This morning as I was getting ready for work, the local news channel showed a camera shot of I-77 which is my route to work. She showed one particular pesky exit where traffic always backs up and said, “Wow – look at that backup! You might want to give yourselves a few extra minutes this morning to get through this if you are coming north into Charlotte.” I saw that cars were moving slowly, but she then claimed cars were at a “dead stop.”
Taking heed of her warning, I left 10 minutes early.
And got to work 15 minutes early.
Because there was NO traffic when I got there fifteen minutes after her dire announcement. In fact, there was less traffic than usual, thus my ability to do the drive five minutes faster than most mornings.
*sigh*
The good thing about getting here early is that I was able to do a quick filing project that has been languishing because I just never had time.
Just want you to know that I read with GREAT interest about. . . traffic, neighbors, weather, churches. . .you know why, right?? š
Cuz you are moving down here???????? š
Funny, our traffic report said “heavy but steady” all the way to work.
Reality: DEAD STOP most of the way in. Why: State Police had someone
pulled for a HOV violation and everyone wanted to see!! I hate traffic!
Okay, that’s a whole bunch of commenting for me this week. [backs into
lurkdom]….
*lol* Bev! No! Stay! Comment away! Do you mean to tell me I’ll only hear from you every January???
Um, usually I don’t have much to say, but I always READ!
Yep, living vicariously through others, that’s me! *lol*
