Well, I was actually skeptical the snow would bring this much SNOW. Since in the past we get the hype but hardly get anything. I apologize to the weather people for my optimism. So glad we don’t need to be out in this craziness.
I’m keeping everyone who needs to be out there in my prayers. Please be safe and stay warm. AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK! Especially, public transportation (snow removal) and safety and health care workers. (As I was one of you in my past life.) 🩺🚑🚓🚔 (I can’t believe there isn’t a snow plow) ❄️❄️💓💓
