OK, you are in BIG trouble, young lady. We now have your stupid weather. Think warm thoughts!

LOL! You know how much snow we ended up with? 0 inches! It's been flurying (fluring...flurrying...whatever) off and on but we're not getting even kind of close to what the weather service said we would (we spent most of the day yesterday under a winter weather warning). I did hear that it was going to intensify as it moved through Missouri, though. Good luck with that! ;)

LOL We got the most pathetic snow "storm" there ever was. It's really sad how they respond to it, too. Oh well, it's better than being snowed in.

We're getting the snow now. Just had to go to the post office and brushed over an inch off my car and it's still coming down. They're saying we could get 3 to 6 inches of this stuff before it ends. Oh well, that's Chicago weather for you.

Snow day today for the girls. There's 5 inches on my porch and a ton blowing around. Jeff got to work all right though. It's a fluffy snow as opposed to a slushy one.

It took me 1 hour and 40 minutes to make it home last night, normal time is 30 minutes. Both Eddie and I made it to work this morning. Our forecast now is for 10 inches. I cleaned off my car then went in to get ready. By the time I went back out, the car had another 1/2 inch of snow. The schools in our area are closed. What a day! And, our advisory does not end until 6 p.m. tonight.

LMAO you guys! We have about 4 snowflakes in the driveway. We actually got more snow on Tuesday than we did yesterday.
