Oh my, Girl.
I don't know how you folks ever get used to that weather, but I know some people LOVE it and some of my neighbors would LOVE to have snow - which almost NEVER happens here.


Do you like your Netti pot?
I've thought about giving that a try but I'm afraid I would drown myself.

Beautiful snow pictures, Ruth. Glad that you had a good holiday in spite of the weather. Ya'll are so hardy up there.


I will have to web-search "netti pot". Never saw that word before. If it helps head congestion I need one. I picked up a sinus infection on vacation and have been trying to get over it without having to take antibiotics.


Hugs,


Melissa

That's pretty much what my neighborhood looks like Ruth. I should have brought my camera with me today and taken some pictures. I will tomorrow if I think of it. Like Pam said, the sun finally came out today and about blinded me! I've become like a little mole...getting used to the gray skies. It was nice to see the sun again...before the next storm which is due in here Wed. night.

"They" say this weather makes us hardy! Do you agree? LOL

Ruth I am just amazed at al the snow some of you snow bugs are getting. I am in awe of how calm you all are about 12 inches of snow or more.

My DSisIL's birthday is tomorrow, same day as Pam's, and we have always tried to make it special, and not be, like you said, "leftover Christmas."
