Profound Passions of Persephone

1.27.2004

Bayless and Affton are the only two schools in St Louis that are open or not on a snow schedule today.
{damn county schools!!}
I was willing them to close too, dreading the scraping of my car! No such luck for me this morning!
So I trudge outside to my poor, frozen 1989 escort. I had to pry the door open, once in, she started right away!
WOW! What a god car! An oldie but a goodie! So I turn on the defroster for the front and the back, put on my gloves and grab the scraper. Knocking off the snow, I notice that it looked like diamonds. It was beautiful! Too bad what was under it had to be so damn ugly! My front windshield had 1/2 in of ice and the back had 1/4 in. It took me 45 minutes of scraping and warming the car to get it to where I would be able to see enough to get the kids to school! I just didn't have enough arm strength to chip that ice off! I am exhausted!
Do I win some kinda prize for having the most ice on my car? Cuz I know I must have!

Time for a power nap!
