Ya happy now?! :mad: Snowed all night, all day today and it's still snowing! Aaaaaaaaaaargh! I have a gravel driveway and most won't plow a gravel driveway. There's at least a foot w/more piled up at the bottom due to the snow plow which woke me up at 5:00 AM. Since I didn't get to sleep until 4:30 AM, I just loved that! Not! So, ok. Who wants to send me donations to buy me a new house in Hawaii? ;) :p

Medusa, I can use a few donations like that, too! Your Ohio snow frequently becomes Pittsburgh snow and I'm usually the lucky guy that has to go out and shovel it!

That's what I heard.

Cleveland is getting slammed, however here in Columbus, we aren't. We always get the ice/rain/wintry mix instead. It sucks. :(

Hopefully this clears up/lightens up by the weekend so Mike can come down and visit.

I don't think we have had as much snow as you have had, Mary. What part of Ohio do you live in? I'm in south central Ohio and for so long the snow seemed to keep missing us. I was longing for a good snowfall. We finally got it not too long ago and now it keeps coming. Nothing major and like Rachel said mostly a mixture of rain, snow, sleet, ice. Now like you I am sick of it. I'm ready for my yard to be green again and to get my backyard nice and dry and as green as it can be. My pups have been having a blast in it but they now have my backyard a huge mess.

I've had enough!

I don't want to rub it in, but I just tell ya'll how glad I am to be in So. Cal. this week. :D :p What are the chances it will all melt before I arrive 3:30pm back in love Detroit, Michigan on Thursday (And Toledo Ohio, shortly after that)?

I am so glad I parked on-site in covered parking!!!

What part of Ohio do you live in?
I live equidistant to Akron and Canton. It's times like this when I question why I moved back here from Arizona.

I'm not happy, ha ha - I heard there's another storm coming by the weekend to hit Northern Ohio.. and I'm like, really hoping that Mike will be able to come down.. I'm being selfish.. I guess. I haven't seen him in 2 weeks. =( I can't wait for SPRING to be here so no more of this snow crap.

Ah, I didn't mean quite that much money! :o I love snow but am not thrilled with the predicted total of 10-12". I'm getting too old for this shoveling! I do however love playing with the dogs in it. :cool: btw, I'd say we have 6-7" here right now.

Lots of snow here on the west side of Cleveland, so beautiful, so peaceful, so breathtaking. I love the snow. Bring it on.

I can see how it would be afwul with a gravel driveway. Sorry about that. Summer will be here before you know it.

Yes, I've been planning on putting in a cement drive since I bought his house 3 years ago but I always end up doing some other major renovation on the inside of the house instead. I'm currently waiting for an estimate to gut and remodel my master bath. In the winter I like to do the interior of the house but it's times like this that I regret that decision. Two years ago I had a new brick walkway and patio installed and new landscaping done and I'm glad I did but I should've done the driveway, too. Summer can't come soon enough for me.

Here I am Annette! *waves frantically* Sorry I was stuck in a snow drift and was loving every second if it! LOL! :p

Ahhh yes... THIS is why I love living in Ohio!! THE SNOW!! :D
OMG.. I am happy as can be! :D :D

I have about 6 inches on the ground at home and I'm waiting for the rest! :p

I took pictures of the pups yesterday when I came home from work, I'll post them today in Dog General!
They're just as happy about the snow as I am!

I also have a gravel drive way and a 4 wheel drive blazer. So all I do is drive up and down the drive packing it all down! Unless my nice neighbor comes over again with his huge tractor and plows it again like he has a few times this year.

:( *sigh* I wish I was still there in NW Ohio for all this snow - Star & Jack would LOVE it! Poor huskies, they've been keeping all paws crossed all winter for snow, & all we've had here is about 3 snowfalls with only a couple inches each time. Enjoy it while it lasts, you lucky Ohioans!

Finally got my driveway plowed and it's snowing really hard again. Sure hope I don't have to get the driveway done twice.

I had a 4 wheel drive Blazer before I bought my new car. I'm wishing I had it now, that's for sure.
