What kind of yardstick is she using anyway?

Driveway
Yesterday morning I had an appointment at 9 so I watched the weather at 6:30 to see what the roads would be like. The weather girl was calling for 2-4 inches of snow in our area and there’d been wrecks all over the place with traffic a complete mess. My neighbor said the weatherman she watched was calling for 4 to 6 inches. She drives a school bus and was very disgruntled to be working.

It took me something over 2 hours to get where I was going. I think I was about an hour and a half late but I was able to call and let them know and of course they were prepared for latecomers anyway. Driving in the snow is not something I’ve had much experience with and getting home was something of an adventure since there was little traffic heading away from Boston. I had a couple good slides but in the end I made it home safely with just enough time to shovel before fetching Daniel. The plows had been down the street once we must have had 5 inches of snow on the street again by the time I got home. I cleared the bottom of the driveway first so I could get my car out of the way and then worked my way up from there.  I certainly got my exercise!
