Thanks Barry.  So far we are doing ok.  I did get food before the storm.  But, it is going to stay frozen for a week. 

I'm running out of cigs.  I may have to fire up the car and make a trek to the store to get some and get some more food.  The store is a good hundred yards away, so it will be a treacherous drive for the vital supplies. 

We are going to pack supplies for the trip tonight and head out tomorrow.  We'll pack food for a couple days and a transistor radio just in case we run off the road and are not found for days. 

Keep us in your thoughts.
Brian and Dianan

Linda, you are experiencing hypothermia and talking crazy talk. Stay home, do not venture out in that inch of snow, it will go away. Good time toi quit smoking, sorry, I won't go there.LOL

Seriously. though, there are hundreds of thousands without power right now due to storms, my thoughts out to all of you.

We have hydro for now, but!!!!!!!! Shocked

I hope you know that.  We're jest having a liittle fun is all.  Besides Brian started this.  it's all his fault.

Is Portand anything like Seattle when it comes to snow?  When we visited out there I always assumed that they got tons of snow and life went on.  But it was explained to me that they got barely any snow and the roads were not built to withstand the slipperyness of the wet stuff and they had no plows and if it snowed at all everything shut down big time.  If so I feel for you big time.

We are suppose to get 4-6 inches tomorrow from noon to midnight.  This is on top of the 10 inches we got last monday.  It is suppose to snow off and on all week here.  I hope you stay dry.

No.  Seattle gets lots of rain.   Eastern side of Washinton gets all the snow.  Unless of course you are where Mastiff lives up in the mountains.  When I lived in Spokane she used to laugh at me.  A lot.

That's right!!  I woke up and it was snowing, and it snowed until nearly dinner time.  

I'm thinking of you with a shovel in one hand and a leaf blower in the other…

There is almost 2 inches of snow, with drifts up to 3 inches.  

We call that a little bit a snow here…

The entire metro area is basically shut down.  There is no school tomorrow, everybody is completely socked in.  It could take days to dig out from all this mess.

I remember Georgia, they close the roads when it rains hard…

Keep us in your thoughts.  

Thinking of ya B$… Kiss



Keep er tween da ditches and ya all be fine...  Cheesy

OMG! Linda...be very careful out there...why, we could LOSE you completely in those snowdrifts!!!!!
Tomorrow, I'm going to do just what I did yesterday and today, get up, put my robe and slippers on.......
Yup-that's about it!

Brian, you and Dianan be very careful venturing out to Freddy's for supplies! Take your cell phone.call me if things get bad......I'll send youi a St Bernard, complete with flask!!!

Lighting a fire in the fireplace, so if we get snowed in, someone might see the smoke signals........

Cathi Cheesy


PS-As Linda said, this is soo not intended to denigrate our friends who are actually suffering this weather. Dennis is just now returning to normal, and I KNOW it could be much worse..we're truly just poking fun at ourselves..coz we don't know NUTHIN about surviving in this stuff.....and Mast.I know how to chain up and remove as well....call AAA!!

I hear that Kimberly.  I walked out in the driveway today, and the snow is halfway up the sole of my shoe!!!

I tied a rope from my door to my mailbox so i dont get disoriented and freeze to death.

Thank you Mel.   LOL


For anyone who's interested...here is what Pat's comment is all about.  I got a e-mail from Brew right after the story broke asking me if Jim and I were planning to go to our local KFC for dinner.  Apparently this dumb story went global.
