Snow angels!...Sledding, skiboarding! Enjoy! nm

Snow?! What snow? LOL I live in south...sm
Mississippi. We rarely have snow so I can't relate, but I think the snow is beautiful though. I tell ya, a couple of years ago my husband and I went to upstate New York during March or April, not sure now which. I froze to death. I seen enough snow to get my fill. It was a bitter cold too. I am not used to that. A cold front had come through so I don't know if it normally snows there that late in the year or not.
First off -- Angels have wings and could

have flown themselves there.  Secondly, if they could affrod a motel, they can afford a taxi.  Thirdly, why didn't they ask directions at the motel?  Why take the chance of not finding someone who could help them when the concierge desk would have the information readily available, would probably have called the taxi for them, and possibly may have had a shuttle service available to take them. 


You definitely did the right thing.  I'd be more worried about seeing someone else on the news who did give them a ride and ended up dead, rather than feeling guilty.


Angels passed by our home
only 2 months ago and my dad took his heavenly flight.

Only a God-called grandmother could love you as she did. The only way your grandmother could have ever share such love for you was first being loved by God. Paradise is her home!

My dad had COPD and was diagnosed with cancer in November of 2006 and sent home with hospice with 6 months to live. He passed away in less than 2 months.

He asked hospice to please not let him "smother to death." His last 2 weeks were exactly as you described. I had difficulty watching as he was administered morphine and Ativan because I knew the morphine would suppress his respiratory system even more. He was on oxygen but struggled with every breath. He began to conserve all his energy just to breathe. He was alert but spoke very little. He was given only water via sponge and all medications were stopped the week of his passing. My family and I were by his bedside the entire time, and every day he became more weaker. He asked that we pray that the Lord would come soon, and all this time I'm trying to convince my family that we needed to take a more aggressive approach (IV fluids and blood transfusion). Early morning on the day of his death he became unconscious. There was the most precious, sweet comfort and peace felt by everyone in the room at the exact moment my dad drew his last struggling breath and took his heavenly flight.

As 2 months have now passed, I realize the care he received was appropriate, and hospice was loving and caring. I just wasn't ready to "let my dad go."

May you feel God's presence in the sweet memory of your grandmother. Grandmothers are earthly angels from God.
Aw...poor little angels! And you tried so hard...nm

I don't believe they were angels. Sounds strange to me.

Hayseed how do you crop your pics? I'd like to add to the collection of animal angels here.
Or can I send you mine and you'll do it for me, pretty please? 
Not weird..old Czech glass perfume bottles, some angels, old

Hark the Herald Angels Sing on Charlie Brown's Christmas sm
I have the whole CD from Charlie Brown's Christmas and enjoyed it so much last year! Will start listening to it again this year after Thanksgiving :-)
City of Angels. I couldn't leave the theatre I was bawling so badly. nm

snow!!!
Hey, I'm in upstate NY too!  I am so excited.  I have been working from home for almost two years and I swear ever since then there has been no snow!!!  When I had to drive 30 minutes to work we got dumped on all the time!!  
snow
I live right outside Albany and we have only had an inch or so here and there.  Looking forward to staying home!
Snow
We have snow here in PA too. Started this morning and hasn't stopped.

They say it will snow until 6:00 p.m. Wednesday.

Schools closed early and some have called off for tomorrow already.
Snow
Mt. Mitchell State Park, just a little NE of Asheville, North Carolina, off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Had snow to my hip first week of May. May start falling early. Call to check.
Snow - still - nm

Snow
I live near Scranton, PA.  We have about 4 inches and school is canceled.
Snow, Oh, NO!
Nothing here yet in Upstate NY, but they are calling for 1-3 inches overnight. I'm not looking forward to this at all. My friends all laugh at me, once the snow falls, you'll never catch me outside unless it's absolutely necessary. On the upside, they're saying that for Halloween it's going to be 62. Very strange weather here.
Snow!
Hey yall! There is snow on the ground in South Texas (between Galveston & Houston).  I looked outside when starting my shift at 0200 & it is there....will probably all be gone by 10 though.....we almost never get snow here.
Snow...
You can definitely have the snow from WI.....If things continue on the way they have started we will never see green grass! I think it April before all the snow melted from last year!
snow

Wow that is a mess of snow.  I am originally from NY/NJ and I really miss the true meaning of a snow advisory.


