It was!!! He was going on and on about how you didn't want to be where he was and feel the wind that he was feeling. Then he shouted "So just stay home like they've told you to do". LOL!!!!!!!

I was going to get on here and complain about how cold it was, but right now I'm just happy it's 15 degrees and I am not in the situation some of you are in...

You are in my prayers...stay warm!

Made, shutting down the whole country??? Wow. Good call, though.

Hope you & your family stay safe and warm too, coach.

How is your daughter? I bet you have some great stories from the holidays!

Wow, I thought that picture was funny but it really is true. There are only 8 out of the 92 counties in Indiana that don't have some kind of travel restrictions in place right now. It's illegal to drive in 50 of them.

So if you want to go to the area around New Albany, you are good to go!! North and west of that though, you are out of luck.

Okay, I'm going to try and get some sleep.

Goodnight, Everyone!!!!!

Ok, onto my happy place!
Here's my Santa!!

I had fallen in love with him last month. He was too expensive, then he was purchased. Last night, he was returned! So, with clearance, and my discount, he was a steal!

Love him! It was meant to be and he came back to you!

Praying for everyone!

I've got to get ready for bed soon.
First day back tomorrow, I really don't want to head back there.

One day back and then a day off so its not all bad.

Have a good first day back Xmas!

Good night, everybody.

There are gigantic icicles falling off my house. Every time one falls the dogs go crazy. I have to pick the girls up in a little bit, I'm afraid to walk out there!

Oh dear! I can't imagine what this must be like, it must be freezing!

Merry Morning!!! Anyone ever told you guys you all talk too much! LOL I am trying my best to catch up but it is HARD with Isaac.

How was the weekend? Ours was good, quiet. We watched the movie 'New Years Eve' for the first time on Saturday night. I thought it was quite appropriate for the transition out of the season.

Mr Festive is back to work today and Jacob is back to school. I know we are already on the 6th but it feels like my official start to the year now. The tree came down on Friday and I am in the middle of taking down everything else this morning.

It is such a bittersweet feeling. Obviously I feel sad that the season has past but every now and then I get a little surge of excitement thinking about Christmas 2014. The Christmas spirit reminding me of things to come.

I got a few decorations in the sale last week including some festive candy cane coloured tinsel!

Well I hope everyone has a good day at work or home. Hopefully I can find some time to pop back later!

all the road plows got lost tonight! The roads were worse than terrible. Had to drive home from the Toronto island airport, not fun! Has to be at least 5 inches of new snow. By the time we got home it was starting to ice rain.
But I do thank the Lord for getting us safely home again!
I think I will sleep well tonight!

That's scary Christmasstar, I'm glad you made it home safe and sound!

Well Indianapolis has declared a snow emergency. So no one is allowed on the road unless it is an emergency. This is the first time that has ever happened in my lifetime.

My county has also declared one now too. So everyone gets to hunker down and wait out the storm.

That is good news, stay safe.

Extra prayers for all of the animals that are exposed to the elements- May God watch over them, give them shelter, comfort & warmth

I think and pray about this every day.

I would be shouting much worse than that if I had to be out in the snow for 15 hours!

Hi Sam, it's good to see you!
I'm getting back in to my regular routine today too. It was so nice to not wake up so early for two weeks!
I hope all is well and that you have a wonderful day!
