It was BEAUTIFUL here yesterday too! It got up to about 5 degrees (41 F) and everything was melting! Unfortunately, we drove home around 7 pm when everything was freezing again! There were at least 6 cars freshly in the ditch in our 20 minute drive. One truck passed us, and not even 5 minutes later, we passed him, spun out in a ditch. It was GLARE ice! The ride to work this morning was really icy too, and most of the vehicles were still sitting abandoned in the ditches!

Like I said before, it's usually better if it just STAYS cold!!! The melting temperatures are nice for the time, but it makes things so much worse later

We are under a winter snowstorm watch. Monday evening a major storm is predicted for us with ice and upwards of 10 inches. Mom doesn't want to be stuck in a hospital alone so it looks like I'm going to have plenty of time on the computer...I'll be staying with her if we get the storm. Also...IF something were to happen to her....I wouldn't want her to be alone.

We have a windchill warning in effect today. It's flippin cold out there! The windchill right now is -44 degrees Celsius, and exposed skin will be frostbitten within 10 minutes. It's definitely an inside day! I kind of feel sorry for my brother, who works outside, but when he makes tons of money and buys nice things, I will just remember days like today

We're getting snow, snow, and more snow!!!! I'm not sure how much we have but it's enough that Jazzi and Reuger can't go out. I'm going to have to figure out how to let them go potty.......I guess in the garage. It's also blowing so we're going to have some good sized drifts when this is all done. Glen has one of the tractors up here by the house in case one of the kids or someone needs to go somewhere!!!

The sleet hitting the hospital window is loud!!!! Frankfort was just on the news and they said their were white-out conditions because of the sleet and that there was 3 inches of it on the ground so far.....yuk!

Colleges and Universities don't usually cancel classes around her but all of them her Laf. and Indy are.


Where in the heck is spring?

electricity has gone off 2X now, came right back on, lets hope it stays on. It's ugly out there. Hope you are staying put there at the hospital.
