They're Back...

Every year since I can remember my grandma has put McDonalds gift certificates in our Christmas stockings. I always try to save mine for this time of year, because that's right folks, rumor has it that tomorrow brings the return of the Shamrock Shake. Get yours while you can, as they are for a limited time only.

This weather has been the craziest I've ever seen. I tried to get a picture of the lightening while it was snowing, but I just wasn't quick enough. I did though get a picture of my flat tire caused by the weather. You might be asking yourself, didn't she just have a flat tire two weeks ago? The answer is yes, here's the story. I'm on my way home from work in some crazy fog (which I actually like), but since the temperature is changeing the roads don't know what to do. So right as I'm about to hit it, I see a MONSTER pothole. If you can imagine my face as I hear this nasty noise and then I see like 5 hub caps on the side of theroad and I think well at least I'm not alone. As I keep moving I realize that something is very wrong, so I find a side street and pull over and sure enough... The worst part of this is that I just replaced this tire, it has like 200 miles on it and just for fun, I haven't replaced my broken spare tire yet (becasue who would of thought I'd need it so quickly).

Anyway, there were some humourous moments, for example when the 2nd car pulled up behind me with a flat tire and when the third car pulled up with a flat tire. The third car had a football player from one of the colleges in town, and he had NO CLUE about changing tires. He wasn't even sure where his spare was located. I helped him and so did my tow truck driver.

Turned out okay, a friend came and picked me up and even let me use her car so I could go to BSF while it was getting fixed. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this one last me a while.

Snow Day

Can I just say that I have the best neighbors ever. Last night during Lost I heard them outside shoveling my steps, and while I knew I should go out and help, I just stayed warm inside watching TV. This morning, he was out there again cleaning off my driveway. I did go help this time and even had some fun while I was there. I am so loving this day, a chance to be somewhat productive while not getting further behind. Hope all of you who are also having snow days are enjoying it.
