Saw many of the events LIVE today and there was quite a bit of action and drama. There was a brand new Luge relay event but it looks like they aren't going to replay that tonight.

Men's figure skating is setting up to be quite the final tomorrow. Won't say any more.

Hi everyone , I guess I should ask where is everyone tonight? I am wondering if the storm on the east coast has everyone out shoveling snow. We really did not get any thing out of this except a few flurries. We will probably get more this weekend .

Busy with dinner, laundry, etc. Hope I made it in time for some ice skating. And some men's slopestyle . . . I guess that is what the women were doing the other night and landing and skiing the last part downhill backwards.

we got 16 inches, had a lull in the snow, then it started to sleet, now it is back to all snow with an additional 2 inches more so far. all the shoveling that we did and we will have to do more in the morning. it is a very heavy snow also.

it is too bad the way that the mens figure skating had to begin......

Good evening everyone.....thought I better come by and say hi......had a very busy day today, and tonight I am really tired. In between getting my car all cleared from the snow and getting my grocery shopping done, I thought it might be best for me to take it easy tonight. Have been watching the Olympics. Did watch some of it off and on during the day today.....and knew about the Purchenko(?) incident.......that was so sad. I had tears in my eyes when he said he just couldn't do it.

Anyone catch USA skater Jason? He did good!

hi showme.....glad you got a lot done today and hope you are feeling well. it was sad to see him not be able to compete, especially since you absolutely know that this was his last olympics .

Hi cater......the storm is not my excuse.......I'm tired tonight.

When I was on my way home from the grocery store, was listening to the news and they were saying that after midnight we could expect something to start coming down......anywhere from1, 2, to 3" of whatever.....could be a mixture, or could only be ice...... Geeesssshhhh,,,,,and I just got my car cleaned off and out today for the first time since almost a week ago.

Understand kitty lost her power late last night......and doesn't know when she will get it back. I know she has plenty of blankets, etc., but when it is cold at night, not much to get you warm. Thankfully she can use her stove to heat food. From what the reports are for that part of the country, it is supposed to be nice and warm by the weekend. So, hope she will make it till then.

Heck, we are supposed to be up to 62 here on Tuesday. That will be wonderful......

16 inches!!!! then Sleet! Holy mackeral! Keep an eye on your roof if possible. That much snow with sleet on top as you said is very heavy. If you have a one story it might be helpful to rake it off!

I haven't been watching tonight. The girls are watching some of their shows. I miss you guys posting about it more than the actual events!

Qwackertoo — Fri, 14 Feb 2014 05:36:38 GMT

Well, I'm calling it quits early and going to watch on my tv in the bedroom and turn on the fireplace console . . . kinda chilly tonight.

Enjoy! See y'all tomorrow night!

Had a hard time watching and listening to him earlier today, and even worse when we heard it again tonight. Well, he went out knowing he tried his dead level best to want to do it when he knew he couldn't.......Guess their bodies can only take so much. Did you see his surgery scars?

What was with that men's slope style ... The Swede in the 4x pants falling off of him? He not only looked like an idiot, it was messing up his tricks. I'd take points off just for the pants being a distraction.
