Snowy Sentiments

This morning, we were greeted with a walkway full of snow.  This led to a sidewalk full of snow, a driveway full of snow and a car… well, not *full* of snow (all the doors and windows were closed), but certainly covered in snow.  This would have been bad enough, but our driveway full of snow led to a street full of snow.  No snow plow had been through yet.  There was no way I was going to get shoveled out and get to work.

I called up and asked to work from home.  My boss allowed it, provided I could be productive.  I holed myself up in the bedroom with a laptop and a VPN connection while B kept the kids busy and relatively quiet.  Except for the occasional interruption when the boys forgot that I “wasn’t home” and was “in the office,” it worked out nicely.  I got a lot of work done and was able to take a shoveling break as well.

My first trip out shoveling led to my fingers going from cold to numb to hurting.  I took that as a sign that I should head in.  On my second trip out, I brought my camera for a few quick shots and then went back to shoveling snow.

For one shot, I decided to send the snow a message.  I’m sure many from the Northeast would agree with me.

If you live in the snowy east, how was your Monday?
