Well, even with the warnings, its always a bit of a shock to wake up and watch the dogs go skating across the concrete in the backyard. Kinda funny, actually. They took off out the back door and skidded across the ice! Dogs usually manage to recover gracefully, though, and made it over to their gravel patch just fine, and had very little problem on the way back, even if their feet occasionally went in strange directions.
Yes, folks, it is ICY here. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about work, most likely wait and see what the roads are like in a few hours. I don't have that much vacation left, and I would like to get to work if possible.
Well, the lights are flickering and dimming, so we will likely lose power at some point. Oh bother. Perhaps I should go shower NOW and not have to wait for the power to come back on...
