So, Poor Deby stayed home sick today. Yesterday was a real drag at work for Poor Deby. She was sneezing and snotting and felt miserable all day. This morning she woke up at 4:00 and couldn't get back to sleep, so she got up at 6:00 and callled in sick. She remembers looking outside and thinking "Stupid liar weathermen. There's no snow out there." (They had said the snow was "supposed" to start around midnight last night.) So then Poor Deby went back to bed and Hubby Dave got up and took his shower. When he was done Poor Deby went into the kitchen to get some asprin and Hubby Dave pointed out that it had "snowed" while he was in the shower. Poor Deby looked outside and sure enough saw a smattering of white covering the deck, but on closer inspection saw that it was only tiny little hail balls, not really "snow". She went back to bed again and Dave finished getting ready for work, making his coffee, etc. Poor Deby heard the front door open as Hubby Dave was leaving, but then she heard the door close again with no footsteps going down the outside stairs. Hubby Dave came back into the bedroom and said "It snowed. I'm not going anywhere." Poor Deby jumped up and looked outside and saw that there was about 1-1/2 inches of the real stuff on the deck! She couldn't believe it! It had only been about 20 minutes from when she had looked outside before. Now it was a raging blizzard! By 8:30 there was about 4 inches. And it kept going on and off all day. The news was saying it wasn't even snowing in Bellevue or Seattle. Poor Deby never found out if the snow ever did get over there, but she has been pretty much house-bound today. Fine with her! She was home either way today with her stupid cold.
