Joni, Southern Ill. is right there with you and where I live in C. Il. hasn't been that far behind. It was a small blessing in deguise that I was victim to one of those flu bugs going around the week before last. (UGH!) Two different fronts came through....the first one had more sleet..... I made it to the doctor, got home, and literally slept my way through the first 4 days. Soooooo thankful I didn't have to drive. However, this past week.......if it had not been for the 4x4 truck (borrowed from my Dad) I would not have made it home! The highways were terrible! I cut through the backroads to cut travel time down. When weather is like that I do it because there is ALWAYS those risk takers who drive as if the pavement were dry!!!! I'd rather take the risk of getting through the hills and hollers just to avoid being hit and in a pile up. I have to admit though this last one.......there were a couple of roads I thought to myself....."You're nuts!" LOL ("Jesus take the Wheel" by Carrie Underwood.......that was me. LOL And how grateful I am for the help to get home.) I AM SO READY FOR SUMMER! Wanda
Looking out my kitchen window...Anyone for a bbq!!!!

LOL... I knew I should never have left FL in January.....
I did get my car dug out today... feeling a lot older than 36 now, as a result!! I went to the store, after being cooped up for 72 hours. Felt good. Carry on!!
I know Phil is laughing at me and calling me a whimp probably, as in Canada, this is the norm... LOL
Joni
