Ice storm

Just thought I would share the lovely weather we have been having here in Nebraska! Yesterday we had freezing rain that layered my car in about 3mm of ice. Yeah, that was fun to scrape off. Actually it was a little entertaining to go out to the parking lot at the dental school and see us all trying to scrape our windows after clinic. The lot was filled with the joyous sound of scrapage. Ha ha.
You can't really tell from these pictures, but there is a layer of ice on my entire car. It has been that way for a day because it has been too cold for it to melt. I did get some cute little ice-sickles though!
Today we got a bunch more snow, which just fell on top of the frozen-ness. Yep. Luckily Creighton is probably the last place in Omaha to close for inclement weather, so school was still open! Yay. However, the clinic was a ghost town on account of all the patients who determined it was too dangerous to go to the dentist. Luckily my patient did show up this morning! That was an adventure. However, I did get the afternoon off because that patient cancelled. Sweet, I'll totally take a pseudo snow day!

I think you all had the same weather as us! The schools were all closed due to the freezing weather, and the frost-bite inducing wind chill. sorry you still had to go!
