I could be wrong... but I think this is not going to be fun.
My husband just left to go play piano all day at the college's premier restaurant. (open to the public)
The problem??
It's raining and is supposed to begin sleeting in another hour or two. May even snow. You should see the radar...not good. It will be freezing by 11 a.m.
I'm supposed to go up there at 3pm to eat with him. I think I'm going to be iced in.
and will he be able to make it home later???
AAARRRGGHH!!!
Three years ago he had to play there on Thanksgiving and I was home deathly ill with a kidney infection. I'm having flashbacks.

I'm really sorry. Truly. I'm so hoping that y'all don't get stuck there! Too bad he can't just cancel and stay home. You all stay safe, and let us know that you're ok!!
It's just raining here, but it's really cold. Way different than the 78* we had yesterday. At least it feels more like Thanksgiving. My DD and her family are on their way from Tulsa, where they're having a bit of freezing rain.
Everyone stay safe!

Someone told me it would be better to get iced in with friends than to stay at home and get iced in. So.. I'm getting dressed and hope to get up there before it freezes. It's 33 degrees right now with rain, and wintry mix is on the way.
I HATE THIS!
kayak.. I hope your pain continues to get less and less.

Glad you had a good time and made it back safely!! We were under a winter weather advisory and we did get a bit of sleet, but that's it. Thank goodness. It's just really, really cold. And I hibernate when it's cold. Posts: 624 | From Oklahoma | Registered: Jun 2010

I got lucky too because the windshield had a layer of sleet on it when I went out. It came right off with wipers on the driver's side. ( icy on the other part )
Hibernating now!

Lymetoo,
I'm glad everything worked out in the end.
The Lord really does work for the good in all things.
I'm glad you were able to get there and home again safely.
Take care!!

Lymetoo...Glad it went well for you. I was dreading the winter stuff after the tornado weather last night. I plan to go eat there one of these times...I hear it's ALWAYS good. We got moved to south Missouri but now we're about 2 1/2 hours to the east of you instead of 2 1/2 hours north of you. When I get that way to see my sister I'll let you know maybe we can meet...support is always good.
We had a wonderful day at our daughter's who lives 10 miles away. Tummy full...need to find the bed Posts: 75 | From Missouri | Registered: Apr 2009

I know one thing...I'm not ready for winter. I think it's going to break me this year.
The sun is out today, and is melting all the frost from last night. My dog was in the workshop with a heater on (she's old and the cold gets to her too) and my DH went to let her out. She stepped out, sniffed twice then turned and headed back in to where the heater was. She didn't even want to make the walk from the workshop to the house, lol.
I know how she feels.

Cold here too. 17 degrees this am with wind so dont' know what the wind chill factor was.
Cat..did the same as your dog Misfit...I opened the door to let her out for her usual morning romp...and she didn't even want to cross the threshold. She turned around and came back in the house.

I pay close attention to my cat...we had a small tornado come through here once and my cat hid well ahead of time. Couldn't find him anywhere. We finally found him underneath a bedside table that had THE smallest opening to get through. I still don't know how he got under there. I have a picture of his head just poking out after things were over, lol.
My cat has never been outside, but he seems to know when things are coming. If there is any weather change at all on its' way, he acts up a coupla days before. He's my new favorite meterologist, lol...

Oh yes.. those animals are smart .. instinct, I guess! (esp about the tornadoes)
There's still ice/sleet on the steps going up to the apt next door. None on our steps (only have 3)...It's above freezing now, but those steps are in the shade.
May get snow next Tuesday. How about you, kam? Misfit? You guys better not send more crap over here!

SNOW????!!!!???? That's a four letter word around here. Girlfriend, as long as it's not another ice storm. I've seen them increasing the last 10 years. The 1st one after I moved to this area was THIRTEEN days without electricity. The 2nd was 7 days. I gotta tell you...I loves me the electricity! I'm a child of modern convenience, and I make no apologies for that.
But really, snow? I don't like snow. It's pretty and all, but other people are welcome to it. I lived in Michigan for 3 years and I saw enough snow to last me the rest of my life. Seriously. I'm going to have to watch the weather. Posts: 624 | From Oklahoma | Registered: Jun 2010
