Well the big Salt delivery truck made it in and out of our drive....and he obviously made it down the storm cellar steps. Right this min. it isn't snowing, the sun is trying to make an appearance but if we get the predicted snow again tonight....lunch is very iffy.

Thank goodness for books or I'd have cabin fever too! Am reading Hotel at the Corner of Bitter and Sweet. It's a lot like listening to my dad talk "history".

Made a BananaCream Pie again...Mr.Alffe's favorite although he was torn because a good friend sent him a case of Graeter's ice cream in dry ice. You know it's good stuff when the first listed ingredient is cream.

weather is perfect here in the mid 70s - low 80s ... wonder if Barbo would enjoy watching this link to view these special critters during her cold winter ...
it is the park we go to all the time ... Blue Spring

Hi, gosh that is cold. I should never complain when it is 40 outside. I live in fla after living up north all my life. I was surprised to find out our winters do get down to freezing, but it rarely snows. I am near The pPort of Tampa. I don't think I could move up north again. I would be just like you wanting to stay inside! Stay warm, and I hope the winter there is not too bad. I don't miss it I have to say. take care, ginnie

Frrrrreeeezzzzing here..... I think we got about 5 inches of snow... I know this is nothing compared to some of you... but I'm a baby. I LOVE looking at the snow... just HATE the cold! It's 12F (-11C)

I don't have any appointments until the 9th of February... so we'll see how it goes.....sounds like hybernation is back in my future.

For those of you in the snow zone be safe... watch out for others.
For those of you in the warm zone... have fun and enjoy!!!

<----for all

I couldn't get through on the link you sent! All I got was "Pause" or "Shrink". I gave them my email address and only saw one picture - a body of water with trees overhanging. Too bad - I bet it was wonderful. Thanks for the thought - Im sick. Love, Barb

if it is a black screen it is because it is dark outside . You have to give email but that is to keep track of the views I think. it works for me . hugs and prayers for the room and readers is the kind of weather I am sending to everyone .
PEACE
Tina

I tried again and saw 3 pics this time! Thanks. Love, B.

soooo true. lol

Hi Affle, are you inviting every body over for some of that pie? sounds wonderful. Stay warm up there. It is nice where I live and I wish I could have all the members down for a vacation today. ginnie

OK, so there is something here I don't understand - why does a truck deliver salt? Is it salt for your driveway - to get rid of ice? And gosh, how much salt do they deliver that you just can't pick up a bag when you need it? Here in Canada we buy salt at the Gas Station and sometimes you see it at Walmart. I've used it to get rid of ice on the sidewalk. I have purchased one bag of salt in my whole life. OK, that's enough thinking about salt.

Our temp has gone from -10 celcius to +10 in a matter of a day - snow to rain... and snow is all melting... which is causing horrible flooding in some areas (not here at my place, tho).

You know the saying: when it rains, it pours!
