Figures

I've said again and again how much I love snow and how much I want more snow before winter is through. Well, I'm about to get my wish. We are slated to get 5-10 inches of the white stuff tomorrow. Hurray! Well...except for one little thing...

I have to travel to western Nebraska for my mother's wedding on Saturday. I had planned to leave Friday after work, but the storm is supposed to hit overnight. Since I don't want to miss the wedding and I also don't want to drive in bad conditions, my brother and I are leaving tonight and will probably drive through the night until we get home. I hope we can beat the storm, but we'll see.

On the plus side, though, is that I will be on the family farm and hopefully will be able to go sledding with my daughter or build a snowman in the front yard where I used to build them myself. I'm looking forward to that.

But oh, why couldn't the snow wait until I didn't have to go anywhere? Ah well. I'll still take it!
