Thursday!


Same old, same old; trapped indoors again by the latest blizzard! This has broken all records for the snowiest Winter on record. At least the sun is shining today and it's warming up a bit: -2 (29 F). It's melting a little. I have icicles longer than my arm hanging from the eaves; can't get outside to take a proper picture. No mail, papers or buses, and of course no grocery delivery. When will it end?

Pic, fervently hope this will be the last one I have to take!!

Re: Thursday!


Blimey Eileen, that's deep snow.
Sunny but cold here today. Been out to a friends for coffee and out to the Chinese buffet tonight so a good day for me.
Hope you're feeling ok Karen and getting plenty of rest.

Re: Thursday!


Oh goodness, that must be getting to you.
Drinkin my coffee preparin for another day at the hospital. Hopefully we should have the latest results of tests so K can make the informed decision of whether he wants to go through painful surgeries or come home to live out his days peacefully (which he's actually considering). I hope he wants to fight or by some miracle the doctors and him can come to some kind of compromise. With all the pain he's gone through I don't blame him for considering it and we need to respect his wishes but wow the thought of making that kind of decision is quite surreal.

Re: Thursday!


Goodness Eileen - any more snow and those railings will disappear - I've certainly never seen snow as deep as that! My MIL tells a story of being snowed in in Norfolk just after the war - they had to dig their way out of their house. Can't find the year yet.

Sorry to hear your news Tink - I hope G gets the strength from somewhere to make the best decision for you both. Safe journey wishes for you.

Edited to say: the year was 1947.

Re: Thursday!


DM - that is some depth of snow - hope it gets no worse.

Tink - I hope you the news for K is positive and there is an outcome both of you are content with. Hope the storm comes to nothing.

Having a housework night tonight. Going to do all the cupboard tops in kitchen and clean out the insides. Then we'll see what time it is!

Re: Thursday!


Tink, hope you have a safe drive, and that K will come to a decision that you both can accept; what a horrible choice ... Kazz, are you taking it easy today? Shelley, enjoy the buffet: the 14th is Chinese New Year, so you can celebrate it early. Angie, I've never seen that depth of snow before either!
