Where are all of the Midwesterners

[DoRaMe]

I am on a business trip back home to where else... Chicago!

Hahahahahahah! I don't mean to laugh but didn't London have a very snowy winter and now you are here?!

 

[kayte]

Fun of course it is... just imagine how big these drifts will be tomorrow with the 50 mph winds... then imagine how nice it will be to be inside with sometime on your hands...

Well that's if your stuck with someone you want to be stuck with

Good evening {{{{puno}}}}} Hope you are all warm and safe. This is quite a storm. I just want to tell you that is a very hot AV. Thank you.

 

[DoRaMe]

Wow, that wind really is blowing!

 

[kayte]

Hey, everyone. Hope you are all home safe and sound.

Yup....we have a snow day at school tomorrow. I am going to bake cookies for the class on Thurs, play on Lit for a while and read.

Hahahahahahah! I don't mean to laugh but didn't London have a very snowy winter and now you are here?!

Hi {{{{{DaRa}}}}

Take care sweetie. You guys are getting the worst of it! I mean it is bad enough where I am but it seems like Chi town is the bullseye for this storm.

 

[softkisses]

Covered in ice and desperately looking for a fun way to thaw out!

 

[kayte]

Buried in SNOW! And it won't stop falling!

Ah! I'm going to spend all day making a wonderful dinner tomorrow! Our classes have been canceled today and tomorrow as well! And to think, it's just snow!

But it is nice to have some time to breathe!

Good evening blackgrease ~ Nice to meet you. Enjoy your day off. That is quite a thread you have.

 

[kayte]

Hi softkisses ~ Welcome to the thread. I think we are all looking and hoping for that. Take care and keep safe hon.

 

[blackgrease]

Wow, that wind really is blowing!

It knocked me over into a snowbank on my walk home from work... Hahah

 

[DoRaMe]

Wow! Talk about adding insult to injury. Hope you didn't get hurt.

{{{{Kayte}}}} It has been a long time. Hope you are well and warm. It will all be forgotten if the Packers win on Sunday!!!

 

[Knot2Bad]

outside playing in the snow.. the wind... the cold...

 

[blackgrease]

True that Kayte, Go Packers! Though-- I am not allowed to profess this come regular season! Hope you have been staying well and toasty warm!

OUCH! Hope you are ok.

What a sweet thing for a Bears' fan to say. Of course if the Bears were playing the Steelers I be rooting for the Bears.

Keep safe hon. It is going to be a long, snowy, blizzardy night.

Good evening Knot ~ Welcome to Lit and to the thread. It is brutal. Keep safe and warm.

Grins at blackgrease.

Just as I couldn't profess a similar sentiment for the Bears in the regular season. But now, those of us in the NFC stick together.

Hope you didn't hurt your legs when the snow bank attacked you. You have said you are a runner.

Thank you. I'm in and will be in and warm through the duration. Until at least Thursday.

Hahahahaha!!!! I may live in the Chicago burbs, but I am not a Bears fan. I have been a Packers fan for over 15 years. It isn't easy either. The week of the Bears/Packers game I got booed in the school lunchroom. Of course I was wearing my Packers sweatshirt, my GB earrings, green and gold bangles and a cheesehead. It was all in good fun.

Of course! If the Packers win, of course.

OUCH! Hope you are ok.

I'm doing just fine! Trying to stay warm! Any suggestions?!

Well, moot point! We will be cheering together, come Sunday!

Not a Bears fan?! AHHHH! Well, I guess, at least you must make the Packers look quite good!

Hope you're all warm and safe! And having fun!

{{{{DoRa}}}}} That puts a smile on my face. Hope you are surviving the weather, the blizzard. It was nasty here and I'm sure worse where you are. I94 from the Milwaukee county line to the state line is impassible. You guys were right at the center of the storm. So I'[m sure it is really awful for you.

At least you didn't lose your job for supporting the Packers like that one man did, the car salesman. I think it was in the Lake Forest area. I'm hoping someone picked him up.

Take care sweetie.

thankyou for the welcome Kayte..... S.E. Wisc..... shouldn't you be a Bears fan ?

Good morning Knot ~ Hope you are getting all dug out from this mess. No I shouldn't. Now my father is from Elmhurst IL. He now lives in WNC and during the Packers/Bears game he wore his Bears hat and Packers sweatshirt. Guess he "goes either way!"

Keep safe hon

Good morning sassy ~ Welcome to the thread. I see you are in the healthcare profession. Please take care when you head out to work and on your return.

Keep as safe as you can.
