I stayed home from work today. The snow was too much to deal with even with my inlaws’ Subaru. It was having a rough time on these hills. I had to walk up the hill to get the car. And when I got home, my husband was back home. He tried to go to work and turned around. He told me that he didn’t want me to go. I called work and talked it over with the nurse who would have to cover my shift and she said she was already planning to stay. She said she was going to call me to tell me to stay put. So… I did! She will be relieved by the midnight nurse whose husband brought her in to town to stay with their daughter. I get to spend unexpected time with my hubby!
I know that these pics I’m gonna show you are nothing different than anybody else in Ohio has to show, but they help illustrate what I had to deal with.
The first one is looking towards the inlaws’ house. This road is looking up the first part of the hill I climbed to get the car.
This next pic is looking the other way, toward my way to work. It looks up the other hill. You really can’t see the hill for the snow, but you get the hint, I think.
Now, I’m going to go enjoy the chili my husband made, along with a peanut butter ‘sammich’.

Chili and a peanut butter sandwich??? Together??
Interesting combo! Enjoy!
We had rain and now the wind is kicking up something fierce. I am sure I will find my siding in my neighbors’ yard tomorrow.
thought I’d stop and say-”HI”
wow, you guys did get it bad. Upstate new york was slammed too, still gewttign snow and sleet. Roads are treacherous.
to LifeNeedsProtection: Yes, here in NE Ohio it seems most public schools prepared basically the same menu: When they served chili they always had a peanut butter (no jelly) sandwich. aAnd when they served Tomato soup they had a grilled cheese sandwich. This seemed to be unchanged for fifty years. My oldest brother remembers it and when my son was in grade school in the 90′s they were still serving them together.
To snuggsM: Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are staying home and warm.
Thanks for sharing the photos! I love seeing that much snow!
I can’t believe we didn’t get ANY snow this year. I love your pictures!
Hey nurse, you’re one of my heros (nurses) I want to be one!
@snuggssM - The other day I made grilled cheese sandwiches for my daughters and friends. One of them COULD NOT eat it because I didn’t have tomato soup.
