Feature Four

Who knew St. Louis could get this much snow? 3-6″ estimated, but no one ever knows until it’s already come and gone.

In the midst of my cough and dizziness, I helped my father try to move the rear-wheel drive car out of the street. After quite a bit of turning this way and that, we finally managed to twist it the 90 degrees it needed to be parked. Then we cleared off the other car so he could haphazardly go out and buy my mother an almost-late Valentine’s Day gift. Strange, as he doesn’t like V-Day whatsoever.

It feels downright bloody hot in my house compared to outside, and my throat can barely take it. As long as I don’t let the coughing fits start, I’m mostly okay, but it’s still relatively miserable.

The good news is that my school was canceled today, so I didn’t have to worry about trying to drive in the snow. Not that I would have made it out the door, given my current state of wellbeing.

Stay warm, everyone, and take care of yourselves.
