@geezerette 

My snow has stopped   here and we have maybe 2 inches, no ice with it...and it is very light to sweep off steps,sidewalk,etc.

 

Wow!  Sorry that you are getting so much more snow  and i know that if you do step outside  you will be very careful.....especially i fyou need to shovel it later.😏

 

Accidents sometimes on highways happen because people forget how to drive safety in it.

Like i'm a driver...and i'm not! 

But  i have listened to so many drivers over many,many years   talk about it..

Wishing safety and warmth for all my southern friends.  Snow is certainly a big problem in areas that never get it.  It is scary to drive in, and the best advice is to stay home.

 

We in some states are used to it, but the biggest thing we fear is ice.  Bluebird is good in the snow,  but must stay home in the ice.  Hope no one has lost power.  Wish your Connecticut

hotel was closer.  So bundle up, watch the Telly if you have power.  

We are hoping for some snow where we live - our summers have been warmer and we are deficient in rainfall.  So a decent snow on a weekend would be welcome with some of us.  

We sit here watching the horror show in California.  Between being so dry, and with the Santa Ana winds (some as high as 100 mph), it was a disaster waiting to happen.  Thankfully, the wind it seems has calmed down so that planes are safe to fly to drop water on fires.  I hope and pray for all those who have lost everything, as we always do for anyone everywhere.  One tragedy after another in our country this year, it seems.

@Yahooey @cowboy sam @geezerette @PamfromCT : Woke up to 26 outside. I need to get up. 

DD and family to visit on Saturday for about 5 hours. Including DH and I will be 7.

I am almost finished setting everything up in the family room. I have the 8 foot table ready. The grandkids will use two tv tables located near plug ins to charge their various electronics.

I have the coffee bar stocked, fridge filled with favorite sodas. Favorite snacks ordered and all in individual bags. Everything will be set up for self - serve. Using vinyl fitted table cloths , paper plates , cups etc.

  We live 2 minutes from Chick-fil-A their favorite.Food will be picked up and served at home.Told DD no reason to order something to drink ( easier to transport food and save some money).   I need to make a lot of ice. Cleaning ladies scheduled for Tuesday. I have decided to put paper towels in both bathrooms to make it easier for hand washing and quicker clean up. 

Dining table pushed under window with exercise mat still on floor: with special blanket for Grand dog Duke. Thinking this better place for dog bowls for food and water . Plus next to back door : back yard for Duke.

@SouthernBee 

Girl, you should get a Job as a party planner.  In all your spare time (just a joke).  You never forget a thing, as I am sure Duke will appreciate.  Have a great time!  Unreal the weather in the southern part of our country!  Too bad I live so far away, as a have plenty of warm coats and tons of hats and scarves!

And my Bluebird, who is also used to bad weather driving.

 

Lubs ha!

 

@cowboy sam 

I share your attitude about the news.  I only watch when I feel I have to.  I do like to watch documentaries, some movies, and such.  Cartoons may be next!

 

Lubs ya!

@PamfromCT : Laughing: Me retired. Just trying to make everything easier for me. 

I found a good deal on Amazon for " to go coffee cups" . Ordered them and hoping to prevent any spills from drinking coffee and hot chocolate. DH ex-wife drinks coffee 24/7  and very  messy and prefers pots of coffee: Told DH he will be making the pots of coffee: really for one day : use the kcups.

DD taking care of her mother but in process of trying to put her in nursing home: only 61 but  will not take her medication and a real soap opera. I will be polite but on opposite side of the room but I will set next to DH when we eat and DD will be on DH left side. My cell phone will be in my skirt pocket for any emergency call if necessary. I was hoping DD and family would make the visit after putting her mother in nursing home.

Grand son doing a lot better and apparently accepts help from his moms fiance. He is enrolled on line taking GED classes and taking welding  classes.  Visit should be interesting.
