I live in a vast white wasteland.
Well, maybe i exaggerate a bit...but there is white as far as I can see.
Heading out today to rescue my daughter from the top of the mountain (she's been at a friend's since Friday), and take her for an eye Dr appt. Hauling all the kids along, too, just to get them out of the house.
No school tomorrow, either.
And they are sayin 6-12 more inches of snow is expected tomorrow through Wednesday.
The only saving grace is Mr Flame is on vacation, so he's home to help me not go insane. But this snow has put a huge damper on all the DIY projects I'd hope to complete this week.
-
We got just enough snow overnight to coat the side streets and make them slick. More snow expected for the next couple of days, but not a lot of it. I'm tired of the cold and snow.
-
We have 2 feet of the white stuff and are now expecting another big storm starting tomorrow afternoon through Wed. night -- WHEEEEEEE!!! :banghead:
The good news is we didn't lose power although 60,000 other unlucky Atlantic City Electric customers to the south of us did.
Also -- our teenage son is the BEST (really!!). Did a fabulous job digging us out yesterday and clearing the driveway and paths for us and M's tax clients to get in and out. Wonder if he knows he's going to have to do it again Wed/Thurs? :evillaugh:
-
Rain, rain and more rain. Right at 40 ish degrees.
-
Been at various stages of cloudy all day....and it's cold and damp. Rain's coming in sometime tonight and turning to snow tomorrow night with wind warnings... :(
Out early this morning to go write TWO offers.....(thank You, God).....hope at least one will work.
Have to be at a required ethics class in the morning....it's mandatory for every 2-year license renewal and is the last chance I have before my May renewal. Yes...I have had almost 2 years to take it. In my defense ...it will be my 6th or 7th time of taking it, it's FOUR HOURS, it's boring...and it starts at 9AM. I hate mornings with a passion.

For some of us, 9 a.m. is close to lunchtime.

Hey, Eupher... you getting any snow yet?

Absolutely! By 9am I'm over half way through my workday and I'm usually getting a break with lunch an hour or 2 away. Come back for an hour or 2 and home at 1. :-D

Thoughts and prayers to those of you caught up in the latest snowstorm. A friend of mine just relocated from Chicago to DC. I never thought she'd be wishing for a Chicago winter while living in DC, but I bet she is this year.

We got about 2 inches overnight, with gentle flurries through most of today, but we're gonna get hammered right about now....

I watched some TV commercials and the news till 11ish last night and then was up at 3. Still haven't slept yet. Is that a full day?

ew. I need my beauty sleep.
I'm not liking my new work schedule. Off Sunday, work Monday, off Tuesday, work the rest of the week. Do. not. like.
-
I'm getting drunk tonight. :hyper:

:cheersmate:
Drink one for me! I am still recovering from last night, and a day of work.
-
Beer in hand, brisket in oven. :yum:
-
Ice and snow all over the Sandhills of Nebraska.
I suspect that sooner or later, I'm gong to go nuts.
But someone please stop me before I register on Skins's island, becoming a primitive.

Will do. Think it's time for pizza too.

No better combo in the whole wide world. Did you hear that Papa Johns donated over 10K to Officer Story's family last week? That was way cool.

I bought my first motorcycle dirtbike from a retired motorcycle cop. The guy was awesome.

Yup, that's him.

We haven't gotten it yet, though it seems to be pretty close.
They keep changing what we are supposed to be getting....

I am so drunk right now...
Goodbye Monday, hello Tuesday.

Dunno, Deb. :-)
Went to bed at 10:30, dog woke me up at 12:30 because she had a critter to chase in the snow outside or had to take a dump - never did figure out which - (btw, damn, it's pretty cold walking out in 6 inches of snow with slippers on :lmao: ), got back to sleep at about 1:30 a.m., up again at 4:30 a.m.
Five hours. That's about right. :coffee:
Doya get to take a nap later? :uhsure:
:-)

'Bout 7 last night when I got done for the day, I went in and laid down on the bed.
That action was strongly recommended as I had reached "bitch" status.... :innocent:
I snoozed a little bit, watched a bit of tv and relaxed and came back out about 9:30....much nicer.... :-)
I have just spent a mandatory 4 hours reviewing state-wide real estate contract forms....in a room with about 125 coughing, sneezing people.....a cold room which hopefully will cut down on germ movement.
I'm back to "semi-bitch" status.....
I need chocolate. :bawl:

If I could get to Photobucket, I'd put a pound of Hershey's kisses all over the place for ya.
But the freakin' firewall won't let me......

I'm much better now....I took a nap, watched some tv with M.....just woke up again on the couch....going back to bed... :-)
