...what the weather is like in Sowal. It is raining/sleeting/snowing/cold here and going to get worse. I kept saying it wasn't going to happen, because "they" say it will and it never does. Well, it is, and I need to know what it's like on the beach while I'm stuck here at work, anticipating the fight through traffic on the way home.

Thanks.:(

72, breezy, all windows open. Flip flops.

But apparently the caca hits the fan tonight and we will be chilling this weekend.

We're southern Illinois, about 20 minutes from St. Louis. We're supposed to get snow, but I wasn't believing it!

I saw all of the Missouri school closings this morning on the news. Wonder why they close before Illinois schools...

My hubby is in Illinois (Ashley) deer hunting for the weekend (:roll: ) and he just called me to say it's still raining there...it's been freezing rain here for about two hours. We have a good two inches on the ground right now ! no snow balls yet ! but the ice-balls are deadly:funn:

Well the snow never really came, just ice! Which does look beautiful on all of the trees, but, then the branches are too heavy, they break, and to make a long story short....450,000 without power! Guess who's one of them :bang::bang::bang::bang::bang: yep me!!!

Why is it that my house always looses power, but work never does :bang::bang:

Oh well, the trees do look pretty.

Well, we are right with you---no power, no heat--came to work to get warm. We also have a huge part of a tree in the middle our pool--I never really liked that expensive stretch cover anyway, but maybe it stopped the tree from cracking the pool. They say it can be days and we all may get to winterize our houses, whatever that entails. All in all, I'd rather be in SOWAL

The temperature has been dropping steadily and the wind is howling like a banshee so it's COLD. It forced me to do the unthinkable today: housework. To warm up, I washed rugs, scrubbed cabinets and floors and more. I think I even broke a sweat. (If you think I'm joking, try industrial cleaning and see how fast you peel the clothes off.) ;-)
