    The weather channel says blizzard conditons this weekend for you all. But I say I actually envy you as well. Wish I could just sit and watch out a window that looks upon a busy street or maybe downtown shopping, and watch everyone as the maneuver thru it. I used to love to watch the snow and people and traffic!! Sure miss that! And sip on a warm drink!!

    God Bless the Truck Drivers! They are near and dear to my heart. They have a job I would never want to do.

    That's exactly what I'm going to be doing ... sitting at the window with a cup of hot chocolate watching the snow! I'm so much more relaxed about snowstorms now that I'm retired and don't have to worry about getting out in it. :)

    Me too!! Perfect weekend to sew or bake. Sometimes we all need down time and this is the perfect time for it. Sometimes I look forward to these storms.

    I love to watch the snow fall. We are being forecast for snow tomorrow night and Sunday. I hope I get my grandson before it starts.
