Hail storm!

I had a GREAT time with Jem Friday. We drove to the theme park for a couple of hours of coaster fun, then headed home just before the rain got heavy. For lunch, we tried a new Thai place that I loved. Spicy and tasty, with exceptional service. Rested for a bit then I took off to finish Easter shopping. When I came home the storms were really getting good and I wasn’t even able to get my loot inside before all hail broke loose…

A friend of mine shot THIS VIDEO and I feel terrible for the terrified horses running in the background.

Waiting on the snow to come…

Outside it looks like this

What does all of this mean for the kontan house? Right now it means I struggle to force my big dogs to remain outside and they are currently curled up under my stool. The little dog flat out refuses to go outside. My phone tree is ready for utilization but I find it difficult to embrace the snowy possibilities. No school tomorrow means a loss of one spring break day. If we have to be out I’m hoping for the 8 inch margin…Might as well get a lot. If we are out and it is only an inch I’m going to be highly peeved.
