Well this is great

The weather folks were right. We're getting socked right now with a snowstorm.
Word just came that they are closing schools 2 hours early. Which is nice for working parents who both have commitments this afternoon.
Carry on. I'll be with you from my home base in no time.

That sucks. We've been getting pelted here this week too, but nothing to that extent. Laura got home from work last night right before whiteout conditions snarled I-15, which was nice. I'm so sick of winter I could puke.   |

Ditto. I think I have one more pt. and then I'm out of here. LOL Great Freudian line from Karen. (email) I told her school was closing, and I was headed home early. Do we need anything? She said "No. I went out to Costco over lunch and picked up mike and water. |

I'm back.
spacey, I'm with you. When March rolls around I am getting into full on spring mode. Not the time for a 1 1/2 feet of snow.

Milk, mike, it's all good. Unless of course she actually picked up another "Mike" and you're in for quite a surprise when you get home.  |

Well, someone was bound to be right.  I have seen estimates of 12-24". And I'm too old to shovel. I have power assisted help now.  |

Considering we are already 12+", I think we're going to be closer to the higher end estimates. lol We had power assisted help, but it doesn't work right now. lol So now Kev and I are the power assisted help for our dad.  It's almost time for take 5. |
