    I agree that the snow is pretty and festive and I'd rather have a white Christmas than not. I just hate driving in it and driving WHILE it's a blizzard out.

    It's a love/hate relationship.

    Agreed! Several years ago when I was still working, they decided to send us home after we all got to work in a blizzard. My regular 7 minute drive took over 45 minutes, and the only way I could even tell if my car was still on the road (rural area), was to judge where I was by the telephone poles, since the road and farm fields just all became as one big white mass! Not fun.

    Please be careful driving back home!

    The Director just stopped by. There is no one in this library. He's gonna call the Powers That Be and see if we can go home early. *fingers crossed*

    I'm over in CT and awaiting the snow to start falling anytime....thanks for the warning and idea of what we are in for.

    We bought my mom tickets to see Kenny Rogers at Mohegan Sun...the concert is tonight and they are not cancelling it, so come HE!! or high snow banks we are going. I guess we will have to put in 4x4 and hope for the best.

    Agreed, please be careful everyone.

    (And I thank goodness I live in California. I am petrified to drive in the snow, and refuse to do so when we go to Tahoe. Even the smallest amount of snow scares me.)
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Okay Okay........I'll stop complaining about the heat down here.

    All I can say is ......YIKES.......you all have my sympathy. Please be careful. I have friends in Michigan and they all say it's just ridiculous there, and......they live there and are used to it!!!

    My BIL just got back from Ann Arbor yesterday. He lives in Flagler Beach, where it's almost like early summer, and, boy was he glad to get home. He said they ran off the road numerous times, got stuck, and could barely get out of there. I love Florida!!!!!!!!


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
