WIWW – Sunrise to SnowStorm

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday

Yesterday’s snowstorm was predicted to start around noon in our area but it actually began at 9:00 a.m. in West Chester, PA.  However, before it’s arrival the sky was highlighted by a brilliant sunrise. #GodsLight

Knowing that I would be driving home in a snowstorm, I opted to wear pants to work as opposed to a dress or skirt.

 I wore a denim shirt under this handmade vest which I had to take back from my son.  Hubby had these matching vests made way before we had him so it was kinda funny when I had to retrieve it from his closet.

Brass and Bead necklace was a flea market find and ring was purchased at Burlington Coat Factory.  My “work” shoes are from Kmart and although they are not very fashionable, they are extremely comfortable.

The snow continued with a vengeance so I left work at 11:30, but the roads were so bad that I didn’t get home until 5:00 p.m.  Needless to say, I was upset and tired but I was also extremely thankful because there were so many cars stuck in snow and on the side of the road, I could only think “I’m blessed”.

This was 5:30 – what a difference a drop in temperature makes!
