well we did loose our electricity last night. It was only off for a couple of hour's. Didn't take long for the house to cool down. Hubby got called out at midnite, there was a tree down in a little town not far from us. I am so not looking foward to the snow unless I can stay home from work. I wish spring would hurry and get here.

We managed a high of 2 today. LOL How silly that sounds... but we were glad to see it!
It's supposed to be warming up again tomorrow so that's something to look forward to. I truly hope this is the worst of it for the year.
I swear we HAVE to get something better built for the dogs this summer so I don't have to bring them all inside next year. 6 dogs this size in at once is a wee bit overwhelming even for me. :eek:

We're suppose to get 6-10 inches of snow today!!! We got a phone call earlier this morning that school was canceled!! Yeah!!!! A snow day!!!!! So far we only have about an inch or so but it's suppose to get heavier and be windy so we might be stuck at home for awhile!!

I would use magic to help take off this weight, clean my house, clean my garage, make my husband disappear, make wars end, make winters end, make bad weather go away, always have spring and beautiful flowers...have all dogs have a loving home and they were all trained and potty trained.....do I dare go on?:p

Yay Diana, you got your wish! The snow is to move in here later today. A possible 4-8 inches and the weather guy said it will be a mess tomorrow morning. We are north of Indianapolis and they said it would be worse north of there. So, we'll see. I hope they cancel school for us tomorrow. I'm worried today though, because they said it would start around 11:00 this morning and my son just 'had' to drive to school. Then he is suppose to work tonight. Makes me so nervous this bad weather and bad roads.

I really want to move so bad. This is why I need the magic Judy...so I can make all this bad weather go bye...bye.

I don't think that we're going to get much snow after all. :( We only have a couple of inches on the ground and I'm not sure what we'll get this afternoon. But ........it is still snowing.......barely!

Come on, Snow!!! You know that Janet doesn't want it so go ahead and leave it here!!!!!!

Janet 01-31-2008 05:37 PM

I guess we won't know for sure what we'll get until we wake up in the morning. They heaviest snow is suppose to fall after midnight. I really want a day off, but not the snow. I'm really starting to get on my nerves.....LOLOL

Marilyn 01-31-2008 08:38 PM

No snow, but it was really windy here today. I call on a coal fired power plant, and there were black coal fines flying in the air from their stockpile. It was nasty!!!

Janet 02-01-2008 03:19 AM

Well crap!!!...lolol. I wanted a day off and we are only getting a 2-hour delay. Oh well, to get a day off we'd have to get a lot of snow and I really didn't want that.

My son won't be too happy though, it's very slick out and he will be riding the bus with me. I don't want to worry about him sliding off somewhere.

My father always told me that real, hard winter only lasts 6 weeks. He was in the wholesale produce business, so he knew these things. I don't think he was right - or at least it never seems that way.

At least we're all safe at home.

Isn't it great that God doesn't try to keep up with all of our wants? We'd have Him sooooo confused!

Janet 02-02-2008 04:20 AM

No kidding!!!! We all want so many different things.

I absolutely cannot imagine living in Wisconsin or Indiana. Brrrrrrrr, just too cold for me. I'm a warm weather girl. Give me 80's and 90's and I'm happy!!! When it gets to 100, then I'm a little too hot.


Rub it in why don't ya? I'd like to live in a warm climate, but since my daughter lives here, I'm staying up north. I may eventually buy something small down south for the winters. Prices are really good right now. I think they're giving condos away in Florida, which I don't like, but it isn't the worst place in the winter.
