I'm hanging in there. We're right in the middle of our busy season here at work so I'm just trying to muddle my way through it.

How are you?

Aaaaah yes... busy season! Good luck, hun.

I'm all right, thanks. Just going about the day-to-day stuff, really, but somehow it seems busier than normal... well, and doing a bit of plotting and scheming :twisted: ... but that's not particularly unusual for me either! ;)

I am so tired of shoveling lol - and the stores here are out of everything. I needed milk for Elise the other night and Tab said she almost came to blows with some lady over it. There was no milk, no yogurt, bread and bagels were bare, juice was almost gone - insane. Im just hoping that with the roads finally being cleared today the supply trucks can get through because I am in desperate need of groceries

I'm sorry moqueen. That sucks. Does there look to be any sort of reprieve from this storm? *sends sunshine from the desert*

Blaze, whatcha schemin?

Hello Purkle lovelies. Happy Valentine's Day. This one might just be the best one I've had in pretty much forever, emphasis on MIGHT.

We only got about 6-7 inches of snow, but as usual people are like, what is this white stuff on the ground and how do we drive in it? Hey, this isn't Hawaii, people. C'mon now.

I think its pretty much over. And this second one wasnt nearly as bad as the one on Friday/early Saturday that dumped 2 and a half feet on us. But still, they were still trying to clean that one up when we get hammered again.

7 inches fruity? I wish thats all we had, I can send some to you though!! And thanks for the rays Juru *dons her shades and basks in the sunny goodness*

Yep, that's pretty much all we got. I was laughing at the news when they showed the Penn DOT trucks. I was like, what exactly do they do with all of that salt? We don't see hardly any of it here, that's for sure.

How have you been otherwise, Jess? I've missed you.

I want today to be over with and it to be Friday already so I can start enjoying my 3 day weekend.

Can't tell ya yet... 'cuz like... then it wouldn't be scheming! ... but it will be interesting if I can pull it off!! :XP

Good luck to everyone dealing with snow and shoveling!

Don't forget that if you require permits to pull off your scheme that they have to be signed in triplicate and the marigold colored copies go to accounting.

LOL. If I pull this scheme off, there will be paperwork involved... and probably in triplicate too! :shock:

Awesome. I have a nifty self inking date stamp if you need it for those forms.

Paperwork! Bleh.

I hope you all dig out ok. Sia said they had thunder snow yesterday. I told her she could keep that in philly.

Or send some it over to California. I wouldn't mind watching the people freak out here. Get me some popcorn and watch their heads explode when the white stuff started falling. :lol:

Same happens out here in AZ. Everyone stops to watch that white stuff fall out of the sky. I just stay inside. I hate snow.

Juru, hate is such a strong word, I think intensely dislike would be more appropriate.

Otherwise Im good aprifruity :heart: Ive missed you too!!

Jess, you've been missed for quite awhile. Am I going to have to fly out there and hunt you down to get some quality time with you? Cause I'll do it!

Hehe- we had thunder snow indeed :XD


The 2nd storm was worse than the first for me - when we went out to shovel the snow was up to my knees :gonk:

Actually- let me share - I love photos :p

during

and after


This is my car (I drove it the day before it snowed) and the lump towards the back is my friends car that has not been moved.

My steps- they are gone - and those bushes are usually over 6 feet tall

It's a sweet winter wonderland, Sia. >.<

Yeah - I'm totally cool with it - except that I had to help shovel the driveway - my car still hasn't been cleared - we'll have to do that today - but after 3 hours last night we were all exhausted

Rue took some pictures on Saturday - I will have her post them when she gets home. They are on her Facebook account if anyone wants to hop on over there and take a peek

Snow and I don't mix. It's pretty to look at when it is fresh and untainted by footprints and dirt and whatever else but I don't' like to be in it.

I love the snow! But not if I have to live in it.

Everyone loves what they don't have to live in :lol:
