Hubby is out plowing again. He came home about 8:30 or so last night and went out again about 8 am. It’s now 1:30pm and he’s still out there.
I went out and cleaned off my car but that was as far as I could get. I can’t get to the drivers side of the car because of all of the snow and I don’t have a shovel. Hubby still has to finish plowing the driveway right behind my car so I can get it out. I’m glad I have enough stuff to last another day or two.
Enjoy the day after pictures below. The 1st 3 are the neighbors from yesterday… the 2 kids and parents. They built a snow fort out of snow and in the last one they built a snow slide. Now that looked like fun!
The ones below are from today when I was out cleaning off my car. A few show the camper covered in ice and the one showing the sky and trees. If you look closely at the trees you can see the snow blowing. I thought that was a neat shot!
We are getting a blizzard. There is at least a foot of snow on the ground.. probably more (I didn’t go out to measure it). I got as far as opening the door and sticking the camera out to take some pictures. Enjoy the snow… I’m sure not! lol
We have a blizzard warning for later today through Saturday night and people are going crazy buying up everything in sight. We could have up to 2 feet of snow! Shoprite is jam packed and there isn’t a parking space to be found. Their POS systems must be going at a record rate.
I needed to go there today but decided to stay away. I’m not going into that store and fight all those people for 1 thing. JoJo is getting low on her food but I think there just might be enough to last through the weekend. If not I do have a can or two of canned food I can give her. I’m glad I got food on Tuesday!
My grand daughter is 13, soon to be 14, and her dad told her she could dye her hair if she wanted to. Well… she did and it’s PINK!!! Well, not all of it is pink but the front is. I know when she was little she always said she wanted purple hair but I didn’t expect this.
Actually it really doesn’t look bad.. it just makes her look so different.
Judge for yourself…
Ever since I had my spinal fusion surgery a few years ago I’ve had tingling in my legs. The tingling slowly developed into twitches. The twitches now make my whole body jerk. I’m fine when I stand, but I can’t stand for long periods. The happens mostly when I sit certain ways or when I’m laying down. It’s more of an annoyance than anything. The doctors have told me that I’d most likely end up with permanent nerve damage and I guess this is a side effect of that damage.
It must look like, to other people, that someone came up behind me and poked me and made me jump. It doesn’t happen when I’m sitting in the car driving thank goodness… that could be a huge problem. I jerk so hard that I’d probably end up crashing the car. It’s like when you’ve just fallen asleep or are almost asleep and you get that “I’m falling” feeling and you jump and wake up.
It’s only on my right side, which is the side that was injured in 2001 that caused me to have 2 back surgeries. And it’s just the strangest feeling too. I can feel it coming. It starts with a tiny fluttering feeling just above my foot. It moves slowly up my leg and it gets to a certain point and then BAM… I jump/jerk. Just so very annoying. It will happen several times in a row then go away for awhile then I feel it coming back again. It’s a viscous cycle… calm, twitchy, jerky, calm, twitchy, jerky.. rinse and repeat!
It’s that time of the year that everyone makes resolutions that they either have no intention of sticking too or they just set their standards too high to be able to keep the resolution. What are your resolutions for 2010? I have just 2. I resolve to find a job this year and find a place to live, other than this camper.
I have officially been unemployed for a year now and the economy has made it very hard to find another. Money has been horribly tight and even with great shopping deals that abound this time of year Christmas shopping, for me, was practically non-existent. I always try to compare shopping prices when I shop online…. it’s just the smart thing to do.
I am really looking forward to becoming employed again and feeling back to normal. I just feel so disconnected with everything right now. I need to get my life back to normal, get a place to live, get our things out of storage and start really living again.
Our daughter, her boyfriend and our 4 grandkids will probably be living with us so we will need a nice sized house along with a freezer so we can stock up on things when they are on sale. I would also love to find a place that has nice, new stainless steel appliances. That would be my dream.
I hope all of my readers have a healthy and prosperous New Year!

We got buried under over 12 inches of snow yesterday and last night. We still have a few snow showers here and there and yesterday we even had thundersnow!
Andi’s boyfriend is going to come over and clear off my car and dig it out. They need to use the car to go to Pennsylvania today. I would do it but my boots are in storage and all I have to wear are a light pair of sneakers!
Hubby is out plowing and has been since early yesterday morning. He did get home about 3:30 am this morning and got a couple hours sleep but he was back at it about 6:30 this morning.
These pictures are a huge difference from the pictures in the post a couple posts down.
