Snow storm not snowmagaddon 2.0. ....

 thank god.  Well it was only a matter of time.  This being Newfoundland and all.  We got our first snow storm of the season and I think it is here to stay.  The kids come home early yesterday and today they had a delayed opening.  So naturally my high schooler didn't go at all either day. lol 

The dog wouldn't take no for an answer when he asked to go out in the middle of the storm.  FYI he is a shih tzu that is trained to a litter box.  So no real need for him to go out.  But of course he wanted to.  He jumped out the back door when up past his belly in snow.  Then had the nerve to look at me saying help. lol So I had to lean out and not loose my balance and take him out of the snowbank lol .

I have a love hate relationship with snow.  I love the beauty of it when it is down or falling.  Love to take pictures.  But I don't like going out in it.  Only because once I get cold or wet I am not fit to talk too.  Plus the whole slipping and falling down. 

Holy snow storm batman....

What a snow storm we got last night and today.  Except for the kids where already out for Christmas break they would of gotten a snow day.  It was a two part snow storm.  First part started over night and stopped early morning but by late afternoon it started up again and didn't let up till the we hours of the morning.  We had a blizzard warning for over 12 hours because of the high winds.  We got  44 cm's of snow in total.   The city was shut down for the day, the government, the university's and the malls were all closed.  The buses weren't even running it was that bad on the roads.  The sidewalks at this point are nonexistent.  Not sure when they are going to get it all cleaned up.  The kids will be going back to school on Monday so I hope by then.
