    What do the kids think of all the snow? Can they go outside and build a snowman?

    Angie, we zapped by a storm that rolled in at 6:30 this morning. It mixed with lake effect snow and the roads were awful. They didn't cancel school because of the time it hit, lol, but they let out at 12:30 pm today. LOL It cleared up right after my DD got home. Supposed to get more snow tonight, then a break for a day or two, then zapped again when all the really cold arctic air starts coming in. Yep! That's typical northern Indiana winter weather. LOL
    Was yours lake effect?

    We gothit with snow yesterday afternoon. Didn't look too bad and I had to go get my hubby at work. I got caught in a white out that lasted for miles with no place to pull off. I couldn't even see the quardrails beside me.My wipers even froze up with snowballs on the ends.We ended up with around 4 inches in the 1 1/2 I was gone. It usually takes less than an hour to get where he works. This is the second one we've had in a week like that. There was a 2 hour delay this morning . Believe it or not the roads were good but it 3 degrees with a wind chill of -12.
    I really want spring to come. that groundhog better comply on Friday.
