I wanna stay home......

Once again, the weather is turning yucky. Freezing rain is in the forecast, and I'm choosing to stay home tonight. I'm in my sweats and wool socks, which is what I sleep in in the wintertime. I have the Weather Channel on. I don't get CBC, so I can't watch Hockey Night In Canada. :(

Does the Weather Channel give Mike Seidel hazardous duty pay when they send him out across the country to cover storms?

You must be next in line for our weather. When I started out to go shopping, about 4 p.m., it had just started sleeting. By the time I got to Kohl's, had no luck, and left, the streets were starting to get nasty. Now it's snowing... big thick wet sticky flakes. Whee.

Sometimes I think Mike Seidel gets his kicks out of covering the big storms. Last year he was at ground zero for so many hurricanes that Tom and I joked that they were looking for him. :-)

He missed landfall for Kartina but not by much. Gulfport Ms (where he was located) got a serious thumping. My mother grew up there and was shocked when she saw the after storm pictures. Whole streets of homes were gone.
