Why does today have to be a snow day? WHY???? It was my last day of freedom before the holiday vacation for the whole damn family. It's just not fair. *stomps feet and pouts*

x( :cry:

1. OMG you and me both, BNL!

I had SO MANY THINGS TO DO! Hair appointment at 10:30...nope. More Christmas shopping (I have NOTHING for my mother, aunt, and niece, and I need to get more toys for Jr.)...nope. Need to go to Weggies, need food...nope.

I was even looking forward to a lil' Dunkin' Donuts drivethrough on the way to my hair appointment. DENIED!

Still, the snow is purty...right?

Sigh.

[DS1]

2. The only pretty snow is on a postcard from far far away

I don't want to deal with it. I'm tired of it shrinking the widths of roads, getting my feet wet, hands cold, and car stuck.

[BarenakedLady]

4. Hey this is my whine!

Don't bogart my whine, dude!

;)

[BarenakedLady]

3. I dunno about pretty

Ok, it's pretty BUT....*whine*.

I haven't even started my christmas shopping. :blush: That was/is my excuse for getting out by myself next week. :D

[MorningGlow]

10. I hear you

Shit, I offered to do Christmas Eve dinner for the entire family, including my brother and his family from California. But do I HAVE any food yet? NoOOOOoo. So I was going to get presents and essential food today, then "big dinner" food next week. Now I have to do EVERYthing on Monday.

At least your kids are a wee bit older than mine is, right? It's the 5 YO's first snow day, and he promptly hit the video games. You'd think that would be great--leave him to rot his brain for a little while and relax with some coffee, right? NO WAY. "Mama...how do I get out of this?...Mama, I need help....Mama...mama...mama..." AUGH!

But damn, I'm glad I got my freelance work done yesterday.

[Arugula Latte]

26. Rage, rage against the calling of the snow day.

[Inchworm]

6. If the youngn's are weaned...

Offer them comprimise.

Go out and make a snowman.. or.. clean house. :rofl:

Yea... that looks good written.

:hug:

[BarenakedLady]

8. Oh yea, that'll fly.

:eyes:

How are you doing? Prolly no snow down there.

:hi:

[Inchworm]

15. Toss them sandwiches out there

Even though you lock them out of the house, they still gotta eat :D

All is well here. I'm an emotional wreck, but that's another thread hehe.

How about you? Got the curtains opened? Get us some pics!! :)

:hi:

[BarenakedLady]

16. Two went out for about 1.5 minutes.

And pronounced to "Too Cold!" Heh.

I'm sorry you are an emotional wreck. I feel ya! I'm about ready to "disappear" into the snow.

I'd take a picture but it's all white out there. I can just barely see the edge of the woods. Juncos are at the thistle feeder though. :D

[Inchworm]

19. Yay! Snowbirds!

See?!? Winter rawks!!

:hug:

[mnhtnbb]

11. I remember those days. Back to school couldn't come fast enough.

Sorry your freedom was cut short.

:hug:

[BarenakedLady]

13. I just had things to do.

:(

Oh well, there will be a next time.

Thanks.

[DarkTirade]

12. Heh. I was just driving past your town when I heard the announcements on the radio.

[BarenakedLady]

14. How were the roads?

It looks like it's getting worse out there.

[DarkTirade]

21. Driving was fine, but accelerating and decelerating were a l'il tricky.

I didn't even want to brave the roads here in my town right now, so I just walked to the bank and back.

It was fine the way there. But on the way back the wind decided to pick up. In my face. I grew a nice collection of ice crystals on every part of me that was facing forwards. And it made it more than a bit difficult to see. I had to wear my sunglasses to be able to look forward, but they kept getting coated with little chunks of ice.

Unfortunately I have to go back to your side of town at least once today, because I gotta pick my grandpa up from dialysis. Maybe twice, 'cause I'm scheduled to work today. I gotta check and make sure there WILL be work tonight though. :P

[BarenakedLady]

24. Be careful out there!

:hug:

[DarkTirade]

27. Gah. Just spent ten minutes trapped in a parking lot.

As the plows went through on the road, they kept tossing more and more snow into the driveway where I was picking my grandpa up. And it's on a bit of an upslope. So we got stuck. Couldn't go. I watched as a 4 wheel drive truck took about 10 minutes just to gouge tire tracks deep enough to go. I couldn't even follow it up normally, I had to go back into the parking lot and get some forward momentum before I could even follow its tire tracks.

I'm s'posed to be at work in 10 minutes. Takes me 20 to get there on a good day. Something tells me I may be a wee bit late. :P

[TieDyedDad]

17. Join the club girl....

6-14 inches here today...Hang in there...:hug:

[BarenakedLady]

18. It's going to be a long couple of weeks.

*sigh*

[TieDyedDad]

20. How long are your kids off for..

??

[BarenakedLady]

22. Until the New Year.

They go back to school on January 5th.

I'll be committed by then. ;)

[TieDyedDad]

23. Naaahh

besides you cant be committed. Patterson is closing most of the mental health facilities anyways...You can be the crazy shopping cart lady!!!

[Arugula Latte]

25. We just had FIVE snow days in a row.

Winter Break came a week early for my kids.

It's because it's Portland -- people freak at the slightest trace of snow.

[Mojambo]

28. Today was my xmas shopping day.

My ONLY dedicated xmas shopping day.

a foot and a half of snow later...

I'm totally screwed.

[JenaLaw]

29. i feel your pain

Sunday I am supposed to leave on vacation. 10 hr drive...and they are predicting more snow.

WYY? Haven't had a vacation that did not involve a family member's home since 2002...and now I will be cutting it short. I hate winter right now.

[tigereye]

30. my son was sick this morning, so I know how you feel....

:hug: I don't feel so good, either. Luckily most of my shopping and baking is done.

[Parche]