Snow is melting....sm
Temp up to 55 today.  Hope you got in touch with your family!  Roads were good the day after.  It really wasn't as much of a storm as the media made it sound, as per usual.  Good luck!
As far as snow, it's been clear. But
as far as traffic goes in general, good luck. I live only about 45 minutes away and on a Saturday it can take hours to get in, especially bad at the tunnels, and parking is also the pits, can be very expensive, one time it cost me $40 for a few hours. Is there a train or bus you can take? Good luck and have fun!
Who has snow today? sm
Big snowstorm here in Ohio! It's been snowing nonstop since early this morning and isn't going to stop anytime soon. My husband's job even cancelled today! We probably have 4 or 5 inches already.
snow storm
It's headed our way tonight in Upstate NY.  We're suppose to get over a foot.  Tomorrow it is suppose to be snowing all day long.  It'll be one of those days when I REALLY appreciate working from home. 
snow in nebraska; sun is out now tho

Some snow in Philly
It's been snowing lightly for hours, but ground is barely covered. Expecting about 5 inches tonight, though. Haven't had any real snow this winter.
well I don't have snow, but apparently from the looks of it-
not much grass.  This time of the year it is easy to tell that I have a bumper crop of wild onions and they are a lot higher than the grass that is greening up.  I have daffodils, hyacinths and crocus.  How long until you see green?
Wow! Big snow last night
Have about 16 inches of snow this morning.  Sledding anyone? 
I hate snow too
I want to hibernate until the winter is over with.  Even my dog hates it.  We lived down south for a few years and now back up here.  I am ready to go south again. I am actually getting nauseated over it. My plans are to go back. 
snow music...sm

Enjoy!  Cat

At least someone here is enjoying snow
Jake thinks it's a real hoot!  I would too if I didn't have to scoop it all, reminds me to make my New Year's resolution AGAIN to get back into shape!!!
No snow here, but here is Bear.
Bear thinks he's found a bunny.  It's just a stuffie though. 
snow dogs
I once had a little black peke who would walk around with her flat little face in the snow. Your goldie is gorgeous!!
and the snow plow just went by. I have at least
3 inches on the ground. I guess I am going to have to shovel the driveway. Hope I can find the shovels. Arghhhh
I LOVE THE SNOW!!!

I am in GA also -- outside Atlanta -- and I love it.  I'm from VA and I have really missed the snow!!.  And it's so beautiful:  Big, fluffy flakes!!  We have about 3 or 4 inches and it is still snowing pretty hard!! 


Don't snow this again option either...or SHOW ;) nm..

MINIMAL SNOW IN COLORADO!
We have less than an inch - what a switch, huh?  I am in Colorado Springs.  We had our fill last month, though.  Hope everyone is safe and sound at home, typing away. 
No snow today in San Francisco! :D

Got 5" here...lots of snow this winter...nm

I'm in South too, last time we had snow was..

last time we had snow was Jan 1977....nm
 
Definitely snow in Denver tomorrow. sm

If you want to go "out west" try the coast of California.  No snow there, but snow in Colorado.


my neighbors waiting for snow outside
with a flashligh in North Carolina!!
Where do you live that it is snow weather?

It's been close to 90 almost all week here in central PA.  My DH loves snow and is ready to move north. 


It's snowing here - I love snow
Just thought I would share.  Anyone else getting snow today? I'm so glad I can sit here at my desk and watch it snow instead of being outside working in it.
I had thunder snow here today as well
in northeast Ohio. Got just enough to cover the grass so the pup could run around in it for the first time :-)
We got snow!!!!!! Yipeee!!! Its falling in big, big

My little kitty is outside chasing the snowflakes and hopping in it like a rabbit.  How I am supposed to work with this fun stuff going on outside?


 


Thank you God for nature's beauty and the critters we love.


 



Yuck - I can't stand snow
Or winter. I really don't know why I still live in the Northeast. We have a lot of snow (we had a snow day already yesterday). When it's winter I don't leave the house unless it is absolutely, positively necessary.
I like the light powder snow...sm
cause it's easier to shovel than that heavy wet snow....Do you shovel or does someone else do it for you?    Cat  
My boxer pup just loves the snow as
well; he is the first boxer I have had that I actually have to make come in the house. He runs and slides he buries his head in it, eats it, just has a gay old time. My golden who just died about 8-9 weeks ago loved snow as well, he would dive in and make doggie snow angels. :-)
We have lots of snow! I hope I did this right.
