Driving home last night was an adventure. It had been freezing rain for a couple of hours when I left work at midnight. The police were warning everyone as they left the building not to use any of the freeways if it could be helped, as they had been getting lots of accident reports on their scanner. So I took the surface roads, at baout 25MPH. At a few points you can look over from the road I took home and see the freeway. All of the big trucks had their emergency flashers on and were creeping along --
I was going a lot faster than the freeway traffic was. I slid through some of the intersections, as you literally could not stop. Thank God very few other cars were out and about, so I did not hit anyone or get hit. I was so happy to make it home!
Today Steven is supposed to go get his yearly hearing test and see a specialist at UM hospital. He has genetic hearing loss. I hope the roads will be clear enough to take him in. If the clinic is even open, of course...who knows if the employees can

even get there...
No school, of course...
They were already short handed at work, I am sort of expecting a call from there to come in...even if I have worked 11 of the last 12 days...but I can't because of the appointments for Steven...
