Holy moly! That white stuff is scary. It was cold last week but it's going to be 70 today :D

dc 01/07/2008 01:00 PM

Where you been? :D Don't you want the whole 'snow' experience?

Aliie 01/07/2008 01:06 PM

Been working the other job a lot of hours and my lap top decided it liked a virus better than me since I stopped using it for hours on end. It's getting reworked and I hope to have it back in a week.

The "whole snow" experience? Ummmmmmm, let me think about that for a sec, NO! :D Is that new snow of from years past?

Missed you guys terribly. Had to come back to work at doc's today so I could get back on and see what everyone has been up to lately.

dc 01/07/2008 01:14 PM

That doesn't sound like fun, thought you got a life or something, it's been known to happen. :D

That's all fresh snow, it's been snowing for 2 1/2 days. Sunny today, but cold, I was hoping for at least 30 finish shoveling. Barely 16.

Aliie 01/07/2008 01:19 PM

Not my own life just the doctors & hospitals that I owe money to :rolleye1:

I can't imagine having the cold and the snow. I'd go bonkers after a few days. It was 12 - 17 for lows and 25-35 for highs here last week and we were totally un prepared for that kind of cold here. I went to the sporting goods store and got the snow skiing underarmour clothing. Had to kick the heat up to 65 just to stay warm.
