Shaun walked over here...

Shaun walked over here and we were going to walk to Wal-Mart, but holy cow... I am too sore to walk that and he's got a blister forming on his foot.  So, we tried things out in my car.  Probably wouldn't have done that if Wal-Mart wasn't so close to me (less than a mile... probably more like half a mile)... but we needed food.  So.  Off we went.

There are still some icy patches out so I wouldn't recommend being out unless you really need to be.  OBVIOUSLY - stay away from hills.  I ended up taking Shaun home so he wouldn't have to walk and there were literally about 7 cars in ditches on Arrow Avenue at the hill.  That is crazy.

When we were walking home from the high school yesterday cars were sliding down that little hill near the school.  Literally all of them did it and I thought that some of them weren't going to stop until they smashed into the car below them.  Thankfully I didn't see an accident there, but we didn't hang out and watch.

Anyway, that's all I know.  I don't see everything being drive-able by tomorrow, but I sure would like to go back to work!

I am seriously having a hard time walking. It hurts so bad.

I haven't done much since we got home. I am sore like whoa. Thankfully, I am finally warmed up, at least.

I have let the dogs out a few times and I keep seeing like... big military vehicles going up my street. Is that happening everywhere? Are they just out helping people, or making sure that no one is out, or what?

We just got home from work. We left at 11:30 am.

We just got home from work.  We left at 11:30 am.  😳

The roads were so bad that it took us an hour to make it two miles in the car.  People were scared to move because they were sliding everywhere.  It was awful.

So... we decided to walk home.  Shaun left his car at Ruby Tuesday at around 12:30 so that is when our journey on foot began.

We stopped at Saks High School to get Shadow then headed home.  All in all me and Shaun walked a little over 7 miles today.  Shadow walked the last 1.5 miles with us.

I am tired.  I am sore.  My face is chapped.  My leg benders ache.  And now I'm getting cold.  Blegh.

I didn't hate it, though.  I didn't like when the snow was blowing right at my face, but there was nothing to do about it.  We stopped and pushed a few people who couldn't get up hills and one lady drove us like, 10 feet up a hill, but ohmygosh, I APPRECIATED THAT.

It was nice, at least, to see everyone stopping and helping each other.  There were a lot of folks out helping - pulling, pushing, either with just themselves or their cars.  But the way the cars were sliding and losing control I did feel much safer on foot.  I do not regret just getting out and walking today.

I did great all day - didn't fall or anything until AFTER we got Shadow.  By that point I was so exhausted and sore that I wasn't very nimble on my feet.  I busted my ass TWICE on the last 1.5 miles.  I am going to be sore as a mofo tomorrow.  😳

Now I'm heading to my couch.  I plan to not move anytime soon so if you need me that's where I'll be.  ❤

The school has called twice...

The school has called twice to say that they're letting out early today and starting late tomorrow. I went to let the dogs out and saw that it was snowing. So that explains it. 😝

I am so tired and I feel kinda crappy.

I am so tired and I feel kinda crappy. Nothing too bad, but I'm coughing sometimes and my throat is kind of itchy and I bit the side of my tongue wayyy in the back - so that hurts.

I think I'm mostly getting over my drug binge this past week. I drank coffee every morning with breakfast last week. Just half a cup a day and it was good. I was hooked by the weekend, though. I decided to have some coffee on Saturday and then promptly barfed it back up. I guess I should have eaten. 

Actually, I shouldn't have been drinking coffee so I quit. I'm probably just gonna feel crappy for a few days. That's what I get!

The Chupacabra...

The Chupacabra is wedged between my back and the back of my chair.  She seems quite comfy.  It's not so bad for me, either.

See Laurel - I told you should wouldn't be a lap dog!  😛

I don't understand...

I don't understand how I should be photographing a flakie nail polish to make the colors show.  I look at my nails, and they are colorful and pretty... and I take a picture of them, and they don't look like what I see.  Am I crazy?

I am not a photography person, but I would assume that since all the nail blogs can swatch them and show the colors, that it is not rocket science, right?
