Tonight around 8 we heard a large truck drive down the street. Today IS trash day, so I thought perhaps it was the yard waste/compost truck or something random. (Yes, they have things like a special pickup for that up here. Yes, we live in Seattle.) Seemed a little odd, seeing as it was so late at night.
As it drove back down the street, I looked out the window and saw that it was, in fact, a snow plow. It is evidence of the lack of snow-related infrastructure in place that our street got plowed ten days after the heavy snow started. In the meantime, we’ve spent days stuck in the house because there was snow up to our bumpers and we figured it wasn’t bright to drive in that. And then starting about three days ago the temperature went above freezing and the blessed rain came back (who’d have thought we’d say that, eh?) and started to turn all that snow into slush, which made it possible to drive carefully.
It was just a “huh” moment.
I still do have pictures of us enjoying the aforementioned snow, and of course we have had some holiday fun I could post about. So don’t fret, dear readership. I’ll get to posting eventually. Lots to do, you know. I’ve been working on baby laundry and figuring out where to put all that.
Baby laundry? Does that mean there actually might be a baby coming in the next month-ish? Yikes.
Yeah, baby laundry…you thought laundry was annoying before, wait until you start having full loads of tiny things to sort through and fold =) The greatest blessing is when they are big enough you can just wash their clothes with yours!!!
I had to scrape my windshield for the first time EVER the day after Christmas, but no snow….you guys have all the fun!!
