wish I was there

It's supposed to be freezing here in the Dallas/Ft Worth area starting tomorrow-including ice and such and wind chills of 5 degrees, I think this will set a new record or will be the coldest of my personal experience. I sure wish I was in SoWal instead, even if ya'll get this cold front, I'd rather be cold there than cold here!!!!!

Everyone stay warm and safe during this huge winter storm that's apparently about to sweep the South!

It's not so much the cold... and I love snow, it's the dang ice!!!! It is almost impossible to drive on!! Texans don't own snow chains either!

Ice sucks! We don't handle it here very well either. We had bad freezing rain here about a week ago. My car was stuck half in/half out of the garage - about an inch from the garage door frame (and the driveway is level). I had no control over the vehicle and had to wait until it warmed up and the ice thawed. Only 45 more days until Spring!

We're here!!!! I drove the first shift and made it through Dallas without slipping. The roads were clear by the time we were just outside Dallas (around Terrell). Car got iced in MS, but was thawed out in AL. Arrived to rain and a tropical 40 something degrees!

Ahhhhhh....it's good to be home! I'd ship you all here if I could! :wave:

You know that you have left all of us back here in the metroplex with bad "cabin fever" jokes on facebook though, don't you?.😀

I'm startin' to get a little pissy. We were told we had no choice but to be at work. It seems "some" people are exempt. Snow on top of ice...lovely.

DD, come work for the state with me! Right now we're closed to noon but in the end, we'll close for the day I'm sure and our bosses say that you should stay home and take leave if we open and you don't feel you can safely get to work.

I'm hoping hubby will take me to the gym in just a little bit; I need to get my work out in!
