More Snow. just what we needed. We got anothe 20cms or more between yesterday and this morning and it is STILL snowing, with the radar looking like it will last all day.

more friggin snow

If I didn't have Brad to shovel for me, I would have crawled into the snowbank and died by now. That boy is certainly earning his keep around here. Today's snow is light, but what fell last week was very heavy and I could barely shovel the little I did at one point.

Halifax has lifted its curfew, and the State of Emergency has been lifted from the province as of last night. Whatever, didn't see much evidence of it anyhow. But looking at pics from Halifax, there is some friggin snow up there!!! While we had quite a dump, they had quite a mess. Of course, we don't have city streets either to clog, just the highway that runs through the centre of town.

I'm off to Sydney today, but imagine it will take a few hours to get there in this darn snow. I wonder if its time to begin thinking about those snow tires yet...

The school is on its third snow day today...must be a record for them for sure. And the resident teen doesn't get the benefit anymore as she has finished classes. News on the Amber front, she was accepted to St. Francis Xavier University this past week, so we were excited! She has two more universities to hear from, but with the snow days, and their closure for spring break, it might be a while. She is just such a smarty pants...once we got her final transcript and saw it all neat and tidy there, as she had been in two high schools, and some of the courses from grade nine were given credit for grade ten, it looked quite impressive. She has an overall high school average of 87, and a grade 12 average of 91. Pretty awesome I think!
