back to work and I went home to have an Easter pizza for dinner. It was a great Easter!

Snow Day 2006

Every year, we have 1 snow day. Last year, on that faithful day, I got a squirrel stuck in my chimney while there was a fire going. But that is a different story... This year, they aren't officially calling it a snow day. They are calling the "snow" ice pellets or sleet. Where I am it looks like snow flurries to me. Of course it only lasted about a half hour, but it's fun to watch. I have a cold right now and I just hanging out until I have to go to work. The TV is saying it is 29 degrees here. They anticipate it getting colder later on today. Snow is a big deal around here, but is it so important that they need to cancel All My Childern? That sucks. Maybe I will be lucky and get to close the Rec Center an hour early!
