Aaaahhhh!

It's crazy blizzard weather here. Highways are closed, semis are knife jacked on the roads, traffic going through half the state have been backed up for hours. My DH is just nowlleaving work that is 45 minutes away. I'm freaking out! The roads are obviously horrible, and the wind isn't going to help. I just want him home. Doesn't he know I worry? Gah

Re: Aaaahhhh!

  • I hope your DH gets some soon and safely and hopefully he will not have to go in tomorrow.  We have been lucky so far that any snow we get has been melting within 24 hours or so.

  • They kept saying it was going to be a blizzard here, but we only got 4 inches. The roads were icy in the morning though. Hopefully your dh got home safely. It's been a pretty mild Iowa winter so far!

  • Thanks, ladies.We weren't suppose to get this much, but we ended up getting more. The wind is what's making it worse. I'm sure he will be fine. I worry a lot with travel. Both my grandpa and my mom were killed in separate car accidents. Let's just say, I am the worst passenger possible.

    You sound like you live near me! I just heard on the news that there are a few semi's all over the freeways :/ I hope YH makes it home quickly!!


    Latte apparently does too, and I think maybe it was Purple who may as well. He has a passenger with him who called me. DH will be staying in the town his passenger lives in, because he doesn't want to risk driving it alone.

  • That was here yesterday, MH took an extra shift so he wouldn't have to drive home in the snow, but that means he's working 24 hours of overtime this week, and running on very little sleep. 

    Today he tried to dig his car out of the snow and in the process slid on the ice under the snow and hit his parent's car's bumper. He had to call me home from work so I could drive the car out of the snow while he pushed... Then proceeded to drive his car to his doctor's appointment with no power steering because something wasn't right, then stopped at Walmart, and his car died in the parking lot, he thinks the fuel pump went, so I had to leave work again and go get him 30 minutes away. Awesome. I think it's time for a new car :(

    Ugh, no fun! Sounds like someone needs a new car AND a drink. My DH called. It took him almost 2 hours to get 20 miles. He told me he never gets nervous driving, and this drive freaked him out. On a positive note, he may have saved an elderly man's life.

    Missy you must have missed my SN change. Latte(me) is also purple. I had to change it because TB wouldn't let me disconnect from FB or log in without using FB :-) The wind is still terrible. Apparently they reopened the bridge (to that other state) but driving is not suggested. We also have some idiots driving around town on four wheelers. I am really hoping they get caught and in trouble.

    Ah, well that makes sense.  Was I right about the area?  If so, it's nasty that direction.  The 4wheelers are only acceptable as they are clearing some driveways like my neighbor is so kindly doing.

    You got the area right ;) I wish the 4wheelers were clearing snow but they're just driving through yards and pissing people off. N is up right now because they're so loud. I think it's a bunch of high school and college kids. Our highways have been closed all night and the bridge leading to that other state has also been closed. I think everything is open now but definitely not good driving weather.

    What douchers then! We could possibly have a GTG we're so close.

    I'm down. Though it's probably best to wait until it warms up! (early spring maybe?) Does Papps live close to us too?

    Yikes!  I hope everyone made it home safely.  Those storms were no joke in some areas. 

    And no, I didn't need to quote anyone, but yes, I did it anyway.  Long live the quote tree!

    Long live the quote tree! :P
