Ice Storm 2007, Again?

Hey everyone, just a quickee post, it's been a long time since I've posted on our family blog. Probably the last one would have been when Momma visited in August! Life's been busy, as you all know, most of it accounted for with my new job. I'm doing this post at 8:10am. Normally I'm out with my running buddies on some trail in the Ozarks. As you have guessed, I am not doing that today. The main reason is that I'm interviewing on Mon-Tues this week for the permanent dept head position at work. My interview was scheduled for Wed-Thurs but they moved it up due to inclement weather (because someone else was scheduled Mon-Tues and can't get here). So, instead of having 4 days to get ready, I have two (this weekend). So I worked all day yesterday on my notes for questions that people may ask me, as well as my presentation to the entire faculty. I called dad for some advice and we talked for an hour and a half! Here I sit again, Sunday morning getting started on revisions and new ideas for the presentation.

The other reason for this post is about weather (see the header?). We are expecting another ice storm today and tomorrow. I'm posting a couple of pictures from last January's ice storm that kept us in the dark for 14 days. This one isn't expected to last that long, but I sent Jay to Walmart this morning for supplies. Here he is from last January hauling up water from the creek so we could flush our toilets.
The other is a taken from my office window at work...isn't that amazing.




So, word of warning, we may be high and dry again for the next couple of days...and if so, then my interview will be moved to later in the week! If not, then send me positive energy Mon-Tues for my interview. Love you all. Kelly (and Jay)
