Today has turned into a vacation day for me due to our severe weather. I've already called and let my boss know that I won't be in. I'm lucky to work for a company that keeps my best interests in mind, and encourages me to do the right thing by myself and stay at home when I feel it is too dangerous to drive.
Right now it is snowing, and has been for some time. Everything is once again covered in a thick blanket of what looks like white fleece. It is a beautiful winter wonderland to look at.
It is supposed to turn to freezing rain later today. I hate freezing rain because, unless you are a lunatic you don't dare get in a car and out on the road in it; you can't go out and play in it; it can ruin shrubs, trees and plants, and is at best miserable!
It is bitterly cold here - about 15 degrees. The snow has already covered the footprints of the young man who delivers my morning paper.
I let the girls out this morning at 5:30am, but they weren't as excited as the other day when it snowed - probably, in part because there is more than a 15 degree difference in the temperature! It's so cold they just did their business and got back in by the fire. And you sure can't blame them!
More about the weather later...............right now I am going to sit back and enjoy a hot cup of coffee and the scenery!

LOL about the "girls". I have a miniature dachshund who is less than thrilled with snow and looks at me pathetically if I haven't gone outside ahead and shoveled a "path" for him to the closest tree. Have a great day !! Enjoy the scenery !
YOOHOO! Send that weather on down to the gulf coast of Texas. I think it's going to get down to thirty tonight. I wish it would snow.
Glad you're enjoying your winter wonderland.
