I've shoveled the walk twice and you'd never know it....filled the bird feeders twice and am making toast for them as we "speak". Mr.Alffe called me from the toll road and said it was treacherous driving and I shouldn't even think about it and did I need any supplies cause he thinks we'll be in for several days.

It is absolutely beautiful out there...and I'm drinking from my saucer...

How's by you?????

Snow has let up and is now a light snowfall... we are still under a winter storm warning until tonight as the storm appears to be wrapping around and coming back at us from the northwest.

We have about 6 inches of snow... it began falling here sometime after 2 o'clock this morning.

Please stay safe.... I saw it took an acquaintance of mine 80 minutes to travel about 25 miles this morning...

Stay warm...

Well I am just purely an idiot as I drove in to work today after shoveling out my car. Withe the whiteouts, couldn't see where I was going except for the telephone poles along the road and ran right into a drift across the road. LOL! Thankfully I was going REALLY slow..

And nobody is here in the office but me, for good grief. Stay home Ms. Alffe! Lots of wind and snow!

I canceled my Hospice visit for tomorrow. I feel bad about it but I have a little Saturn and only those with 4-wheel drive vehicles should be out. They aren't talking about when the snow will stop.

You guys PLEASE stay in.... I dont want you to experience what we did on Christmas Eve..... being stuck on the highway is no fun.

Yes stay safe, stay home unless it is a dire need you have to go driving.

And for Florida it too is very cold and they say we are to get sleet and maybe snow flurries... which I know is nothing to all of yous.. but us Floridians ..we are not used to it . lots of kids dont even have the right kind of coat and some schools have no heat... so we too are having our share of this horrible winter weather.
I grew up in the north and snow but after 25 yrs here .. I am NOT ready for it being so cold for so long... and snow flurries to boot. that never happens!!!
Warm and safe is how I want my family here to be.!!

My fellow Iowans...do not leave your homes! Open roads are 100% whiteout and it's FREEZING out there!

[FeelinGoofy]

and no more wading in the thigh high snow doody!! LOL {{{HUGS}}}

I heard from a Florida friend yesterday and she was in shock - actually had to scrape her windshield before she went to work yesterday!

[Alffe]

Lots of tracks in the snow...can't tell if the deer are back..sending Mr.Alffe out to look at them. *grin

Having to scrape your windshield while living in Florida would be a shock!

I cannot believe the weatherman...lake effect snow will bring 6 to 8 more inches tonight and tomorrow and by Wed. it will be 40!!! ???
