I got home from work Monday at 5pm, took a shower, had a cocktail and ate dinner. At 7:00 my pager goes off, so I have to go in to work. The city of Sherwood, City Hall/Library building has a boiler that is down. So after a full day at work I head in. I worked on that boiler all night and got home at 4 in the morning. I then woke up at 7 and went into the office to ensure parts were ordered, then back home, where I slept until 3pm. Trudy was at the movies with the kids (so I could sleep). I hadn't looked outside until she called and woke me to let me know it was snowing.We were in a small cold snap, but were expecting to have rain by this afternoon. Guess what, the weather people never predicted it and we got 3-4" of snow. Par for the course and NW snowstorms, They predict it it doesn't happen. They miss it and we get snowed in, go figure. Basically causing gridlock until almost midnight tonight on some freeways. Luckily the temps are going up and the snow should be melted by morning.
It is days like this I am glad we got rid of the mini-van, and got the Durango for Trudy. She called and I told her how to switch to four wheel lock. She made it home without any trouble, can't say the same for many other people.
