waiting for a little snow

Snow is coming. It's too warm to stick around but everyone is in a panic regardless. The only thing to fear really is the snow/slush refreezing into a nice slick sheet of ice overnight lows with forecast low temperatures in the 20's. I think today should be now worries. Not planning on a milk and bread run.

We are almost finished with repairs from water damage and clean up from the roof being replaced on the house. The last step is the painter coming in to remove stains from the walls. First, he was scheduled to come in Thursday. Then our landlord phoned to tell us the painter had moved our date to Friday. Last night and this morning we moved heavy furniture to the center of the upstairs rooms to be painted and moved smaller objects to the other office and basement. Painter was supposed to be here at 8:30 a.m. and our landlord phoned at 8:30 to say the painter is not coming today because it is already starting to snow/rain a bit where he lives, which is apparently a long distance out of town. So, I can go into work earlier than planned again today and we'll have to return the large furniture to their spots in the bedroom tonight and move them back in again on Monday morning, just in case.

Weeks like this only work because I am underemployed now and can be home whenever I need to. Perhaps the universe knows this and after next week the universe will allow me to have a new full time job.
