A Little Dusting of Snow.....But Boy is it COLD!!!!

I know it is cold everywhere.....but here in sunny North Carolina, considered by most to be the South, it is currently 24 degrees with a wind chill of 14.  And it is supposed to be 9 degrees on Saturday.  Boo hiss!!!!!!!

This greeted me when I came home yesterday:

I am not sure if it was a testament to how cold it is, a testament to feeling like it is too bad the holidays are over and the work grind starts again or practise for the zombie apocalypse.  

Our snow was minimal ~ it covered the street and the driveway and when I was walking the dogs last night I notised that neighbors who were driving were driving REALLY slow and carefully.  The snow was dry and not slick at all. 

I am off to work.  Have a beautiful day!

Love,
Leslie

An addendum:  I tried to go to work....the roads here were a little messy but ok.  I don't drive on 40 (which is the major highway) I take 70 which is a two lane little roadway which parallels 40.  As I got closer to Durham, the roads got worse.  Then, when I was 18 miles west of Durham the roads just got horrible and the weather and news guys were saying it was only going to get worse with black ice ~ so I decided to turn around.

I texted Lori and she said schools and the courts were closed in Durham, so I guess it is good to just stay home.
