Here we go again....Storms

snickers · 02-20-2008, 05:10 PM

Well, another lovely storm is on its way.
A ice storm, that is.

I have watched the weather all day and its suppose to start late tonight and run through Friday.

As I type, Doug is staking wood in the inside porch.

Everyone stay safe and check in as often as you can.

Hope everyone else in the other states fair well.

It is supposed to hit us too.. stay safe..

dixie · 02-20-2008, 06:26 PM

Your poor babies probably are wondering what type of place they have come to.

Keep warm and stay safe. They are only supposed to be thunderstorms when they reach here - we will see - haven't had a real ice storm yet but threatens all the time.

scrapchick · 02-20-2008, 06:28 PM

We get the ice and snow tomorrow during rush hour. Yippee. We had the CUTEST Texas cowboy customer in today. Everytime he said "yes ma'm" to the receptionist I drooled all over my desk. I think Im gonna move to Texas for warmth and charming cowboys. sheeesh.

Lol Cowboys are bad news scrapchick. Resist the temptation! We are supposed to get hit by the ice storm too. I work about 45 minutes away from home so I hope the ice either hits before I leave so I can call in or waits until after I get home. Dont think im goin to get that lucky though. Everythings ready for it if it does come though. We have the dogs bedded down with lots of straw. I dont think it matters much to my malamute though. He loves this weather!

snickers · 02-20-2008, 10:09 PM

Mommas dont let your babies grow up to be cowboys......

I am not use to driving on ice, so I will be home tomarrow and most likely Friday/

All you other state HT's, stay warm, dry, and safe.

scrapchick · 02-20-2008, 10:10 PM

yeah but they are so cute and the accent....adorable!
its frigid out there, brrrrrrrrr. tomorrow morning will be a treat! not.
stay warm everybody. Rumor has it spring is right around the corner!

scrapchick · 02-20-2008, 10:15 PM

Oh I forgot an important part of the story. We have two hottie cowboys that visit the plant, they are both fairly powerful guys from huge corporate worlds but instead of the suits we normally get, these two come in boots and wranglers....such a refreshing change. of course we sit in my office and have horse chat and the big shots are like

because i have big wig customers chatting and giggling about our ponies.

almost_mozart · 02-20-2008, 10:31 PM

Ughhhhhhhh....I saw a Robin the other day. Isn't that a good sign?

scrapchick · 02-20-2008, 10:35 PM

You did?!? That is indeed the first sign of spring! If you see him again shoosh him up this way please!

cascy · 02-20-2008, 10:44 PM

Nothing here yet... I'm supposed to be going to missouri this weekend so I hope it doesn't get to bad out

scrapchick · 02-20-2008, 10:57 PM

Starting in the morning with snow, changing to sleet, changing to ice, south of St. Louis. Probably right about Festus.

Oh yay.

scrapchick · 02-21-2008, 06:14 AM

I have never heard sleet/freezing rain come down like it is right now...it is absolutely pouring sleet. Very strange. This should be an interesting commute.

snickers · 02-21-2008, 06:49 AM

Stay safe. Its dark here. Clouds and all.

scrapchick · 02-21-2008, 06:52 AM

It's STILL coming down.

I'm sitting here watching cars slide past my house. I guess I better get moving.

gypsy · 02-21-2008, 07:11 AM

I hope it doesn't get too bad. We are supposed to leave early tomorrow am for Shawnee OK to go to the horse sale.

StefanieLeann14 · 02-21-2008, 08:51 AM

It hasnt gotten too bad here yet. Sleet off and on all morning but its not even really slick. I hope everyone else is doing ok!

rubysrider · 02-21-2008, 10:00 AM

It's been raining and thundering here this morning. Temps are in the 30's and there's ice on the trees, houses, and cars but thankfully the roads aren't slick-Yet. They said on the weather this morning that we're supposed to get more tonight and tomorrow morning. Oh Joy!!
