It has snowed {hard} pretty much all day. I am pretty sure today was as as close to a blizzard as I have ever seen here. The wind was blowing so hard and it is SO cold! In fact I wanted it to stop so I could take Stratton's picture in the snow but it never let up!! Maybe I will get some pics tomorrow. We didn't get much ice, thank goodness! But the roads were plenty slick. I didn't go to work, the schools were out and just a general rule I use is if the schools are out, I am not getting on the roads unless it's absolutely necessary! Jarrod had to go to work, he sat at the substation in Jonesboro all day, well almost all day. He was on his way home at 5:45pm and got a call that they needed him to take the bucket truck to Wynne! So, he turned around and went back to the substation reloaded trucks and got on the road. about halfway there he got another call. . .they wanted him to go back to Jonesboro and wait!? What?! So, he is back at the substation waiting to see what they want him to do, if anything. It's 8:30pm, so he has been on the clock for 13 1/2 hours . . .getting paid time and a half. . .so it isn't SO bad, but I know he is ready to come home, especially since they aren't doing anything I bet they are bored! They still don't know about tomorrow, either. I just checked the Entergy website a few minutes ago and it didn't look like there were many outages, so hopefully the guys won't have to work (or sit and wait) tomorrow, too!
[Taki wanted outside SO bad, but this is as far as she made it before turning around!]
