Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Well for once, the weatherman was not lying when they said the snow will be coming down. Right now, we’re still getting snowed upon, and it looks like we’ve gotten about 3 to 4 inches so far. It doesn’t look like it’s gonna be stopping anytime soon either. It also looks like they’re closing some roads (not here) in the area. That’s some crazy driving. Hopefully DOT is Really working hard, I’m sure they are, but oddly enough, our street (a very busy street) has hardly been plowed. Actually I might have heard a truck go by just recently.

I’ve heard this storm is supposed to continue until tonight, and I believe it ends sometime tomorrow morning. This is indeed crazy. I told my parents when they moved here that it never snows! Of course, I had to made a liar of! Thanks mother nature!

If I was in the mood to play in the snow, it would be great! And poor Meesh, she’s at work right now! She has to drive back in this horrible mess!

In the meadow we can build a snowman…

1118325_27613804So we finally got our first snow this weekend. I know there were a few of our friends that were pretty happy to see that. I’d have to say that I’m not quite as excited. But that’s ok, because I’m not going out in it.

With the snow, of course comes the cold weather. This week I think we’re supposed to be breaking some records or something. I don’t know about you but I’m not too keen on breaking any records for temperatures. Especially when they’re on the cold side. I believe the high was supposed to be 31 today. Of course, we’ve already went higher than that so that’s ok. Maybe they were talking about record lows. Thank you but no thank you.

Well, because I can’t leave things well alone, I’ve been farting around with the sidebar widgets and eventually added the Poll module back in. As you can see, the current poll is pretty standard, asking if you prefer paper or plastic.

Other than that, nothing exciting is going on here. I’m slowly recovering from the surgery, and doing pretty well. I have to admit that the hydromorphone prescribed to me helped a lot. But now, I’m out.
