I love the weather we have been having lately. There was a sense of accomplishment every day I came home and could see more of my yard. I felt absolute victory when no white remained! Daniel pointed out that there's been about a 100 degree swing between the -24 record we set last week and the 78 degrees we enjoyed today.
Unfortunately, while the snow was around I had a premature senior moment (no offense seniors). I had to drop some items off at ICC for an academic competition. I needed to take things to the library. I'm not all that familiar with the campus, so I pulled into the main parking lot and had a feeling that the main building ahead of me was the place I needed to be. I couldn't see a sign to confirm my conformation so I took a turn onto a road off the parking lot. As I was driving I thought that the road seemed awfully narrow, but I figured it was just the large piles of snow on either side of me. Then I realized I was driving not on a road, but a sidewalk! I quickly backed up and parked in a legal parking spot without anyone seeing me (sigh of relief). I literally laughed out loud to myself and then debated who I could tell without forfeiting my pride forever. As you can tell, my competent reputation means little as I'm telling the blogging world. This story makes me laugh and hopefully it does you as well.
So let me reiterate...thank goodness the snow is gone.
