    Catching up on the old thread I see we are all in snow storms and blizzards. I sit here in a blizzard myself today wishing you all well.

    With this new thread I hope it brings us warmth and safety in these weather conditions. As we again unite as friends in another thread you better all grab your cuddle partners. The snow is coming hard, its coming down fast and deep. What on earth can we discuss now to pass the time?

    Adam and bear come keep me warm.
    Someone keep an eye on Alty. She likes to cuddle with all the boys. ;)
    Red, your getting married so stick with your man.
    Stringer, awwww we know your only cuddle choice is Marta.
    Oh Unky your old enough now so watch out. We will find you one.
    JLo well you're a newlywed still. Enjoy!
    Bella I might consider sharing adam, if he doesn't complain about that.

    If I missed you then throw another log on the fire, grab me a beer and come on over!

    Ok everyone here we are. Brrr... why am I out today. It's a storm and I am loving it. Supposed to get even worse as the day goes on. I want to go home and play outside. I remember doing that as a kid. My son would love it.

    It quite nice here today.

    Kind of sunny with a slight breeze, perfect for dog walking.

    Except I've no intention of taking the hounds out again, took them out this morning, I thought hey, ill go for a run around the park and let the dogs off for a run... bad bad idea!

    Josie, who is a springer and brendans dog has no respect for me at all, oh, she loves brendan,goes all gaga for him, the trollope.. do you think she would even listen to me... nope! Not a chance.

    Raining here today... thank God that's all... we didn't need the icestorm they were calling for up until I went to bed last night. THe Ice however is less than 100 miles north of here... so it was a near miss.

    I think I just pi$$ed my pants!

    What is wrong with sharing? WG has ALL the snow and she isn't sharing.

    I think she needs to be put in the corner until she learns how to be nice.

    Its supposed to be even worse here as the day goes on. I was sure the boss would have told me to stay home. Not a chance. Little does he know I am leaving early.

    My bunny cage was blown over! It's a 2 story condo almost and it blew over. My son was crying, but still had humor saying he was glad she wasn't white because at least we still could find her. What a kid.

    What a cute kid.

    You know... they closed school here cause of the ONE FARKING snowflake!

    I am surprised they closed my sons school. His is the last in the district to ever be closed. They try to delay it first. The fact they closed it shows to me this isn't good.

    The bunny was safe. I may take her in for the night when I get home.

    Sorry. The corners are all filled with snow drifts. We had thunder and lightning along with the blizzard last night. It's snowing to beat the band now, but with no wind. I don't hear any traffic at all on my street or on the main artery several houses away. No plows have gone past either (I was up all night listening for them).

    WG we are getting the winds with it right now. The drifts I went through were amazing to get here. Proud of my little Jeep. I only had her in part time drive to.

    I'm from western NY NW of Rochester and just south of the lake. I called my mom and then one of my brothers. No answer. What's happening out there?

    Glad the bunny was safe.

    They didn't really close our schools this time, but they did last week for a half inch of snow fall. :eek:

    I could run circles around the people here in the south. It's 70 and they hear the word snow and the stores are sold out. But then again, most vehicles here are rear wheel drive.

    Not too bad in southeast ontario by the lake. I got out at 0730 this morning, nothing was plowed or salted, four wheel drive is the way to go. Have a happy snowstorm !

    Son has to fly from Nashville to Oregon today and back again, then drive home to Canada on Saturday. I just hope the conditions are good for him.

    Of course I've heard of Potsdam. Isn't there a SUNY there? I have a friend in Carthage. Can you see the Adirondacks from your front porch?

    My mom's north of Brockport.

    I've got a bucket or two for you...

    My patio has the most beautiful natural designs of snow drifts, some are over 6 feet high.
