Well least we have a working furnace, a fireplace, roof over our head, and food in the pantry.. Now if I can only get off this compute long enough to actually get some quilting done we'd be good !! :thumbup:

I'm still waiting here in upstate NY for a good snow. I am so jealous!

It usually only takes me about 20 minutes to get home...it took me almost an hour. (I'm about 20 miles north of cjomomma).

We have a 4x4 dually and I was going about 35 - 45 most of the way on the parkway. Many many trucks/cars in the ditches and medians. I wasn't in a hurry and no one else really seemed to be either.

Our driveway has over 6" right now and still snowing. I have a circle drive (on corner lot) and took the dually through the whole drive to break the 12 - 18" drifts before they got hard. On the way back into the driveway, I wasn't sure I was going to be able to turn and thought I was going down the riprap hill... would not have been good!

Got back into the house and decided my chubby rear would just clean off the porch and watch the birdies (and QB updates)

Moonwork I'm glad you made it home safely. They are still trying to get kids home from school. School let out at 9:45 and it's 2:30 now.

Seems like the weather man is having a hard time predicting the weather this winter in KY, they call for a 1" we get 6", they call for 4" we get a dusting....lol.

You just got to wake up and see what you get and go from there.

I'm really really sorry CJ I have to fess up. Illinois sent it to you! We had the same surprise Sat.morning... But look on the bright side....a good day to stay in sewing :o}

It certainly is an unusual weather cycle we are in - first glance at your pictures you would think they were pictures taken here in Iowa! Will all this unusual snow make for flooding this spring or do you normally get an equivalent amount of moisture in rain?
