Stuck in the snow

our street looking left

and looking right, with our cat in the driveway

Yesterday it snowed.

If only it had snowed on Tuesday, two days earlier, my car would still be here. You can't get out of our little section of the village on snow days without winter tires because they don't de-ice the roads so Mister Cambrioleur would have been stuck, tires spinning on my street. It's happened to me twenty times before so I know. My one big HA! is the car was on empty and I mean REALLY on empty when I last drove it. I've never let it get that low. Hopefully they ran out of gas and abandoned my car on the highway.

Last night I had a dream that I adopted a german shepard puppy. I've dreamed about this dog before. It was so real this time that I could smell him, weird. He's sending me messages. Adopt me! I'm here! I'll bite people who steal your car!

The snow is pretty and the kids love it. I've had to get a neighbor to take S to school and this morning they were stuck in the snow so it looked like neither her kid or mine would get to go the last day before vacation. Finally another neighbor got them out and took them in. Last night we watched cars skidding all over our road and then they'd get stuck. It's not a lot of snow but they just aren't equipped to handle it. Neither are we. We have to get snow tires this year. Snow tires in Paris! It seems funny.

I know the feeling about cars no equipped for the snow! I was supposed to take MissL to a Dr's appointment 20 minutes away today and I canceled, I don't know if I would have made it!

How exciting that the police found your car!! Hopefully it wasn't damaged or anything!
