5ish? inches of snow on the ground and still more coming down at a moderate pace. A really pretty snowy day. I just tried to go to a party, drove about a mile and a half, and then turned around and came back home. I'm still not used to winter snow/ice driving, when the car slides all over the rode and into another lane just trying to stop at 10 mph I get a bit nervous. I wish we had snow tires, but people in the midwest have never heard of snow tired or chains, and would probably laugh if we had them. I could have made it to the party, but the whole time I'd be there I would just be thinking about the miserable drive home slipping and sliding again...so I ditched. So much for a social life.
