2-5 and a little more where I work. I work on the island of misfit toys that I can't get away from. However, with that being said, I'm taking the day off. I was taking a half day anyway. Jobs not important enough to drive 45 minutes in the snow.

My boss used the "I used to walk barefoot three miles to school in deep snow line yesterday :hilarious: The one that everyone likes to use.
Don't forget uphill both ways:hilarious:

These was very well written. Although I understand the sentiment from @FutureCEO in his comments, I begrudgingly accept that sometimes older business models evolve and change as time goes on. Believe me, I also pine for the older days when we had many more stores that you could just walk into.

From what you stated, it's all a bit of a balancing act now, and merchants are trying to keep up with the demands of the buying public.
I miss being able to walk into malls. They are mostly all becoming dead now. It is said. They used to be the "place to go". My dh and I had our first date at the large mall where I used to live. The mall where I live now is dead with just a few stores. I went to Bath and Body Works and I was the only one in it. I felt so sorry for the staff I probably bought too much. That was a year ago now, and I still have plenty of soap in my cabinets. :confused:

Used to go to King of Prussia Mall a lot when we lived closer, but I cannot see the point to driving 3 hours to go there. We are only 1 and 1/2 hours from Tyson's Corner Mall in VA, but I hate the layout of it. The last time we went was 3 years ago because my DD15 (was 12 at the time), wanted to go to the American Girl store. No longer plays with them of course and my other 2 dd's don't play with them. Soooo, that was money well spent.:banghead:

We have been lucky this year over here. The mountains seemed to have broken up most of the storms headed for us. We have yet to use the snowblower this year. Great, I just jinxed that. Storm Tuesday.:confused:
