Our city put out a "Winter Alert" last night. Expecting 8-12" of snow today. Snowing and blowing as I post watching from our beautiful all glass 4- season patio room.

 

Now that my wife is now retired, we don't get too concerned about getting snowed in for awhile. Sure makes life easier for us now. Beautiful scene to watch the birds, mostly crows right now. But at some point comes the bad part of having lots of property. I still a bit stiff from the shoveling last Thursdays 10"+ of snow.

 

Weather like this is very scenic to watch from my lounge chair and our felines seem to like to get close and lay down by the windows or the floor length glass doors.

 

Just a topic for me to ramble!

2-4" predicted here in Wisconsin today.  I also enjoy sitting by the fire and watching it fall.  My husband will feel differently when we need to clear the driveway and walks.

John, with all your health issues what the heck are doing shoveling your snow...isn't there someone....or some company...that you could pay to do it for you.....

 

Why take the chance something could happen to you....and your back in the hospital or worse...who could take care of you...who would take care of your wife, Cindy....who isn't in good health either....

 

Please take care of yourself...

Here in Ohio, we have barely seen a flake drift from the sky this season yet. Up near the lake they have had a little, but none of the state has seen anything near normal.

 

And I'm not complaining about that one bit!

Here in Chicago we got a light dusting of snow & then came the rain, heavy & high winds, so freezing is a problem

Hope all are warm & safe

Stay Safe & Warm. Hopefully this mess will miss you. We were suppose to get 1" ice on power lines, lose power, more rain, sleet & 6-8" snow. We got rain, sleet & some snow but nothing like what they were saying we were going to get. Lots of people in the state without power. We are lucky again as our power is still on. It's just going to take a while to melt with the cold temps we will have.

I have a rare day off today and am loving watching it snow and blow from inside instead of my usual outside driving around in it.
