So today I had to work at 6 AM in the labs. When I went outside to go to work, there was snow on our front step. That means there is a lot of snow at the top of the stairs because we hardly ever get snow to actually stay on the steps. ANYWAY! I started heading for work, boy was that fun. I had to basically shovel to find my car and get it going. I would usually walk, but there was so much snow that my ankles were already freezing from just walking to my car. As I drove to work, I almost got stuck but my wonderful driving techniques saved me from horrible embarrassment. hehe. ANYWAY! As I was walking on campus to work, I realized how gorgeous it was to watch the falling snow in different lights. I couldn't believe it, it took my breath away. I found this picture online, but as I was walking, it was so peaceful. There was no one on campus and it was just gorgeous. Unfortunately I didn't really have a good time to watch it fully because I was late to work and I needed to get there as soon as I possibly could. The cool part was, they hadn't put the salt on the sidewalks yet, so I was "walking" down a hill and I just started sliding. Basically, I was snowboarding to work, except I was only wearing shoes. It was a fabulous morning and I'm happy that I got to experience it, except for that fact that it was 5:50 AM....

How fun. at 5:50 A.M. i was sleeping peacefully, as it snowed outside my window.
I love that! One thing I loved about doing papers in the snow was that I was always alone and it was so quiet. I love that when it's snowing! I love looking up when it's snowing. It looks way cool.
By the time you go to work at 5:50 am, I will have gone to work, done 1 1/2 loads of laundry, gotten one child off to school while still getting the other ready, fixed breakfast, and made lunch for my fiance.
Wow, you are going to make a great wife.
lol that's exactly what I was thinkng. Is it just because you're two hours ahead of us? psh!
that could possibly be it :) I agree with Katelyn about the paper route thing. That was awesome!
Well, the different time zone thing does help a bit....
