Slow Down!!!!!!!!!
As some of you may know by now, I am not from Chicago.
I am a southern California girl....born and raised in sunny, Los Angeles.
So, needless to say, I am not a big fan of bitterly cold weather or the snow.
Even though, I've lived in the Midwest for the past ten years, you would think I'd be used to driving and living in these snowy conditions.
WELL, I'M NOT!!!!
I'm a nervous wreck on the roads and I think everybody else drives too crazy when the weather is bad.
So, slow down and don't blow your horn at people like me who go extremely slow in this horrible weather.
For goodness sakes, I might have a heart attack if one more person in this lovely city honks their horn at me to get out of the way.
Let's keep a sista around a little while, already! I need and love my job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just hope Val, that you are in the slow lane, which is the right lane in most, if not all cases. Not the center lane & not the right lane.

Well Val, just make sure that you are staying out of their way because most of them have lived in the snow for all of their lives and they NEED to get to work too!! Oh, and please don't be one of the people who actually slow down traffic.

Good for you. I too always was a nervous wreck driving alone in ice, snow and sleet. I gave up my car many years and let public transportation get me around.

Val...Last week in the mid of that awful storm Tuesday, work required me to drive down state...took 57 all the way and continually almost run off the road by semis flying by in the left hand lane, fish tailing like crazy. I actually saw one run a car off the road. What is wrong with these guys...They should be setting the example, they drive for a living!
