My kids are experiencing their first ever snow day. :laugh: Brandon has already learned he can make money by shoveling sidewalks and driveways. It started snowing around 11:00 last night and it's still coming down. :yikes:

It's really beautiful, but I'm afraid to get out in it. :(

Wave, I didn't get around to putting the sand bags in the trunk of my car. Of course, when you told me that it was 11:30 pm here and already snowing. :lol:

I haven't seen any snow since early January, 2001.

On December 31, 2000--less than 20 minutes before midnight--snow started to fall. I thought of it as "20th century snow," because it fell literally within the last 20 minutes of 2000--officially, the last year of the 20th century.

Oh Jeff, I remember that. It snowed in Louisiana that day too, but disappeared as soon as it hit the ground. LOL

I got out of school at 10:30 this morning, because of the snow! It's still snowing hard and it's sticking to the ground. :) Hopefully I won't have school tomorrow! :p

We only recieved one inch of snow and they closed the schools down for two days.
The kids enjoyed their first day off but now they are bored stiff.

I hated snow days when I was a kid.. I loved school :eek:

For once...I actually want a snow day. I want a day this week when I can just talk to Teddie for hours because I feel very sad right now and I also miss him. :cry:

No feet! I think about 5 or 6 inches. I don't even want to think about getting more snow than that. :yikes:

<----------so thankful doesn't have to deal with snow!


It has been colder today than normal though. The high was only in the 40's most of the day.

Whiners. :p :lol:

We were only supposed to get an inch or two, but we got 4 or 5. Highway crews were in shock, and had to get up at 1:30 a.m. to plow! Poor ol' sots!!

Think about all those poor people who can't even get outside to shovel their walks, and count your blessings! If I were Shei, I would tsk y'all!! :p :lol:

We didn't get much....a little fluff on the ground...easy to push right outta the way in no time. But that better be the worst of it! :hammer::lol:

But I look it at this way....I'd rather the snow than high humidity or tornados :vibrator::lol::p Snow and a rare hurricane is about all we have to deal with up here :)

I guess the snow everyone on the east coasr finally reached me, but were only supposed to get 2-4 inches, nothing will be cancelled.

It's in the high 40's and been raining last night and today. I haven't even seen snow in nearly ten years since I moved from Chicago in '93, can't say I miss it much though. :D

That is quite a bit for your area isn't it? :) I agree that's enough snow for me too. :lol:
