Sewer - what is the weather forecast for NE Ohio this weekend???? Am I going to be driving in a blizzard??? As long as I-77 stays clear I'll be happy.
Cold & snow showers tonight, cloudy & cold Saturday, snow & windy Sunday. Take care on the road, it's VERY slick.:scared1:
 
Thank you Sewer! As long as I can get through the WV mtns I should be good to go!

As for the rest of you, wow! Lots of snow falling everywhere! I guess now would not be a good time to tell you that Ally is in shorts and a t-shirt right now and it's about 80 degrees out. So I won't tell you.

I'm soooo dreading the cold in Ohio. My body just can't take it anymore. I have a huge suitcase packed FULL for just me! Sweaters, jeans, more sweaters, turtlenecks, more sweaters.... well, you get the idea.

Oh, and my sis called me today - I think they're gonna head bck to Disney in either January or Feb. She was worried b/c they're driving this time and the kids would need to miss about 2 weeks of school for them to do a week at Disney. So I set her straight but telling her to leave Friday after school, drive late, then on Saturday she could come to our place and relax, then leave early Sunday, straight to Disney for 6 nights, and be back at their house the following Sunday. And that of course gives us yet ANOTHER reason to go to Disney while they're there! Like we need a reason!

Where is everyone???? Please come out and play!
 
Kara- Drive safe!!! It is suppose to be yucky!

Well I went out today and got the last of what I needed and then I got home and our never out lights went out:eek: So off to Kmart Mike went to get a new bulb and some last minute storm things. Man things I don't think of Logs for the fireplace,batteries for the flashlight :rolleyes1 Oh well


I hope I can get on later to talk to everyone.
 

The first flakes have fallen.........LET THE BLIZZARD BEGIN!!!

Please stay safe everyone - saw a lot of power outages in Indiana.....

Debbie - how much snow do you have?
 
/
Cammie - what are you beating????

That's how I shovel!

I'll be safe - I seriously do not have to go out for anything. Did all my running around this morning: food store, liquor store, hardware store - in that order! Lauren is staying with me instead of going to her dad's - she doesn't want me to be stuck inside by myself. (Sweet of her but I actually was looking forward to it!;) ) I'll just be really pissed if we lose power!

Kara - When are you leaving again?
 
Leaving tomorrow morning around 8ish. How do you handle a power outage with Amanda?

Our whole first floor is wired to run off a generator, but we haven't tested it in about two years now - that's my ex's job. Every winter, I tell him to do it and then he forgets!:headache:

Alot of her equipment has an internal battery and some have separate batteries that I also have charged. Thankfully, we've never really been without power for more than a few hours; and power never seems to go out in the middle of the night - when she's using most of her equipment. (watch - I bet I just jinxed myself now!)
 
Does anyone have a cocktail weiner recipe? I have one but have never made it and need a tested one.

This is what I have

Mini Hot dogs
1 jar apricot preserves
1 bottle BBQ sauce
brown sugar
vinegar

Cammie to be alone would be heaven:cloud9:

I did buy hot chocolate and mini marshmellows for Lucas first Luke warm chocolate and We rented Horton Hears a Who.
 
Oh, I love cocktail weinies! But I don't have a recipe. Check www.recipezaar.com and then you can sort by rating. That's where we get 99% of our recipes now and have never been disappointed!
 
I have a friend who always made them in the crock pot, but i don't have her recipe. I love them!!!! Good comfort food!

Debbie - how much snow do you have?

About 6 inches I think.

Cammie...I thought you were playing hockey! LOL

Really good - has a little "kick" to it! I make it all the time!
 
Received an e-mail earlier today from a friend who works at Disney World, who wrote that she had seen the weather report for the Cleveland area, and reminded me it was 80 in Orlando today. I'm getting depressed............

Me too! I have 10 inches of snow outside my door right now -- and it's still snowing!
 
yup and it is going to keep snowing and snowing and snowing until Monday and atleast it will give us time to get some baking done.
 
Well, I'm in the last minute crunch time phase! I say I am going to get things done early and then everything gets done at the last minute! I guess in actuality though if I get it done this weekend it won't be as last minute as I have in the past!!! Main goal today is to get the darn Christmas cards in the mail!!!!!!!

I have been stressing over so much lately that during this festive time I am trying not to vent here or anywhere. Unfortunately, with a new year around the corner I start to see ALL the changes I want to make for the new year and this year I feel like the list is so pathetically long!!!!!! Oh well. Hopefully I can REALLY get my **** together in 2009.

Even though I haven't posted here as much as I want to I still am reading and keeping up with all of you because I still am so thankful to have all of you in my back pocket. That's how I feel. Even though most of us haven't even met, I feel like any of you would do anything for any of us!!!! I love you guys!!!!
