the "S" word


It's really coming down here today.


The forecasters are scratching their heads on this one They'd said it would stay to the South. This what we woke up to. It's the windchill factor that has me inside. We are in the 2-4" snow band with some areas 8"+ we'll just have to see as the day progresses.

Ruby is doing ok. We've gotten her to eat a few cookies and she went outside for a little bit.

The wind is blustery at 25 - 35 MPH swirling the snow around; no sense in being out in it... even the mail can stay in the box till tomorrow. The Meclizine has helped with the dizziness. I've just upped the nausea meds maybe I can get into my Dr tomorrow, I am living on orange juice, chex mix, and popcorn.

Yeah, snow and blowing/drifting snow is not fun to drive in. You were wise to stay home today. We have snow forecast for most of next week and I am not looking forward to it.

I'm relieved to hear that Ruby is eating something and still able to go outside for a bit. She obviously has the will to live as long as she can so she can take care of you, Bret.

It got to 44F here early in the day, but then a cloud hid the sun, the SW wind started blowing like crazy, and the temp dropped to 37F and stayed there all day. I did go out and take the dog to the bark park, and then she went home to eat her lunch with me watching her. Most of the day I was plagued with low blood pressure 78/53, so I was light headed with sore neck muscles and poor vision. I did manage to stumble through the day and am feeling just all right tonight.

We are plummeting down currently 14 F...-10 C here but the wind has died down. As I told STR I been stoned most of the day. I did manage to scrub the kitchen and bath room floors I stood like an idiot not remembering how to drain the tank on the carpet cleaner,
