Snow Storm
I apologize because I am off one day. due to computer problems.
Today's snow storm is on the correct time.
Last year my husband had to have emergency surgery. In his abdomen was a place that was about to become septic. Three hours after he went into the operating room, he came out . His surgeon was pleased and mentioned that she took out his appendix for no charge. I'm sure that made his day. He woke up slowly and asked the nurse if he had. been shanghaied and drafted into the British navy. (That was an old joke he liked to tell people,)
The weather was not going to be one that a driver would hope for. But on the fourth day, when the doctor reported that he was well enough to go home, the meteorologists reported that there would be snow, sleet, and hail occurring simultaneously.
Now I am from Texas and we have never had that kind or combination of weather. My hope was asking our daughter-in-law if she could help. She was born and raised in Michigan where kids rode their bikes to school in that kind of weather. Or so she says.
We got all of Stan's things and headed down stairs to the check out room. Stan was in the wheelchair feeling as nervous as ever.
Now Oklahoma is famous for hills and deep ditches. I would have had a stroke and heart attack if I tried to drive. But our driver, the wonderful Dana had no problem. We saw drivers speeding around us. Some people went through red lights. The snow and hail beat on the windshield . And we made it home with two Hail Marys and two Our Father prayers.
But the yard was solid white, and we put Stan in bed with a sigh of relief.
I'm sorry that I got off the main subject. This is the only storm that is worth mentioning.
