We're running out of space
Feb. 6th, 2015 08:44 amWe had more snow last night. Thankfully no ice on top of it, but it rained during the day and then it snowed, so there's a good layer of ice underneath all the fluffy snow.
And now the temps are down in the double minus numbers. I'm psyching myself up to go out and clear a path to my car and clear my car off before my plough guy comes. He's going to need to dig out the end of my drive before I can move my car, though. The snow has drifted badly.
Yet again, the entire city is a gridlocked mess due to the ice. And the city government is warning that they're running out of places to store the snow. Considering we had bare ground two weeks ago, this is impressive.
And another storm is coming in Monday/Tuesday. Argh.
But at least I have a few clear days before that, and I got groceries yesterday. The only issue was that I couldn't reach the vet yesterday, so I'm running low on cat food. Hopefully I can rectify that before we run out. If only they were open on weekends...
On the positive side, I did get out yesterday, and I've never been so happy to see my co-workers in my life. So I'm less cabin fever-y. And tonight there's rugby to watch, which always makes me happy. Plus, after this next storm, the long term forecast looks clear for at least a week. Maybe the city will be able to get the roads safe to drive on.
