wish I was there

Ice makes terrible snowballs, but really good broken bones

This weather just might delay our departure! Wind chills in the negatives and no warm up until Friday.

DD....I thought about you. Glad you made it. Kimmi and I had to cancel our lunch today.

Dammit! Sorry you had to cancel your lunch. And I damn sure hope you get to leave as planned. Pucking weather.

Yeah, not a fan of freakin' frigid weather. It doesn't even bother me when people make fun of my fear of driving on ice. Since we normally do it once a pucking decade, I forget how to do it. Luckily, it's just rainy, cold, and a bit windy in Ga. right now. Y'all just be careful out there!!!

We have about 16 inches on the ground and 20 degrees. Hoping to dodge the big bullet bearing down a tad south of us. Gee, SOWAL with a high of 64 today sounds lovely. Wish we were there!!

Instead of dealing with the roads to get to the gym, run around the yard, make a snowman, shovel snow, and have a snowball fight.

Great way to burn calories - just lift with your knees, not your back.

Since I quit snow skiing 20 or so years ago, I don't have snow gear-even when I did, my snow gear wasn't adequate for 5 degree wind chill factors!!! I made it to the gym and back, doing about 20 mph each way, with some idiot riding my tail on the way home-hence the zillion wrecks in the Dallas Ft Worth area today!

i hate this crap.

i hate this crap.

...what's to hate? The ice rink streets or the negative wind chill?
Or, wait....I jsut heard about rolling blackouts!!!!!!

 

[BeachbumAggie]

good news is my office isn't opening until 1pm today, I am waiting on the roads to clear a bit and then hitting the gym

I'm hating all the repeating news coverage! One reporter referred to the ice as a "hockey rink" because he'd called it an ice rink so many times - just STOP REPORTING the same stuff and let me watch the Today Show already!

It snowed yesterday and started raining around 6:00 last night. It rained through the night and now is snowing again. Looking out the window, the snow is blowing up the street, down the street and then almost straight up. The wind is whipping around like crazy. I had a rough commute to work today, I almost tripped on the stairs going up to the bedroom/office.

Now I am once again made aware of why Betty and I downsized and moved to Florida. One of the smartest moves we ever made. I can say that until at least the next hurricane season has passed, and if lucky, keep on saying it. Since today is Betty's birthday, we will go to PC to pick up her new cancer medication and on to lunch on roads devoid of ice. I definitely can relate with all you people. We use to live in Edmond, OK.
