Good evening. As Arctic temps and snow grip much of the country, I pray for all those who travel and have to spend time outside.

Also remember the many affected by the economic woes this season...anecdotal stories we're all hearing bring the statistics to life, and add a somber theme to the time which is usually so joyful.

Sometime ago, my trusty shredder gave up the ghost and quit doing it’s duty. I got one yesterday and it is a whiz. When it shreds, it’s better than the one hillary used when she had all those records shredded. This one cuts the paper up into less than 1/4” pieces, it looks like tiny confetti and scatters the pieces all over the bottom of the container.

I thought you weren’t feeling well with a cough and a sinus malfunctioning. Why are you going outside and prolonging your 2 conditions? The slush, snow etc will be there when you’re feeling better.

You are SO VERY RIGHT!! The snow and slush will still be there the first of April if I don't get it removed when I get the opportunity. Today was a 45 degree GIFT. We may not get another day like this until late February.

It is just incredibly dangerous to leave that stuff out there, and no one else in my family seems to have the least bit of interest in getting it removed. If it's going to happen, it will be because I take the initative to get it done. That's just the way things work around here.

We got 4 more inches of global warming last night, which brought the total for Dec. up to about 40", which officially put us over the top, record-wise; snowiest December ever.

......and second snowiest MONTH ever.

......and you're right re: the slush; one extremely cold winter we had frozen ruts in our driveway, sidewalks etc. for months. No fun. Hubby was out "cleaning up" today also.

What can I say???? Bless your heart. It’s usually the women in the family that take care of the necessary things. Anyway...Take Care of Yourself...What if you spread some fertilizer over the driveway?

There was about 6 inches of snow on top of a 2 inch layer of ice, which had sealed another 4 inches of snow down.

So it was quite the mess, and far too deep for any type of snow melt to work really well.

I emailed my sons a couple of hours ago to inform them that I am scheduled for an MRI on Monday. Perhaps they will take pity on me and finish the job tomorrow. (altho I am not holding my breath)

Good morning. Hope everybody had a nice Christmas, we did around here.

Jemian, please pass my thanks along to JT again. “We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.” - Winston Churchill

Hope everybody that’s under the weather is feeling better today.
