In Like a Lion

Apparently the saying about Marching coming "in like a lion" is true even in Charlotte sometimes. After raining all weekend, the temperature has dropped and the rain has turned to snow, with 3-6 inches forecast by morning.

Right now it looks like there's about two inches down already, and I am sure that if not another flake falls there still will be no school tomorrow and pretty much just short of mass panic in the streets. You'd think it was radioactive waste falling from the sky by the way people around here react. You may think I am exaggerating, but I assure you I am not.

Anyway, besides the weather incident and the thought of having the kids home with me all day tomorrow while trying to get work done (yeah right), the weekend has been rather pleasant. There was the aforementioned dinner/movie date, and then dinner at the home of one of Ben's school friends last night, and today Joel's parents had Ben for most of the day since they were taking him to see a play downtown. Joel and Rebecca and I dropped Ben off at their house and then met friends for brunch, followed by grocery shopping and a nap.

A good weekend, now finishing off with white radioactive waste falling from the sky...
