Just a little glimpse of what's on the news for us right this minute:

Oh, and also- the mayor just announced that all train/subway/trolley/and Bus services are SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY as of 7pm tonight.
He wants everyone to just STAY HOME! He has issued a driving warning that all non essential personnel need to NOT BE ON THE ROAD! Excellent.

Guess I'll go drink my body weight in good, strong, IRISH TEA!

LOL! "wow..your personality shines like a diamond kid..."
I do love your accent's.

Also....I was just thinking "who in their right mind eats strawberries on toast?!"..........but clearly the answer to that is extremely fancy people with pools in their gardens.

HAHAHAHAHA well, generally one would enjoy jam on toast, but I had gastric bypass surgery back in 2008, and since then I try to avoid excess sugar. Jam has lots of it, fresh strawberries not so much. I once weighed 350 pounds (158.757 kilograms) and am now down to a healthy 150 pounds (68.038 kilograms). But yes, I AM pretty FANCY! ;) Just ask GUS!
 
Holy moo-cow that's some snow! I am amazed at the amount of snow...I was in Boston last August, it was fantastic,...loved it, hard to believe you get bad weather. It's proper extreme, and everyone else cracks me up with the humour!
 
omg, well done! :D
You look brilliant! & OBVIOUSLY VERY FANCY! hahaha.

I'm in Canada and even our snow accumulation does not rival that of New England. Poor Boston. You're making all the headlines up here in the "Great White North". Thanks for the posts and the laughs. Congrats on your weight loss.

Here is my crazy daughter walking barefoot to the hot tub. I guess if we lived in Boston, our hot tub would be UNDER the snow along with our above ground pool, too! I guess I'll take the minus 25 degree temperatures over 200 cm of snow!

Yeah, we are hitting the 2' mark in MD, haven't had this much since the Blizzard of 2010! That was five feet dumped in one night, actually incidentally right after we got our guineas!

We are currently beyond buried under nearly 8 feet of snow, what with high winds & snowdrifts, life is pretty miserable & challenging. COME ON SPRING!
 
Sounds like my patrol beat, we get a lot of snow during the winter, and high winds throughout the year due to us being the second highest and one of the most exposed stretches of motorway in the country. On a bad day, we can have up to 10 wagons blown over like this one which landed on one of our patrol cars! :yikes:

THATS BRUTAL!
 
Yeah, we are having an odd winter here on the West Coast (Los Angeles), 70-80 Fahrenheit. I am getting annoyed of changing out of work pants into shorts when I get home :P Sorry @Mom2Gus had to rub it in.
 
:hmm:;)

It's ok... I'll remind you of said annoyance when I'm blissfully enjoying an earthquake free summer... What's the general rule of thumb? Stand in a doorway? Climb into the tub or get under a table?! I can never remember...?
 
That's a lot of snow! :eek:

It's very well insulated. The snow on the top doesn't even melt. Thankfully, we don't find that it is too expensive to heat either, so we keep it toasty and hop in over the snow when the mood hits us. It's a lovely thing to own. I didn't really care one way or the other when our house which we purchased came with it, but now I quite like it :tu:
