Run into some old friends from another group or board? Want to do a little schmoozing, talk over old times? Or just some off topic stuff, then this is the place.
I meant I liked the Vikings, not your weather. 22 inches was dumped on us Saturday night. I hadn't slept all night for 2 nights and at 5:30 a.m. Sunday morning, I went out and helped my husband shovel his way out of the driveway. (I missed the SB because I had to go back to shovel after taking a long break and doing other things and I needed my car the next morning). I had to dig thru 4 inches of ice underneath the snow, sometimes beating at the ice with a lead pipe. I can't name a part of my body that still doesn't hurt. You know it's bad when your car is missing the next morning after a snowstorm because it's completely covered with snow.
We got about 3-5 more yesterday and are supposed to get 1-3 more today. Sigh.
Do me a favor? Keep your winter weather in Minnesota! LOL. I'll keep my love for the Vikings here. This is starting to remind me of the 1995-1996 winter in CT when we set a record of something like 113.5 inches of snow.

Sorry! But you can blame all the snow out east on my cousin Julie. She moved from Minneapolis to the DC area last July. So it's all her fault!
After hours and hours of shoveling, I found it. I haven't seen snow this bad since we lived in CT in 1995-1996 and got hammered, setting a new record of something like 115.3 inches. Anyone here who lived in CT during that time?
i lived in minnesota for 20 years. lightning storms, rain, tornandoes, snow, sub zero temperatures, 70 mph winds. everything.
now i live in SoCal and worry about earthquakes, fog, and 105-110 degree summers.
