It seems weird to hear that people have no snow, we had another inch overnight!
The last time it was so bad was 1981 :eek:
Both kids schools are shut today so we're in for another snow day!
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

Morning all
Hope you're all OK and those that want snow get some :cool:
We've had an eventful morning so far here in Spudland.
DH got home as far as outside the house but couldnt manage to get the car on the driveway. I legged it out with me spade in PJs and wellies (that's a look that'll catch on) to try and help. So we dug and dug at the snow, then decided to have one last try. I was in the car, DH pushing. Anyhoo, he pushed really hard, the car moved and he fell flat on his face for the third time in as many days 
The cold and effort triggered me to have an asthma attack too, so much wheezing, gasping and puffing on inhalers.
Still loads of snow to try and clear, but I'll got out in a bit and do that :rolleyes:Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:
