It's been several years since significant snow has fallen here. The meteorologists have been excitedly hyping this one up for almost a week...what type of precipitation would the area get? How much? When would it start? Social media was full of memes
Hubby Tony and I went to church last night. The streets department was asking people to stay off the roads I had absolutely no reason to leave the house so I did what they said. I slept in, lingered over the newspaper after breakfast, and spent a lot of time reading. Pimento the Foster Cat was annoyed that he got breakfast late, but later in the day was thrilled to have two people around the house to cuddle with.
Mid-afternoon the precipitation temporarily stopped. Although I didn't go outside to verify, it looked like there was about four inches on the ground. The forecasters say that things will start up again, dump a couple more inches, then leave the area. A plow went down our street a couple of times, but so far the condo sidewalks haven't been shoveled. I have nowhere to go, and as all of tomorrow's commitments have been cancelled I plan on enjoying another snow day.

Stay put; stay safe. It's stunning in Olathe. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteWinter weather is always pretty, if you're not out in it.

ReplyDeletecold... snowy... windy and lots of accidents! Staying in and reading!!
ReplyDeleteI've alternated between 'sitting down' things (like reading) and 'active' things (like straightening).
DeleteIt makes sense to stay indoors in the warmth and safety - enjoy your snow day!
ReplyDeleteIt's turning into snow days (as in two, and maybe more).
DeleteSince you don't have a house anymore, do you want to come over and help shovel my driveway? You know, just to remember what you're missing? 😁
ReplyDeleteIt's 3:30 pm. The street is clear, but still waiting for someone to come shovel the driveway (an incline up to the street). Starting to get stir crazy.
DeleteI tripped on a snowflake the other day.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
That takes real talent :-)
Deleteit is 22 degrees here in East Texas, which means we are never prepared for these kind of temps. At the store, all the Milk was gone...none to be purchased. Stay warm and cozy...hope you do have a good read and can just relax through this Winter storm.
ReplyDeleteThe grocery store we went in on Saturday night had weird things gone; plenty of milk and bread but no onions or potatoes in the bins.
DeleteYes, you poor guys are getting hammered right now! Staying home with Pimento is wise.
ReplyDeleteI was looking forward to getting back to real life after the holidays, but Mother Nature had other plans.
DeleteBefore a snow storm our supermarkets are cleaned out of staples and sometimes we hardly got snow. Now in Florida I only watch the weather forecasts on TV but don't have to worry about snow Love all your funnies!!
