This isn't even right!

I mean, really.... 72 and then 35??????????????????

Let it snow...

This was taken out my bedroom window this morning. (Don't mind all the smudges, they are like a year's worth of kids fingerprints on the window...haha) The snow is pretty nasty out there. It will be forever before the Jag is out of the snow - good thing its broke down! The kids' bikes and such are nearly covered in the snow drifts, some of them appear to be about 3ft around the neighborhood. It dropped sleet and ice for about 12 hours yesterday on top of all that snow, too. I had to get something out of the trunk last night and my feet didn't drop through the snow at all.

I think its funny that I can look outside and see "feet" of snow but the tops of the vehicles are clean.

Lime and Violet

Ok, so I've never in my life listened to a PodCast. I really wasn't even sure what it was - I had an idea, but hadn't went there myself. UNTIL TODAY. And let me tell you, Lime and Violet are my new heroes haha. They talk about knitting, yarn, life, they laugh, they cuss, they make fun, how much better could you possibly get?????

I'm downloading all the previous PodCasts as I sit here typing listening to "Smells Like Hippies" and watching it sleet, ice, and snow outside.

Speaking of weather, I'm not really sure what to think. It hasn't snowed 12in or anything, in fact, the tops of the cars are snow-free. BUT, there is lots of snowfall, I think that the sleet/rain/ice/crap melted the snow off the cars. I haven't been out, but there are about 3in up the back sliding doors. I would estimate we got 4-6 inches so far. Its supposed to drop precipitation from the sky in one form or another for the next 12 hours or so.

There's a blizzard coming my way!!!

Poor Sydney, she's had a really rough weekend. On Thursday I had to pick her up from school because she was throwing up and she was sick 2x otw home, then 2x more that night. Friday she had a 102ish fever most of the day (Ibuprofen did help take it down). Then all weekend she was doing fine. Last night she spiked a 103 temp again so I kept her home again today. I was talking to her teacher via email and she was going to leave me her homework in the office to pick up if she was still sick tomorrow, but said she thought there would be a snow day tomorrow. I was like whaaaa? So I looked up on our local news and this is what I found!!! LOL

Are you KIDDING me!?!?!

UPDATE: Now they have added a few inches up north and moved the line down meaning likely more snow here, too...

UPDATE 2: Changed again... now we are in the 6-12" range - oh yay...

FREEZING

I can't stop making these patterns, they are so fun! Of course I can't guarantee that they will make gorgeous hats because I haven't knitted any of them, but I plan to! LOL

It is so cold here today! OMG! I can't get warm. A little bit ago I decided to take a bath to try to warm up and it wasn't until I was emersed that I remembered that Ally had just taken a bath... yeah, that didn't help warm me up any! (Gotta love a cold tub when you are expecting luxury...)
