Merry Christmas

In case I don't get back to blogging before the end of the holiday.
I just want to wish everybody a safe and Merry Christmas.

The weather is nicer this morning 40 degrees... Not the 30 degrees we had yesterday with the falling ice pellets and rain that made driving and walking very treacherous.
Never have I had to salt my way into my own home. I started up the sidewalks with my 50 pound bag of salt. Only to slide back thru the gate again. Reached for my phone to phone Bud to tell him to throw me a scissors so I could open the salt bag, when he opened the door. So, he tossed me the scissors and a plastic cup and I started to salt my way to the door.

David, the shop man just got in, he stated our parking lot out back is a joke. He finally just pulled straight in so that he wouldn't hit the other guys car that has been parked out back, since he is out of time yet.
I knew the front lot was icy, because I had to hang onto the steering wheel when I got in and out of my car if I didn't want to land flat on my butt.

Getting the ice on top of the ice already on the streets and parking lot then rain on top of it, makes it very slick.

Have ordered the Arby's Roast beef to be picked up at One. Hope it stays warm enough so Kim and Clay don't have any trouble coming over this afternoon to have Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa and Evie.

The girls from Curves never showed up this morning, So guess the boss will get an extra hour out of me today. And since it is year end payroll today, I know I will have plenty to keep me busy till I want to leave.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! And Safe travel if you are traveling anywhere to celebrate.
