I might try snow cleaning my rugs tomorrow (google on snow cleaning rugs.) It's cheaper than hiring a steam cleaner. So I'll try my cheap Chinese wool ones. If they come out looking good then I'll do the persian rug.

Snow is so irritating. We've drunk all the cheap wine in the house and didn't want to walk to the nearest wine shop in a blizzard. Hence we were obliged to drink chateauneuf du pape with spaghetti bolognaise. That just isn't right.

My heart just bleeds for you. We were reduced to Sancerre with beans on toast last week - it was awful

No no - putting it in the bolognaise wouldn't have been right

I truly feel sorry for you. I wish I could ship some of my good, cheap Chilean Merlot for you dinner. ($12.99 a 750ml bottle.)

Four inches of snow in my area would be lots of snow.

A few years ago I saw someone drive into a ditch. I saw him on local televison news that night.

Two snowflakes, yes just 2 snowflakes, had hit his windshield. He panicked. And drove into a ditch.

The reporter asked him why he just didn't turn on his windshield wipers ?

He didn't think of that.

My opinion is that he was attempting to cover up he was drunk driving and was hoping his story of the crazed snowflakes attacking his truck would prevent a drunk driving breath test.

I have no idea what the end of the report said, I was laughing too hard to breathe well.

47 outside. I was talking with some friends back home in NJ today. He couldn't fathom the fact that it was 28 in Orlando. It was like...earth shattering apocalyptic visions dancing through his head.

"Poor Mickey" was the only thing he could say. Yes, poor Mickey indeed.

Supposed to get back up to the 80's by the weekend. And people wonder why I'm always sick.

The global warming roller coaster needs to end.

Very wierd going to work this morning.

It's snowing again!
Previously thawing snow on the ground is now replenished.
I'm officially used to everything being white now...

ShortNCuddlyAm · 01-13-2010, 06:12 AM

According to the weather forecast - light snow. According to what I can see out my window - moderate-heavy snow...

Sweetpea · 01-13-2010, 07:01 AM

My feet are freezing off... And it looks cold outside, grayish.

Sever weather warnings for the NW of England. Sky is as grey as a banker's heart.

Only had a few snow drifts on our way home (and no, we don't have, nor normally need a 4x4, but boy, am I happy this year with my snow tires! Normally we only have rain from october till april...)
