Here Comes the Snow, Again!

Another snowy day in Virginia Beach - what an unusual winter this has turned out to be!  We go for years without any snow and this year we've had back to back to back storms and even measurable accumulation!!  But today it's snow showers which are pretty to watch and don't stick to the roads and cause problems!

Lately I've been feeling a bit overwhelmed. Kind of like going downhill (fast) on a moving sidewalk that suddenly stops and switches direction with no notice!  So far I've been able to stop myself from falling but . . . don't know how I'm going to get back on track - probably will require a LOT of help. But I WILL get back on track!!  (PS I'm using a Library 2.0 lesson graphic I created!! :-) )

In the meantime - Happy Valentine's Day to all friends & family -

Snow Snow Snow

Prediction - 8-12 inches of snow in Virginia Beach - RIGHT.  Prediction - snow starting Friday night and lasting all day Saturday - RIGHT - VB closed all libraries Saturday and Sunday - OK now you're just being silly!

BUT all of those things are true!  Well, mostly true.  The snow didn't start until very early Saturday morning but it's now 2 p.m. and it's still coming down.  (I have a video but need to get it off the phone and onto YouTube first!)  And yesterday the City did decide to close the libraries - WOW that's monumental!  (Although they did close one other day for some weather event (don't remember what) that never materialized!)  This one was spot-on though and I'm very glad that no one had to struggle in to work only to close early and be forced to take life in hand to get home (have done that before and it's REALLY no fun!).

It's absolutely beautiful out there and I'm very glad that I'm snug inside - time for a nap??!!
