Snow Day

Yesterday, it snowed 2 inches in the Midwest and the city shutdown! Schools were closed "snow day" and traffic was gridlocked during the morning hours. Can you imagine?

Unfortunately, my aide Sharon had a car accident on the way to work which meant that I spent the day with Muddear. Thank goodness, Sharon wasn't injured but her car was possibly totalled. Actually, I was surprised when Sharon called me - she was hysterical! I spent 10 minutes calming her down and telling her what to do. You know like - call the police, call for a tow truck, etc.

Today, the saga continued...

Sharon wasn't able to get a rental car until late morning/early afternoon and she was "supposed" to arrive at 1:00 p.m. By 1:45 this afternoon, both Mike and I were in a panic because the aide had not arrived. Mike stayed home with Muddear but needed to leave by 3:00 p.m. and I thought I was going to have to leave work earlier than planned.

But it the drama continues on...

Earlier in the week I requested Sharon to arrive an hour early on Friday (tomorrow). Due to the weather, Sharon asked to spend the night to make sure she arrives on time. Please understand that Sharon is NEVER late for work, but since the accident she is terrified to drive. I really like Sharon, but this is a little bizarre. Like, where would she sleep?

However, because there is no way I can be late to work tomorrow morning, I think I am going to let her. (I do have a pullout sofa in the family room.)

Now I have been sucked into the drama.
