Possible snow storm Monday night into Tuesday with whatever significant accumulation means.

So, we are supposed to get 6 inches of heavy wet snow in my area starting this morning. I figured I could run out and get some groceries when the store opens at 7:00, but I just looked outside and it's coming down cats and dogs already! I mean it went from nothing, to a full-blown blizzard out there in less than 20 minutes. I'll shop tomorrow; too much of a wuss to drive in snow.

We went shopping to beat the snow that was coming in......and so did everyone else.

You're lucky. I wish I was taller, because it makes your legs look longer and slimmer. I'm only 5' 5".

I'm only 5' 4 & 1/4" ... married to 6' 8".
Mother to 6' 3" & 6' 4".

And shockingly, half the time I still have to drag a chair over to get things from the top shelf of the pantry.

True, but the odds are not real encouraging.

All things being equal ... I choose not crashing vs. crashing, thank you very much.

All things being equal ... I choose not crashing vs. crashing, thank you very much.

And I choose surviving a crash over not, but, only if there is not other options, like safe arrival.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas and SeaWorld are about 90 min. away from us. Schlitterbahn is about an hour.

My parents live literally 5 minutes away from Fiesta Texas.

And I love love love Schlitterbahn. Best water park in the world.

I was just thinking of you this morning. Was going to page you.
Glad you're back.

Thank you

My cousin's foster child of 8+ years is being transferred by the agency that has custody of her.
(Too little, too late ... but what do I know?)
So, Cuz had to go get photos printed to produce a "memory book" of Shannon's time with her family.

Anyway, she stopped by here with some photos of my parents that were taken just weeks before my dad got sick (from Auntie's surprise 65th birthday).

Coincidentally, I drove through my old childhood neighbourhood this afternoon, and ended up driving by my dad's old work parking lot. When I was in my teens and early 20's, there were many times I would be near his parking lot and I would stop and leave him a note under his windshield. (I told you I was an awesome daughter.)

Sweet!

Yep, Schlitterbahn is AWESOME, and we have so many great family memories of all three parks...!

You know, you could turn this all around. In the fashion world, older styles eventually come back in vogue. So if anyone looks at you funny about wearing your waist pack, you just tell them that you're on the cutting edge of fashion and ahead of the curve! Then follow that up with a condescending look and say, "peasant"!

Like this!

Qu-est-ce que c'est?
(What is it?)

We missed you, too. I'm really glad your team won for you. You must be on cloud 9, I presume.

Actually I was emotionally drained because it was such a crazy game. But on another note, guess who doesn't have pictures of her trip?

I love the way you phrase things. If you did the news or weather on tv, I would watch.

You are, and what an emotional day.

Yeah, my eyes might have watered once or twice.
