for the Columbus and Franklin county area.
Said it should start snowing in the next hour,
around 9:15am.
Oh goodie, about the time I have to leave
for the doctors.
At least the kids don't have school today
and don't have to worry about getting to
and from school with this snow coming.
I've had enough of snow already!
It's gonna take a long time for all the
snow and ice hills to melt from the plowed snow.
Then will come the big thaw.
Thinking of all the mud tracked in the house
and onto a whitish gray carpet.
Ahhhh! I don't even put the carpet cleaner
away anymore as I use it too much.

IS IT SPRING YET!!!???
Here's some icicle pics I took yesterday.
Lots of icicles hanging from all the houses around here.
In one photo you can see the ice jam forming
above the gutter.
We've had water dripping in one of the
bedroom windows because of it.
Now I keep a towel on the window sill.

Just back from the doctor's.
The snow is just starting to fall and collect
on the streets once again.
Didn't really accomplish a whole lot today.
I have to make 3 more appointments:
1. Pap, Pelvic and another urine test to test
for protein since that was evident when done
at an earlier Urgent Care visit.
2. GI appt. GI means Gastro Interology.
A specialist doctor for the digestive system.
My doctor said they could recommend a colonoscopy.
Oh boy gee. I have that image in my head now of
how that would go, ahhhh!!
3. And I have a referral for Physical Therapy for
my back pain. At times I can hardly get out of bed
or bend over without severe pain!
Then will get another check up for cholesterol,
and things of that sort.
Then at the end of the year a mamogram.
IT SUCKS THAT I WILL BE 40 IN NOVEMBER.
ALL THE ACHES AND PAINS AND DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENTS
THAT COME WITH IT!!

KITCHEN TIPS
Instead of using store bought plastic bowl
covers or even plastic wrap a cheaper way
to cover your bowls is by using cheap
shower caps.
They works just the same as the Saran Quick Covers
seen here on one of my bowls. I got them free and
that's the only reason I have them.
I also have the shower caps.
My next tip is to save those empty coffee containers.
I save the metal ones for hubby to keep his nuts
and bolts in.
The plastic ones I used to store dry goods in such
as rice seen here.
If they are designed to keep moisture out of coffee
then they will surely keep moisture out of rice,
beans and so on.

GARDEN TIP
using Christmas lights.
- WARMING TRAY
For those of you who decide to start your
seeds indoors:
Instead of purchasing an expensive warming mat
for your starter trays take recycled plant trays that have the drain holes and place them in a plastic tub or flat tray so water can drain. Place the tray on Christmas tree lights(cost=$1). The lights give off enough warmth to germinate the seeds.
Or another idea is to set your seed tray on top of
your refrigerator.
That won't work for me as I have too many trays.

The snow keeps falling and hasn't let up.
Peeked out the window to see the neighbor
across the street snow blowing our sidewalk
for us.
Hey he's wearing a New York jacket.
Upstate NY isn't getting all this snow
we've been having. I'll be sure to send
them some! Don't want them to miss out!
I have yet to see the township's snowplow
go down our streets. Usually they are
right on top of this stuff.
Somewhere under all this snow is grass
waiting to pop it's little blades up!!
VISIBILITY IS DOWN TO ABOUT ZERO AT TIMES WITH THIS SNOW!

He also stated that on his way home from
work (Honda plant) that he helped several
people in ditches and that were stuck.

Just ventured out into the Winter wonderland tonight
for the first time since it started snowing.
Here's a few photos and videos.
This first one was of a couple cars sitting
next to us at a red light. Columbus driver's scare
me and here is a few good reasons why...
The car in front did not brush off his rear window.
So he didn't even notice that the high beams
were on in our truck, lol.
Oh but it gets better. This person directly next to us
at the red light was completely unaware that I had
my window down and was taking a picture of his car
when we were only a couple feet away. Wonder
why he didn't see me??? Scary thought that people
are driving like this huh!
Christopher just as he got out of the truck.
The snow is up to his knees.
I have boots that almost go up to my
knees and they got snow in them, BRRR!
AND I WONDER WHY THE KIDS DO THE THINGS THEY DO!!!
-------------------------------------------------
Not only do the driver's in Columbus scare me
but the walkers as well!! This video shows
a road that is typically 35 mph. It is now
covered in snow and ice and it's harder for
vehicles to stop. So what do these folks do?
I need to write a book called:
"You Might Live In Columbus If"
------------------------------------------------
What is it with the New York thing today?
First the guy in the New York jacket and now
a song on the radio when I made this video.
I know, I'm trying to jinx NY into getting
some snow at the moment, LMAO!
------------------------------------------------
Ok I have babbled on long enough for one day.
That's what happens when you are cooped
up inside for too long.
I did find 4 deals tonight at kroger.
I'll post them tomorrow for everyone to see.
1 item free
1 item almost 90% off
2 items 50% off
So I'll leave you in suspense for now :-P
