Safe travel to Christie, and may she come safely home again!!

Taking the dogs out is driving me NUTS. I actually shoveled a path and patch in the yard for Lady but she is so picky. She doesn't want to use the same spot more than once, and I haven't got the physical capability to shovel anything more. We finally have a pretty even path trampled from the front to the back, and I managed to kick the snow out of a pretty big patch in the back yard too, but of course--she's already used it.

So we go back and forth, back and forth, back and forth in the bone-chilling cold, me all the time worrying about her back leg--and half the time we come back in without her having gone. Aaaaarrrrrgggghhh.

Then yanno, when she finally does deign to go, weird things happen... like Trooper gooses her with a snowy nose while she's peeing. *buries face in hands*

Now that we have the path trampled out, it would actually be okay if it stayed cold and cloudy... but no. The sun's supposed to come out tomorrow, which will melt areas of the snow, and give us big patches of ice. :bolt:

Ohhh sheesh, there goes my neighbor again. Yanno where he got his truck stuck? In MY driveway. He managed to get pulled straight out of the driveway by about two feet last time. I'm glad he's gone now, but he left behind some nasty tracks that Gryph will have to walk through on his way home from work tonight.

Maybe getting so badly stuck will teach the kid to stop using our driveway. He does have his own, after all.

So Cath is learning a huge lesson about Winter, and what serious inconvenience does to her temper. Say hello to Crabby Girl. *sheepish look*

I didn't realize that bananas were on the list of groceries that people ran to the store to buy just before it snowed here! I still don't completely understand the milk, eggs, & bread thing... but bananas? :wtf: :bananasplit:

So we get another round of ice/snow late Sunday night/early Monday morning. I was prepared and had plenty of groceries, but there's something about knowing I can't just hop in the truck and go to the store if I want something that makes me want everything that I don't have! Even if I have 100 different food options in the house, I'm gonna want the things that I don't have! :overreaction: :cheesy:

Finally around 10pm Monday night (less than 24 hours being iced/snowed in) I put on my coat, hat, gloves, and hiking boots and take off walking! :downhillski: The Kroger isn't that far from my house, but the foot of really wet snow made for a fun hike! I get to the store and they are completely out of bananas! I've never seen them be completely out of bananas! They usually have a HUGE stand of bananas! And they even had milk, eggs, and bread left! I ended up with three bags of other stuff, but no bananas! :annoyed: :cookielove:

so as i was driving through huge puddles today I kept thinking ... damn if these were only snow drifts!

certain aspects of it are so lovely-

misted ghostly swirls and dervishes on the lane .

snow-twisters alive in silent fields .

Having not had a really good snow in many years, I was very excited about it. The first time... this is round three or four now and I am pretty much OVER IT!

We haven't lost power yet this week and for that I am beyond grateful. The storm that was supposed to come through here yesterday by passed us, staying a tad south. Today we have winds from hell!

The girl got some snow up in Richmond and I am hoping it clears up before I drive up to see her this weekend. We have plans to go out dammit!

Hope everyone is staying warm!

Sends nanners to Niceguy! that does suck man! LOL
