Snow/sleet

This morning I woke up to ice hitting the window. I got in the shower and got ready for work and then I woke up John to take me to work. I cleaned the ice off of the car and warmed it up. We drove to work in 4-wheel drive, the first time I've had it in 4-wheel drive this winter, and it was pretty nasty. The rode was snow covered and then packed down with ice on top. I'm glad he drove me. The ride to work it about 20 minutes normally and it is mostly highway. But the commuters on the highway drive crazy. We had to be there at 5 am so not too many people were on the rode thank goodness. So me and John unloaded the truck and he stayed with me until someone showed up around 7:45 because he didn't want to leave me there by myself. The power went off for about 5 minutes after he left and I had opened the store, so did the McDonalds and Exxon station and the stop light but there didn't regain power until about noon. We finished putting out the truck before I left at 3pm. When we were coming home the roads were just wet and it was raining. So now I'm home cuddled up on the couch and thinking about making some hot chocolate.
