Snowstorm spring day!

Today is my half year anniversary of being here....and it's 27 degrees and snowing on the vernal equinox!

They say we could get up to 6 inches. S-I-X. OKC is only able to handle small dustings of snow at a time.

This should be interesting...lets hope it doesn't "stick," as it is not sticking at this early hour.

It's also odd that, since they changed daylight saving time to start in March, when we drive to work at 7:30 am in March, it's dark out.

Not full dark, but the dark before the dawn kind of dark. Especially if it's cloudy. It's 7:45 am right now, and very dark and gloomy out.

OKC is far enough west in the central zone that it really does make a big difference. It's light out back home by now, but it gets darker earlier, even during the longest days, than it does here.

Had orientation at work this past week. 2 days of sitting in a conference room with people I will never likely see again on the job, watching training videos. 99% of which do not pertain to MY job in the billing office.

Yawn. It gave me a head ache on the first day, which I still have.

It was kind of fun, though. The facilitator made it as fun as possible, at least. He's a nice guy...did one of my interviews during the extensive screening process.

We are heading out early today to try to beat the big snowfall. Hope everyone has a good weekend!
