• Surprise day off

  I woke up at 6 today so I could get a start on a pot roast for dinner tonight before leaving early for work since I knew with the snow that travel would not be fun. Well, I stepped out of the shower around 6:15 to hear my cell's voice mail chime. I knew it would be Dr. D. She called to say that the power was out at her house a mile or so from the office, and that she didn't think I should come in. If anyone actually went to the office today, she would see them. Thank goodness she called! People were stuck on the I-90 for literally hours (one man was stuck > 12 hours). There is a travel ban basically everywhere north of where I live. Since it took me an hour and a half to get home yesterday when there was only about 1 1/2 inches of heavy snow, I knew it would be crazy. Who knew what a crazy heavy lake effect storm would bring in October. I still can't get used to thundersnow though.

  Anyway, so I finally got my much needed day off today. I have been relaxing, watching some tv. Of course I have to smell that lovely roast for the next 4-5 hours until my mom gets here. I got my hair cut, but really am not happy with it. I think I'll go back to my normal girl on Monday. Tonight my mom gets here, tomorrow we go to Rochester for Katie's bridal shower. And after that, I'm driving to Syracuse to see some of my EC buds! Now if only it would get over 40 degrees here, things couldn't get any better!
