Snowbound

This past weekend was my weekend to work but first I was invited to a staff Christmas party that our supervisor puts on each year. We all had a good time but there were some of us that had to leave for work and I was one of them.

I got to work an hour and a half before I needed to be there so that I could take a nap. I got that under my belt and was up when the ladies got home from work. I was working the 2:45 - 11 PM shift. During my shift we were suppose to start getting snow and sure enough it let go around 9PM.
I had to be back to work by 2PM on Saturday and because the snow was suppose to continue until noon on Saturday and the winds were going to pick up I knew that if I got back home I would not be able to get back into work on Saturday so I spent the night. Around 2 AM Saturday morning I woke up with nausea and diarrhea. I felt lousy all day Saturday but was there for my shift. I worked until 11 PM but by then the roads were treacherous and Brian said that the snow plows had been pulled off the roads. We were having a blizzard and so I stayed the night at work again.
The lady that was scheduled to come into work this morning at 8 called and asked if I could swap hours with her. Since I wasn't going anyplace- our driveway was drifted in- I told her that I would. Church was canceled due to the storm so Brian spent all morning and part of the after noon clearing out our driveway so that I could come home after my shift was done. I got home at 4:30 and it feels soooo good but I am very tired. I am feeling much better today so it must have only been a 24 hour bug. Thank goodness because I don't want anything to ruin this next two weeks. I'm going to be with my children and their families. It just doesn't get much better than that!
