Snow, snow, and more snow

I grew up in NY state, so I've seen my fair share of snow. Honestly, I'm not so much of a fan of the white stuff. I'll admit that it's beautiful when the flakes are falling or when the trees and ground are covered in a blanket of clean white snow. However it is not fun when we get up to 15 inches of snow in one day in an area where they do not have proper snow removal systems. School was cancelled on Friday and the snow piled up all day. My roommates had to park at the bottom of our street, about a mile away up and down hill. They had to walk home. My car was stuck in the driveway for 4 days. Church was cancelled. The bowling party was cancelled. Christmas party, cancelled. Cabin Fever in full swing. The house is extra clean. We finally got the whole family out and to the mall to do our Christmas shopping on Sunday. Then Monday I was sick all day. Boo! The good news? I'll be home for Christmas in less than 2 days. Even though it's in NY and there will probably be MORE snow!
