Jade Down Under

Last Tuesday we got 10 cm of snow; not bad, easy to manage. Then Friday came. It all begun around 9 in the morning and by 10 it was hard to see out of our work windows. By 11 I was asking to leave early; I was told 2pm would be fine. It took me an hour to get home when usually (in traffic) it takes a mere 30 minutes. The greatest part was at every street light drivers would emerge from their cars to bang off their windshield wipers, as not only was it snow but it was wet snow that kept the wipers clogged up enough to be useless. At each red light we looked like synchronized wiper cleaners... quite humourous for me who didn't have a care in the world; it was Friday and I was almost home. I made it home, safe and sound, shoveled the driveway, threw my mom, dad and sister in some snow banks and went to bed. The family is fine although my mom had to dig my sister out of the snow pile I got her in!

Anyhow, we all knew this was not the end of it. It is only December and we are Canadian, but another 20cm, by Sunday! Devastating. I am now looking out my window at the mass of snow falling on our once shoveled driveway.
Once again I am not delusional, we are supposed to get more on Tuesday.
