I HATE SNOW !!!
Yes, I do. Its been the worse winter since I moved from New York here in Utah. We started off to our trip to the Benches. Some of you know the Benches and some of you don't. For those of you who don't, they are part of the mountains that are like benches. With the Rockies, they are like seats. They are start ups to the mountains. Well, we left around 7am. Its still dark out at 7am. I haven't been up and out that early in months, maybe a year. Lol. We had a snow storm yesterday that lasted into the night. When we went to bed, it was snowing and blowing. I knew we shouldn't go to the VA hospital, up on the bench, but Dave said the weather would be good and it would be ok. I was in bad mood all night. I woke up about 5am, and turned on the news. It has stopped snowing, but the roads were a mess. I asked Dave if still wanted to go and he said yes, but wanted to sleep until about 6:30am. Wonderful, he gets to sleep while I worry. I took a shower hoping, while I was, Dave would watch the news and when I came out from the shower, he would say we weren't going. That didn't happen, and we left around 7am. We started down our main road which is right outside our complex. The traffic was nuts, and the road where not even salted. Just before getting on the main road, the back door wouldn't open earlier when we got in and all of a sudden the light came on in the car. Grrr...I stopped and tryed to shut the door, but it was frozen. I told Dave I wouldn't leave that space until the door came ajar and I could shut it tight. We sat there for about 5 minutes or so. I then tried it and it opened and I shut it, tight!. We started on the main road again and it was so bad. Still waiting for Dave to say lets got back, he didn't so I kept going. The traffic was going so slow which was strange for Utah drivers. We just crawled. I think we got about a mile and it took us like 20 mins, and we still haven't reached the highway yet. Heaven knows what that looked like. I told Dave I wanted to go another way, and not use the highway. He wasn't talking. He knew I was upset and I new he was upset because all I did was b----. We got almost to the highway and Dave said take the next right. The main road is three lanes wide and I was in the middle. GRRRR...so I made my way over, which took another 5 minutes. We stopped and he called the VA hospital and told them we were having a hard time getting there, and we weren't even half way. He told them we weren't going to make it. I was so happy, but still upset because I knew I had to go back home yet. Grrrr...so we couldn't turn left because of the traffic being bumper to bumper. So we turned right and turned at the next red light. We made our selfs around towards home. We got almost home and I told Dave that I needed to go to the store and get some bread and a few other things. He said he didn't want to because of the traffic being so bad. I said we could go the long way, but I needed to go to the store. He seemed to be ok and we went to the grocery store. We got our things. Wow its funny that no one is shopping at 7:45am. Lol. We got done and I told Dave I needed coffee. Yes, I know its not good, but I was so tense that I needed some. I took him to Starbucks. I asked him if he wanted a hot chocolate. He said yes, and even wanted to go in with me. I then asked if we could sit in there and he thought that was great. He either was feeling better or he knew I was mad because we went out and didn't get to the VA. We had a good time at Starbucks. I really thought I would come home and he would be in one of his moods. We then came home and now he is sleeping in the lazy boy. Grrr...Glad he can rest. So, for you girls that don't get snow, I really wish I could send this all to you. I'm sick of winter and I'm sick of snow, sleet, white rain, ice and slush!!! I want Spring and I want it now. Hope your day is going good. Thanks for letting me vent.
