My take away from my first winter snow (and ice) storm is that they're pretty but mostly kind of a pain. At least DC is pretty mild.

I have a tendency to fall and slip when it's sunny outside and the temperature is in the mid 70's. Heading to work tomorrow will be...interesting. - Derrick

I've never made biscuits before. Tomorrow it's supposed to snow, so this is how I choose to celebrate; from watching it fall from the safety of my apartment with a buttered biscuit in hand. - Derrick

My best moment? When I stopped comparing myself to where everyone else was in life. All that did was hold me back. Your life isn’t meant to look like anyone else’s because you aren’t like anyone else. You are your own best thing. Know that YOU are enough.
