Snowmagged 2011....We survived

We survived the snow storm of 2011 with about 10 inches in Flint.  I think the whole 10 fell in my driveway alone.  We never lost power and thanks to kind heart of my dear, sweet hubby, my parents and uncle were okay too.  Pam, my sister, helped my parents out too by staying the night with them and then getting up and helping shovel them out.  I was very grateful she was there.  I'm not much use to anyone on the backside of a shovel, but it used to be my favorite winter activity.  Seriously, I used to love to get out there and shovel, especially when I was a kid.  Of course, I was much younger and stronger then.  Now, the weather report is calling for more snow later in the weekend, but nothing like what we got the other day.  So glad everyone was okay.  Hope ya'll survived without any problems either.

Snowmagden 2011

Well, it's here.  For all those naysayers who said it wouldn't happen, the snow is flying here in Michigan and we're not going anywhere today and probably tomorrow and Friday too.  Sarah and I are staying warm and dry while poor Jim is out in this mess helping my parents and uncle.  Thank goodness for 4 wheel drive.  He's tough though and these Michigan winters don't bother him.  I grew up here but I think I would do better in a much warmer climate.  I'll keep ya posted as to our total snowfall amounts.  I pray the power doesn't go out!!!
