The FACEBOOK Version of "Walking in a Winter Wonderland"

It occurred to me after writing the blog post "Walking in a Winter Wonderland" that i had been updating my status on Facebook the entire time we were going through our adventure getting home last weekend. Here's what my status updates looked like that day.

Dec. 11 4:00 PM         The rain has turned to big puffy white snowflakes. Its beautiful.

Dec. 11 6:49PM           Todays first...drove my snowmobile. Then drove my snowmobile to the bar.

Dec. 12  9:40AM         It snowed last night....IN MY BEDROOM!

Dec. 12 10:32AM        Storm preparedness would indicate you should go to the grocery store before the blizzard not in the midst of it. Maybe we'll try that next time.

Dec. 12 1:46PM           This is CentervilleRoad where I now live. We are stuck in a drift as tall as the hood of my car in the middle of the road just a quarter mile from the house...and we can't even see the house.

Dec. 12  2:03 PM        Out of the drift! Now to find another way home.

Dec. 12 2:26PM          Oops! I meant time to find a new drift to get stuck in.

Dec. 12 2:46 PM          Don't be a Drouare! Stay off the roads!

Dec. 12 3:29PM         Stuck on North Boone School road. Walked home. Now to get the snowmobile.

Dec. 12 5:18PM         I am home safe and sound. Dan has my car in town. We still haven't seen a plow down our road. I ended up walking back from 173 and Centerville Road to my house. Thank goodness i had my ski poles in the car with me. They were the extra advantage that I needed to get home.

Dec. 12 7:49PM         Dan finally parked the car & walked home too. Soon we must bundle up, get on a snowmobile & go move our car. Rumor has it they will plow us out @ 4AM

Dec. 12 9:08PM        My car is safely parked @ Lisa's. Dan & I are both home safely. Heading to bed.

Dec. 13 10:43 AM     Called in sick. Every muscle in my body aches from yesterday's adventures, my car is still in town and they aren't done digging us out yet.

Dec. 13 10:44AM      Looks like the tractor digging us out is getting pulled back to town. The drifts were too big for even it!

Dec. 13 10:58AM     Road is clear. Off to get my car and the groceries that got us into this mess in the first place.
