Date: Sunday, 3/1, Home in Marietta, Ga, 2:30 pm.
My wife is the kind of person that will worry about anything there is to be worried about. She is a very kind person and watches the news everyday. For anyone that has lived in the south, especially in the state of Georgia, they know that the weather is something to be admired and there is no telling when you might have to break out a sweater even if you wore a tee-shirt the day before. It started to snow on Sunday and had been raining a couple of hours before the snow started. Usually, the rain will always prevent the snow from sticking or accumulating on the ground. Sunday, the snow started to stick and was coming down at an amazing rate for a couple of hours. I noticed that my wife had started to pace the floor and was watching the news while the snow was falling to the ground. I knew what she was thinking about and it would be only a matter of minutes before she would make some remark about the roads overnight and missing work the next day. Sure enough, she started with the worrying remarks and soon had called her boss to confirm how to handle the next morning. I asked myself why does she have to worry about that know when the morning is 16 hours away. There are so many things that she could think about or do especially when we hardly ever see any snow anyway. I told her that she should just enjoy the snow while it is here and deal with Monday morning on Monday. Do you think she listened to me? Even with the snow, it was a good day for me as I watched the pacing of the floor.
