I'm gonna go into work for a bit today. Bet if there's a flake in the air, half of the lab staff will call in.

I am on a carving roll. There's a dozen stamps waiting on the shelf!

Our driveway looks like one big MUD HOLE

Good SNOWY Sunday morning from Asheville, NC!!!!

The snow's falling so hard it looks like the angels were having pillow fights and the pillows burst!

Here's hoping the trees stay standing and no one's power goes out.

LOL... usually that is so, but we went early in the day (around 10am), and it really wasn't that bad. Took longer at the pharmacy (there is Always a long line there) than to go thru regular check-out.

Didn't need milk or bread... needed coffee...LOL

Have to go out again in a little while, to get sports stuff for my 15 yr. old daughter. She needs leggings for dance class, and equipment for the Girl's Field Hockey League she just joined. Was pretty surprised about that! The only sports she has ever been interested in have been dance and cheerleading, but at least she'll be getting some more exercise... instead of just Texting on the cell phone... :)

Yep, I was just out in the same snow that Knit Wit is seeing - but it's much snowier in North Asheville that it is here in the western part of the county - go figure - we usually have it worse.

Rather sadly, I was one of the unfortunates that had to go to the grocery AFTER church (work for me) hours...... it wasn't bad til I had to check out. I inadvertently got in the Express Lane (the line was so long that I hadn't seen the Express sign, lol!), but some man came along and "kindly" (NOT!) pointed out that I was in said express lane - I had a few more than 10 things...... So I moved, and still walked out the door right behind him (he stayed in the express lane with his bunch of cilantro) - lol!!

So now I'm gonna go have an LTC making party and watch movies with the kids ;-))

Given that we've had about six (?) "snow days" out of school so far, this is the first time that we've actually had this much snow on the ground. We've got around two inches here so far but Todd says the worst is supposed to still be on the way.

I think it'll be funny if the southern school districts get more snow out of this than the northern ones and the northern parents are looking around saying, "Snow day?!?!!? Where's the snow?!?!?!?"

We're supposed to get 6"-10" here in DE. The Red Queen (our store manager) scared us all to death by coming in & calling a managers' meeting in the middle of the day when she was supposed to still be on vacation.... So we have contingency plans in case the mall closes or opens late.

Her daughters moved to Charlotte last fall to work for Dillard's--they called to say that there was AN INCH of snow and their mall closed down. Apparently there are no snow shovels or salt trucks in Charlotte....

Sheba,
I moved here from upstate NY. where I live is 35 miles north of Charlotte.

Here, for bad weather, they have NOTHING.
No salt, no slag.... no plows.... no sanders....

When it snows here.... we are helpless. We look out the windows for it to be melted... if it's not, we get to stay home again.

I work for a furniture factory. It's nothing to have 300 people call in saying they can't come to work..... and they really can't..... they have nothing to handle it.

Shiloh,
I just "heard" on another board... that you are a Monty Python fan.
OMG.... I knew there was something wrong with you.

"What if someone comes at me with a pointed stick?"....
"Fresh fruit not good enough for you, eh ?? "...
"Now.. come at me with that Ba-na-na"......

"your wife... does she go ?? Nudge nudge wink wink".....

Charlie is GROANING..... he's NOT a Python fan.... drives him crazy when I get started on it.
LOL

If he weighs the same as a duck he must be a witch.

You got that right! I grew up in Michigan so moving to Charlotte and watching the frenzy when it snows is pretty funny. People rush out to the grocery store and buy up all the bread and milk for one day of snow.

They don't have the trucks, shovels, and salt here to handle anything. Nor do they know how to handle it or drive in it. It's probably more dangerous to be on the roads here with an inch of snow than up north with several feet of snow. I know how to drive in snow, but I avoid going out here in it since you would not believe the number of wrecks and cars in ditches when it happens here!

Sorry about that. I would love to have some snow. Our land and crops are a little parched around here.

Below are pics of the MONTY PYTHON BRIDGEKEEPER card we did. We sent the stamp up to New Hampshire to be planted as part of a MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL series they're doing.
