The Blizzard of 2017

That's right I said it. Maybe it's true, maybe it's not but at least some one finally said it. Let's face it people when it comes to the weather we may or may not have this weekend, everyone but God is clueless. Mickey Ferguson doesn't know, James Spann doesn't know, JP Dice doesn't know.... HECK! Their radars don't know either.

So... I am claiming The Blizzard of 2017. I've got my milk, I've got my bread (and no I didn't go crazy, I just needed them when I got groceries lol).

On the bright side. This will be my first time getting to play in the snow with my husband (if it actually snows). I know, I know.... sappy....

You know.... you chose to read this post..... why is that exactly...? I mean come on, you know I'm a newly wed. Anyway.... I see a lot of Chilli, Netflix, Coffee and Hot Tea in my future with my sweet hubby.

So... from my household to yours... CALM DOWN!!!!! It's all going to be okay. If you see a snow flurry just remain calm. If you are out and you can go home. Just slowly gather your things, return to your form of transportation, and make your way very very CALMLY back to your home. It will all be okay. Enjoy some time home with your family, a nice movie, a hot beverage and maybe a cozy pair of pajamas.

If the power goes out. Again, REMAIN CALM just take one of your many loaves of bread, pull the bread apart in a bowl and take one of your many gallons of milk, and pour it over the bread, then dig in:) That's what your supposed to do.... right...?

Yeah.... I'll just be over here with my nice bowl of hot chilli:) Stay warm everybody and remember.... STAY CALM.

Until the Blizzard is Gone,

Can I Just Say...IT IS FREEZING

Living in Alabama is really an experience wether you are like me and you've lived here all of your life or you're someone who has moved here. If you don't already know, the weather in Alabama is crazy, illogical and sometimes unpredictable. Monday and Tuesday of this week were nice and decently warm. However the last three days have been FREEZING. We go from 70 degrees one day to 20 the next. Somewhere in Alabama is supposed to get SNOW this weekend!!! S-N-O-W! THE WHITE STUFF THAT FALLS FROM THE SKY AND, sometimes, STICKS TO THE GROUND! Mom made a good point the other day, she said that she can't remember there ever being snow in November. TECHNICALLY we are still in the middle of Fall. THIS ISN'T WINTER. My kids at the day care are starting to get sick, kids are getting fevers and not "feeling good" through the afternoon and then another kid, and another and another and yes... another. It's like a never ending cycle of sickness and the only thing that breaks it is Summer. 

Now let me just say, I generally like Winter weather. However, as previously stated in posts before this one, I can not stand the sickness that comes with Winter. Whatever the kids get, I usually get it. Not to mention, I feel like the cycle of sickness is going to start off ten times worse because it was such a sudden and drastic change in temperatures. 

Some of you aren't going to like what I am about to say but it's okay, just take deep breaths and realize that I am not a weather person and there is still milk and bread in the stores.... well... as far as I am aware that is. I want it to snow. DON'T FREAK OUT!!! I don't want it to snow right now. Let's get past Thanksgiving before we actually start the snowy weather, but I do want snow. It would be nice to have snow right around Christmas:) Are you still breathing? You just un-followed my blog didn't you... it's okay:| Go ahead... go get your milk and bread, I'll wait....

You back? I knew you would be. Now I would like to make a suggestion. If it does snow, you should take the opportunity that you are stuck inside, assuming that it is the kind of snow that prevents travel, to really dig deep into God's Word with your family or by yourself. Don't get me wrong you should be doing that now and every day, but during the time that you would normally be heading to work or somewhere else, you should turn off everything that distracts and dig deep into the Word. Spend some time with Jesus, and even put on some music and worship Him in song:) Yes... IT IS FREEZING, but let's make the most of the freezing weather when ever we get the chance. You never know, God may make it snow to give you rest and to get your undivided attention on Him instead of the things of the world. Just remember, if it does snow, you can't control the weather so stop trying to think of how if it goes away soon you can still get to work. Thank God for the break, and honor Him. 

Am I thinking too far ahead... okay well, have an amazing day=P May the Lord bless you richly! STAY WARM!! =) Frost bite is real people!!!!!! ;)

Till next time....
