Ok Is this EVER going to STOP!!!!

Well, it is 2:18 Friday afternoon and the first of three storms have hit right now!

It is supposed to snow all day until tomorrow and then on Sunday and Monday, up to 24" of new snow! YIPPEE!!! Good thing I went to the store (so did everyone else) and get supplies for this weekend. Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. We are going to have Kim and Daryl over and the menu will consist of: Steak Oscar (filet Mignon, Asparagus and crab with a Bearnaise sauce over it) Potato Anna, and a beautiful Black Forest Trifle, which I am in the process of making today so it will sit overnight.

I have taken pictures of the process, if I get to it, I will post pictures.

It's cold outside, windy, wet and ucky!!!! I am staying in the house!

More SNOW!!! February 9th

Andy Shoveling us out of the SNOW
My snow boots
Boogers on my horse's nose!


Snow Snow Snow! Snow!!!! They said there were three storms coming into Southern California, they said we were going to get snow, it never stops amazing me! School is called due to the snow, All highways are closed, 330 due to a snow slide, 38 closed and 18 has to have chains with 4 wheel drive....Cal Trans has stopped plowing due to the amount of stupid people on the road so now they have put a R3 condition Chains required on ALL cars and trucks!

I have decided to look for spring stuff for my garden and for new patio furniture, just wishing for spring! Wishful thinking!

You will see the amount of snow with pictures I have taken, more storms to hit this weekend, I want SUSHI!!!! Burrrrrrr,,,,,down to 16 tonight! CRAZY!!!

Stop this train

Forgive me for being sentimental...being around people you absolutely love and know they love you back...for a moment you own the world then when you realize it is only for a moment, this song by John Mayer says it all: Funny, I never really listened to the words until I was home sick with the flu yesterday. I changed only four words in the song, but it truly reflects what is me....


No I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my Pop
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn eighty-six
You'll renegotiate

Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
And don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
Jeanine, honestly we'll never stop this train "

Once in a while, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I'll never stop this train


So the conclusion, Enjoy the ride! This is for my family, love you all! Thank you for all the fun we have and the memories we make (see what happens when I am sick?!)
