I had taken the day off today for two reasons. They called for a snow storm for today and I wanted to avoid driving in the snow and of course it didn't even really snow at all. The second, I had a personal day that I needed to use up or lose it, so I went ahead and used it. Of course the snow storm that they said we were going to get 6-8 inches of snow and we didn't even get an inch of snow. Again, they talked of this huge snow storm and we got nothing. Not sure why it is lately that they are always over stating these storms that never amount to anything. I was able to go get some running around that I needed to do. Now I wont have as much to do this weekend. I also to the day as a personal day since I would lose out on the pay. Since my last day is Friday I would have to use it or lose it so of course I used it. I used my two sick days in January. With vacations day I will get paid out for those so I will get an extra 2 days on my last check. Hope you all are having a good day.

They're forecasting storms and rain here. We'll see how right they are.

@Bensen32 The capital had a really wild storm but mostly it's just been rumbling thunder here.

@JudyEv Oh well that is good for you then. From what I understand you all could use the rain though so that is good as long as it is not causing flooding.

It's nice that you were able to take the day off. It's not always pleasant when things don't work out with work and jobs and such.

Yea, it sucks but what you going to do? Not like I can do anything about it and I certainly am not going to cry over it.
