I am tired of the bravado we from the north have when it comes to snow...especially now that i have kids...people complain because places like virginia complain when they close schools based on a forecast then the forecast fails to materialize...when it comes to my kids potentially being put in harms way, i am glad they err on the safe side, i'd rather they stay home and have a beautiful day to enjoy than be stuck on school buses for hours or even overnight. last week during our latest round of snow, i left work at 11 just as it was starting and despite brining and plowing the driving was horrible...my son had to be to work 12.30-8.30 at target and my insides were churning about the idea of him getting home at 8.30 after 9 hours of what i was currently seeing. i got home and told him to call and see what they thought, they told him if he didn't feel safe then to not risk it. I told him that even if he went in, there wasn't going to be any customer traffic.
sorry for my rant. i guess its just a reaction to social media and how everyone in the north is slamming the southerners.
