We got snow last night and the wind is strong, so we are getting drifting over the drive etc. I've been sick so my son is shoveling out the mailbox. So far, only snow and wind, and no ice. We are pretty prepared, but my husband's one sister is in the hospital also. Chicken eggs are freezing too. Thank goodness the kids stocked the porch with wood for me. I have not left my bed or sofa, but to check my e-mail once or twice. Brrr!

Kristina,
It's bad here, too. How awful for you to be not feeling well at the same time! Stay warm, drink some tea, and feel better soon, farmgirl!

I am hunkered down at home! 25-40 mph winds with another 12-15" of snow and below zero. Time to do some baking and crocheting.

Wow; y'all are strong women and you have my absolute respect. I can not imagine that kind of cold although I confess I have always wanted to do toss a cup of boiling water into the air and watch it turn to snow. Then I'd have to run right back inside where it was warm. I get cold just thinking about it! Stay warm and safe, if I could send you some west coast warmth I surely would.

..........let the screaming begin....
all it takes is a snowed in drive, a husband who can't get out of the drive to get to work, where he left his college books he needs for a test tonight, and not one family member who will come plow you out and you get - screaming, bickering and one big fat headache. Lord, please help us.
As sick as I am.....I am going out to shovel his stinkin' car out, and then the mail box.  There is only so much a sick person can take.

They have closed many of the roads and highways around here. DH stayed home today - so we're just taking it easy. Although, we will have to dig out at some point. We had a lot of lightening and thunder during the snowstorm yesterday evening and through the night. It was very cool... I've seen/heard it before but not this often.
Our Border Collie, Maggie, LOVES the snow and is a relentless Frisbee addict. She's ready to go even it there is a blizzard.

Kristina - love the pictures of your dogs. They look like they're just fine with all that snow - it gives them a whole new perspective on things... :o) We had to shovel our driveway too - ugh. We were cursing the broken snowblower... DH thinks it needs a new carburator (sp?) - wish he would have figured that out before today... Oh well, its done. Hope you're feeling better. Hang in there.

Thanks Lorraine. I'm still sick, and schools closed again today. We hired a guy to plow the remaining drive, and he was complaining about the drifts, saying he couldn't do it. Well, he did. I may just drive to the doctor now that I can get out of my drive. My ear hurts now.
The dogs do love the snow. Even our barn cats play in it like little kids do. So funny to watch them.
