Thanks flowers

Merigold I heard it was bad your way...so sorry for you ice is so dangerous stay safe

Thanks for the thoughts jj. The snow is so heavy and thick that my little car just can't get traction, we did not get so much ice. More concerned about the winds, drifting and additional snow. But, I'm staying put and am ready to start my own party this evening with a bottle of egg nog in the frige ha ha. My husband is a fire fighter and is on shift so it will just be me and the cats!

You and your husband stay safe and warm. Not much ice is a good thing, but drifting snow and whiteouts are bad too.

Merry Christmas enjoy that egg nog..not to much for the cats..grin...

:)

Oh Wow! Congrats Jim and Karen!! Great job. Just getting to check in for the first time! And thanks again Flowers for a wonderful and fun time. Sorry I can't stay right now. Y'all have a blessed Christmas!!
