So I’m not really a fan of winter, but I live in the north. It’s definitely a thing. Last Thursday, the weather decided to go from lovely spring preview to winter in about five hours. Sure, it was raining at first, but I just grabbed my umbrella and all was good. No need for gloves or a hat… or so I thought. While I was having dinner, the rain turned into hail and sleet. It was painful to walk through it and the temperature dropped. I had walked over to the movie theater and after Black Panther (I liked it, but this is no surprise), the weather had changed to snow, covering everything in a few inches. I looked down at the umbrella I brought into the theater with me sadly. It was now useless and I had no gloves for brushing off my car.

Driving home was then a nightmare because of how slick the roads were with the water and snow mix. On the freeway, all drivers were lucky to get up to 20 mph and visibility was horrible. No worries, I’m quite used to driving in the worst so made it home safely; if not slowly.
