Reply #9: It's pouring here

[1gobluedem]

And my driveway is a sheet of ice; the freezing rain from last night has turned into regular rain but it's just puddling on top of the ice and not melting it. I just went out and tried to break it up to shovel; no dice.

I just left a message asking SO to pick up about 50 lbs of pavement deicer. If I can't get it cleared it's going to be a rough morning tomorrow as it's supposed to refreeze tonight. Yuck.

So, I'm stuck inside for the day but I have plenty to do including tons of laundry. My brother was here for four days so there are extra sheets and towels too. Yay. Snuggling in the chair with my heating pad, down throw, tea, and a good book sounds far preferable.
