Well, "it" has happened!! The North Carolina lock down call has happened. Too bad those of you not in NC missed it. I was surfing yesterday and came across a fellow NCer's blog about the call for snow and how you needed to get bread milk and beer. These things are all true. During any, and I do mean ANY incliment weather, your presence is required, not requested, at the local grocery store, gas station, country/corner store. This is so you can get as much bread, milk and for some beer, as you can carry. Now, has anyone other than me ever wondered what the bread is for?? What about lunch meat or PB&J??  (Most of the time the power goes out, and PB&J is the only option)

 

I have only seen the necessity of going to the store for those particular items only one time in the past, and we had 22 inches of snow then. Of course, until last night when my son calls and said that my 2 yr old will not have any milk if I don't pick some up. I deviated and became "one of those people" On the way in, everyone I passed had at least 1 gallon of milk and I couldn't tell you about the bread. (got too distracted with the panic I was feeling that I may have come too late) My child is not a pretty sight if there is no milk in the house.

 

Anyway, I hope you like the pics of the "SNOW" we had. I think I actually giggled when I say it. I have to say though, it did give me 2 extra hours at home with the kids, so who am I to complain??
