So now we know who to blame!

Well, tell him to knock it off already, because I want green grass!

Glad everyone else is doing okay but I worry about UTC...she is in the middle and thick of this storm and has probably really gotten a yardful.
Awwww Bee! How sweet to be worried about! :hugs Thanks for thinking of me. I thought I would check in to tell you all is well here. We have had many inches of snow,..actually we have lost count. Now it is above my knees in places and in some places it is to my hips due to drifting. We are shoveled out for about the fourth time and DH took our tractor out and dug out as many neighbors as he could. Everyone is fairing well but the kids,..still no school for them.We have managed to keep the electricity on too,..thank goodness! We are expecting more snow on Monday,..just a few inches we hope. I hope you all are doing well up there in the panhandle Bee,..I heard it was quite messy up that way. Stay safe and warm,...Keep it between the ditches,..or snowdrifts in this case! :gig

Are your kids as stir-crazy as mine? Cabin fever, big time! :p I think that is why he actually DID something he was supposed to do.....out of sheer boredom! :lol:

The snow drifts are crazy here and the wind has sculpted the snow into fantastic shapes.....simply lovely, although I cannot say that out loud around here. :rolleyes: You really couldn't tell we live in the mountains here with all the grumbling and moaning about the snow....what do they expect? :p

haven't seen any pics of the FL snow, but ATL got a pretty good heep of it... which is really bad because ATL drivers don't know what to do when it rains for more than an hour.

More snow! Talked to my niece in the next county and she has 4-5 ft. on the ground and scheduled to have at least another foot tonight.

I think everyone is kind of shell-shocked around here....no more runs on the grocery store. Everyone just quietly goes home and prepares for the next day of scraping, shoveling and driving in four wheel drive.

I can't mention it around here for fear of getting lynched, but each new snow is just as pretty as the last. I really like the feeling of driving home in hushed whiteness, no other cars on the road and the mountains veiled in snow showers. All the houses lit up and smoke falling from the chimneys...so cozy! Almost like a Kincaid painting.... then I get to my own front door and walk into warmth and light. Bliss! :love
