Let it Snow!

Finally we are going to be snowed in, at least for a bit. :) I am getting all my chores done this morning so I can sit in front of the wood stove with a good book this afternoon.

Anyone else about to get happily snowed-in?

Snowin like crazy in MI

It's coming down at the rate of 1-2" an hour. The school called at 5:30 am and of course DS heard it and is wide awake. My nephew was dropped off an hour ago and we are hunkered down for the day as the DH took the SUV to office.

Everyone enjoy the storm - they are nice once in a while.

I think scrapbooking is in store for me this afternoon - or a movie!
 
YES!! I'm excited too! We're looking at a possible 12+ inches where I live. I love it!! It's a good excuse to finally start working on the 'thank you' cards from my wedding ;) Enjoy the snow day all!
 
ARGH. I'm depressed now. I live in Monmouth County, NJ. We will either get some mixed bag of cr@p or it'll be all rain. :rolleyes:
 
Listen, I've had snow for the last month:D:D in the Great White North but gone are the days of being able to enjoy an unexpected day off. I live 10mins from work so no excuse for not being able to get to work:(
 
This skier is HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D

We're supposed to get 4"-8" in my neck of the woods today and another 12" on Sunday...so Monday will be a ski day! :D

I also got new snow shoes, and have been having fun with those.
 
I'm so ready! I changed my gym & grocery shopping schedule so all I have to do today is manage to get home from work. :)

Sparrow, I'll be sitting in front of my fake wood stove. :p Snuggling w/my little dogs under my down blanket. :cool:
 
Snow day in Chicagoland. Kids are VERY excited. We had a 'wintry' mix all night long, snow and ice.
 
Not really looking forward to the foot of snow expected but got the woodstove going, got a good book and my son and DIL are coming over to put up and decorate the tree. Just getting a seat anywhere near the stove is an issue with 3 cats and 2 dogs they are already there on one big dog bed.

My kitties do the same thing! After breakfast they march to the pillow by the stove and take up residence. If it's not lit in a timely fashion Comet will come find us and meow her head off. :D

We're looking at 7-14 today. I work for our local school district and swear I love snow days more now than when I was a student. My oldest kids are home from college and I'm looking forward to being snowed in with them.
 
No snow here today, thankfully (I have 5 phone interviews to do with candidates for a teaching job here, and I don't want to have to reschedule them).

Tomorrow, it can snow all it want...heck it can snow for 3 days in a row and I don't care, because I don't have any oblgations for now.

(It just better not delay my getting my Chalean Extreme workouts!)
 
Happily snowed in here too! Can't see a thing outside, my concession #6 road does not exist. All three kids, DH, and Chester dog are stood down. Wood stove down stairs going and masonry soapstone upstairs fireplace is still radiating heat from last nights fire.

Hope to do some baking, happy snow day ,

Bri.
 
I'm going home. I'm watching cars on our main road from my office window & I've already seen 3 get stuck. I only live a mile from here, but it's uphill. :eek:

Have a safe & happy w/e little snowbirds! :)
 
We are snowed in. Shelton WA, (Puget Sound area, just South of Canada) but without 4 wheel drive you really can't go to far. Today will be a beautiful sunny 25-28 degrees. Tomorrow, late afternoon and all day Sunday, is a huge storm coming our way from the North and NW of us. High winds about 70 mph or more. Very low temperatures in the teens or 20's, freezing rain, sleet, branches breaking off, trees falling, losing electricity.

You most likely will feel the storm, coming your way sometime during the week. Get lots of books to read, blankets to keep you warm, if you have a generator, then use that as well, because it will be a duzy. Stock up on food you don't have to cook, make sure you have plenty of water on hand and candles for light. It's suppose to be that bad.

Be safe,

Janie

It's really coming down here in Western Michigan. We've been getting lots of snow for weeks, and this time it may be up to 2 feet! Thank goodness for our neighbor who plows our driveway for cheap, though I don't really plan on going anywhere (DH did go to work today). Enjoy the snow everyone!

Snow day here today in upstate New York. Loving it - very cozy. Packing for our Chrsitmas trip. DH had to go to work & 2 DS's are out on thepond ice skating.

Everyone enjoy.
 
Lots of snow here ('burbs of NYC). It's like a winter wonderland out there now. No school for the kids. It was pretty amusing seeing my puppy go out in it. He didn't know what to do so he leaped about a bit and then ate some of it.
