I am so sick of this weather. Now i have to cancel Polly's Appt for tomorrow. She was supposed to be seen every few days for the first few sessions. Why can't anything be easy?

Now we get Snowed in for another 2 days. The snow is WET and heavy and the plows cannot even push it. Forget shoveling it. But we do what we have to do for the dogs to have their potty path, and I called the plow guys to put us on the list. We usually plow out ourselves but the tractor is too small for this wet slop.

I already cleaned off the roof a bit with the roof rake, otherwise we get horrid icicles in the gutters. Last night's snow was just freakish. The flakes were the size of Quarters and yet, it was heavy and wet. we got 6 inches within an hour and a half. I'm gonna be so sore tomorrow.

I have to pick up the girls at day care in an hour, so i'll stop and get some Baked Lays and some Cake to keep me happy while i'm trapped in this house.

Just had to grumble about the weather.

Grumble away! I feel your pain. Thankfully, we were spared this last week of any big snows. But... it's only the end of Feb. so much more winter to go yet. ugh

Things like this always seem to occur when you need to go out most, yes? At least, that's usually my 'luck'. haha

I feel like the universe is out to foil my plans of getting Polly some Acupuncture.

He said up to 10" or more. Hopefully, it won't go too south so you won't see a drop.

Help, someone dig me out! So far it's like 2+ ft on the ground but then it also drifted. We are not plowed out. The plow guy said he'd wait until today b/c of the drifting. i guess he was right. My poor babies have to go potty in this, and altho Pixie will potty in the path we make, Polly thinks she has to go outside the path, which means climbing over 2 ft of snow and falling with each step, and being unstable to go potty. Poor girl. i wish she understood to go in the path..The path is so deep now, they even have a wind break.

At least i have baked Lays and Cake here.

No, I like White cake. We also have Chili from last night but it's a bit too spicy for me. I pray i'll be able to dig out by Monday's Acupuncture appt. Oy what a storm.

And it ain't over yet! Wink

Just spent the last 1/2 hr. snow blowing the drive, sidewalk and potty area. Probably for nothing as it's still snowing and blowing back in. ugh.

If the plow comes by the road, I'll be stuck when it's plowed back into the drive. double ugh. good exercise tho Wink

I know EXACTLY how you feel - shoveling the roof, loading the outside woodstove, shoveling the driveway only to have the snowplow go by & block you in... Tha is why I am SO happy to be living in Alabama, only guess what? - it is actually snowing today! What freakish weather! Twisted Evil
