Oh, hello winter!

[Lindsey]

Winter sure came fast this year! It has been storming since Monday with rain and then snow starting Monday evening. By the time we left work yesterday the roads were pretty bad! The driveway had big drifts when we got home but we were able to drive into the garage. The wind was howling all night! Scott shovelled the driveway this morning and slipped a lot of times. I looked out the window before we left and the streets were glare ice! I wanted to stay home but Scott was adamant about going in to work today. So we left. The highway was just as bad! It was like a skating rink! It took us almost an hour to get in today, when it usually takes 20-30 minutes.

Someone from work took our Mexican/Arizona employees out for a drive yesterday to show them how to drive in these kind of conditions and they came back pretty scared and nervous! They have not come in to the office yet this morning! I wonder if they will make it all day. Too bad we couldn't get a nice ease into winter this year, but still it gets worse than this! I hope it hasn't scared them away from Canada for good lol!
