Yesterday morning I set off on a walk with the dogs looking like this....

Last night I peeped out my front door and it looked like this....

When I thought that was bad enough this early this morning we were looking like this...

When I opened the front downstairs door we were met with this...

the back door on the first floor opened up to this... my poodles were like WHOA!

and here I am thinking ... this is going to be a lazy family day ... languishing in front of the fireplace with a book/my laptop my doggies and my family...

or I may just rock my poodles and my ferrets...

and now the work begins to dig ourselves out from under the blanket of snow .... and wait for the streets and highways to re-open and the snow plows to come ... our streets and highways are closed until further notice still...

I am going out there to help my son shovel ... it will be an awesome exercise routine for the day ... after all six years ago I could not even dream of doing that ... but with 203 pounds lost and kept off ... I am ready ... I think ... the only thing that may stop me is ... BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR IT IS COLD!!!!

Makes me cold just looking at it.  Stay safe and warm inside today.  Cuddle up with your little buddies and make a big pot of soup!

GRACIAS!!! The travel ban has been lifted but we remain buried with not a plow in sight .. it is now 9:49 pm... I am grateful for warmth, no power outage and the awesome peeps in our neighborhood helping each other out ... it would be nice to have the streets plowed though in case of emergency ... but patience first... they will eventually get to all...

Your poor doggies are like "I don't THINK so!!"
My dogs hate any kind of weather, unless it's sunny and 70 degrees. Yep, they are spoiled!!
