Blizzard!

Not only is there a TON of snow falling, but school and work is cancelled.

Up above is the current weathercam shot of the downtown area.

We ventured out in our 4wd this morning to try to get The Little Kid to daycare.. the one the school sponsors.. that is always open. It was open, but there was only one kid there so far, and the one staff who was there doubted they would be open for much of the day. We decided to go home.

I checked in at work, and found the office closed to “all but essential personnel”. I was guessing this didn’t include me. About 15 minutes later, my boss called me at home to say, “stay home”.

This is the second official snow day I’ve had in the last year. At Mutual of Omaha, we NEVER had them. On a lucky day, we would be excused an hour or two early, en mass, so that we would take an hour or two to get out of the parking garage. I exaggerate, but I’m sure you get my meaning.

If the snow lets up, it may be “build a snowman” time later.
