Ok, so in my previous post "Blizzard 2011" I posted something that then I did not understand, but now - I understand clearly. Crystal.
Beer in people's grocery carts. Lots of it. Cases of it. Beer isle in store - very bare by the end of the day last Monday. I made fun. I giggled inside. I scoffed. I shunned. I blogged.
I'm sorry. Very sorry.
I now understand the value of beer. And, lots of it. Next time we are forecasted 18 inches of snow, my cart will be full of beer. Cases. I, most certainly, will bump into my Pastors, folks from church, my child's teacher with a cart full of beer. I will be proud of my cart, and if their cart is not full of beer, I will suggest that they hurry right over and fill theirs, too, as the supply will surely be dwindling.
5 straight days without leaving my very small, old town property. One two year old. One 5 year old. One 7 year old. One husband. One large dog with something wrong with his leg. One pesky Basset Hound puppy. 21 + 4 inches of snow. Dwindling groceries. Way too much Nick Jr.. Ice Dams. Multiple Ice Dams. Water running down our painted, sheet rocked walls & dripping down the inside of our windows & then freezing. ALL good reasons to have beer. Lots of it.
A can an hour, and I think I may have dealt with it all a tad bit better.
Don't judge me.....
Gotta run....freezing rain & snow in the forecast for tomorrow....hopefully there's more beer available than we have snow plows in this little town! Meet you in the beer isle at Reasor's!
