That Wacky Winter Weather
I know ya'll are probably tired of my weather tirades, and this isn't really another one, its just to say that that winter blast that is taking over the US has made its way to us in Austin...we've had flash flooding in Austin this morning, lots of rain at my house, I've been awake since 2:00am when the thunderstorms came busting into town...its supposed to keep getting colder and the rain will turn to ice on Monday and Tuesday...the entire city pretty much shuts down when that happens because we don't have plows or salt trucks, so we all just stay home...Brian can work remotely from here, so I hope he doesn't try going into town, the overpass will ice over...
this happens every few years, I can remember back in the day when I worked at the computer game company and we'd get iced into our apartments...in some cases you couldn't get out of the apartment complex due to the ice...and just walking to the mailbox was treacherous...anyway, I digress...
I signed up for a basket making class on Sunday but I don't think I'll be attending..I hope they post pone it for another day...I learned to make baskets 20 years ago and haven't made anything in a long time, so I'd like to get back to it...I wish I could make Nantucket baskets, but alas my baskets are much more primative...
