Here's a partial article from a on-line newspaper about the pro longed cold weather and the after effects from it.....Thought you would get a laugh from it~

News Flash: The one thing that cold weather brings....

When the weather gets cold and the nights draw in, there isn’t always a great deal to do beyond getting an early night.

Baby fever: The number of women giving birth during the late months of the year has shot up by a fifth in a decade - faster than the increase during the summer. (Posed by models).

Their figures show a winter baby boom has pushed up birth rates to levels not seen for nearly 40 years.

The number of women giving birth during the late months of the year has shot up by a fifth in a decade – faster than the increase during the summer.

Autumn births have been particularly high over the past two years, according to the analysis.

As this is true, yes, I for one don't get a kick out of this! :) I may go in to hiding last summer/fall and may just say I can't go in to work!
 
Bearing down here in Chicago. A clipper will come down in the next few hours, about 1-2 inches is expected, followed by the arctic blast. Chili, enough for three days has been doing it's thing for three hours. Homemade bread dough about to go into the oven. This winter easily reminds me when I grew up here in Chicago. I'm 47, So I'm right in the wheel house for those winters back in the day. Be safe everyone, bring your pets inside.

Welcome to the Countdown, Willy Nilly! You're chili and bread sounds delicious! Stay safe and warm there in Chicago!
 
Praying he had safe travels and can get his truck fixed.

Thanks! He made it home around 8:00. The truck, which is actually his Dads truck, is in Richmond to be fixed. Not how he planned on spending his day. Lol!
 
LOL!!!! Good Point!! I'm sure most of us will be happy to see October get here but Sugar will probably be so busy that we won't see her!!

:-?

That is all a bummer.
But glad he made it home safely, friend.

Glad the truck made it there and that he made it home!!!
 
That was one of my favorite movies from this season!

It was great!!! I was saving it for a snowy, hang out at home kind of day cuz I heard it was a good one....and it was!!!!

Yep, beer in hand, the sounds of river in the background and sunset in the foreground... couldn't get much better.

Sounds pretty darn awesome! Your pictures are beautiful! Enjoy!!!

Good evening, friends! Just popping in to say hello and hope that all are staying warm.
I know it's cold in so much of the USA right now.
Today we celebrated my daughter's birthday with a brunch at our house.
It's hard to believe she is a grown woman with little ones of her own!
I'll be catching up as I can around here on what you are all up to.
Be safe in the winter weather!

Hi momnan! Happy bday to your daughter!!!

Well, I'm pretty tired, so I'm heading to bed. Talk to y'all later!

Hope you feel better in the am!

That is all a bummer.

Hey everyone!! Hope all is well in MMC. It was a delicious 58 in my neck of the woods today but that polar vortex will be popping here next week with lows of 7 and 9 for a couple of days with highs in the mid-20's. Got my pets' room ready so they can stay inside during the cold and have my hot chocolate, hot tea, and soup stocked up as well.

God bless any person and any animal having to be out in the cold for any reason. It is not an easy one to get through this year. Remember, if you have any good coats or blankets that you don't know what to with there are lots of local charities glad to take them off your hands and give them to those who need them.

Stay safe and stay warm everybody!! Back to the books for me:) If the dry reading doesn't put me to sleep I may just pass this class LOL!
 
ok, I give up, not going to make catching up here. I wish I had the time some of you do to be here more often but family and work just will not allow it lately. I really miss talking with you all too.
I have also been working of getting together some of the decorations for a few upcoming cakes.

It was -12c (10f) here around 8pm, but now it is only -8C (17f). Not very often we see temperatures go up at night instead of down. It did orginally say we would go down to -21c (-5f) tonight. Someone got that wrong, which is fine with me. We have seen lower temperatures this month with more snow than we have seen for 20 years according to the news tonight.
