First Snow

Well, Mother Nature gifted us with about two inches of the white stuff overnight. Magnus didn't quite know what to think of it. (According to his previous owner, he was born in January and they probably got him around March, so he probably didn't see much snow.) DD wanted to go out and play in it--at 6:30 am!

It was quite slick driving to work today. People get stupid when it's the first snowfall of the year. I passed by several cars that had slid off into the ditch as I drove to work on the interstate. I was sure to drive slow. It wasn't too bad until I pulled into the town where I work--the roads already had an icepack underneath. Ugh. And because of accidents on the main roads, the secondary roads had a lot more traffic, which made those routes more dangerous.

But I made it.


***Nano Update***

Well, unfortunately, November was not a good month for me. I missed the first few days of writing because my grandmother was visiting, and I was exhausted after the visits. To have a successful Nano, it's very important to get off to a good start. In the second week, I did manage to write about 15,000 words, about half of which were actually on my Nano idea. As soon as I can, I will post my ten reasons for not completing the Nano goal this year.

However, I did manage to do quite a bit of paper journaling, so shouldn't that count??? I just wish I wasn't so exhausted all the time.
