Marie Coyle I commented on this and hit the respond button...it disappeared. Only mentioning it in case the first comment decides to appear, maybe I did something weird. I am having that kind of day, anyway. That is a lot of snow, and now more is on the way? I hope you...

Not tomorrow or the weekend either. It like walking on an iceberg in front of my house. I had moved the car further down the driveway just to check if it would move..but I can't,t get to it. It is worse walking than the other...

Marie Coyle @snowy22315 Most definitely you do not want to fall on ice and be hurt. I've done that before, and it's not fun at all!

Oh, does Chuy’s taste good after ten days away!!! Thankfully, they were busy enough to not have to declare bankruptcy while I was out sick and snowed in. Here’s another person we lost in 2025 who is known for his...

Marie Coyle As you know, I am a huge history buff. I read his book, Five Days In November. Very good and it is from his own perspective, and worth reading. I was a little girl, but I remember moments from that day. Grandpa never cried, but he did that day, and so did...

Marie Coyle Oh, no...I am glad you are not going to attempt it and risk falling on the ice. But yes, if you need things, it wouldn't be imposing to ask the neighbor. Didn't you say they have a truck? Maybe they are going out anyway, and wouldn't mind picking up an order...

Which is silly, really, because if the old test I have doesn't test for the new strains, it's going to say negative again anyway. But this really "feels" like COVID to me. And maybe I test too early Tuesday where it wouldn't...

Marie Coyle Rather concerning as you are traveling soon, right? I know that no one wants to be sick on a vacation!

So our distract adds snow days into the calendar, but I have heard some public schools in states add days to the school calendar when they have snow days. I went to a private school (if you had seen our local public schools...

Marie Coyle @AmbiePam I can recall some snow days from grade school. Chicago does get big snows and that's where my early years were spent. Depending on where we lived, and how much snow. I also recall that in the 3rd or 4th grade, one of the bus drivers to my school had...

So, if you didn’t read my discussion yesterday, I’ll briefly recap: my childhood best friend’s dad is in the hospital. He was somewhat out of his mind (you can go back and read about it if you want), and has several health...

Marie Coyle @AmbiePam I think she was, too. I hope this is the end of it all, but the way you described the mother, I have to wonder just what else she will do in the future. All very concerning, and very sad.

Marie Coyle Oh wow. I would have thought that there would be more follow up. If you get down to the nitty gritty here, on one of the crash cart episodes if he had died,it could have been discovered that he had medication they didn’t administer to him, then an...

I mean we all knew that already. The faculty rooms haven’t had jugs of water for like 2 weeks. They “forgot” to order it. Um isn’t that something you just do every month. It’s not like the volume changes from...

Marie Coyle I think at this point you can all protest. Tell the person in charge that you can’t work without supplies. Good grief, enough already.

Marie Coyle This is absolutely incredible, coverage and care like that is pretty much unheard of these days. Especially adding in the medical needs and care. I know she is really progressing quickly and it's so sad to watch, she is no doubt so confused and scared at times...

A few weeks ago, I thought that the flu warnings were overblown and exaggerated. Evidently not. Our ER's are full--I mean, really, really full. The hospitals here or close by seem to be recommending that you not really go to the...

Marie Coyle @LadyDuck But sadly, those people in love with money seem only interested in having more and more money, that is their main goal in life. I don’t have money and if I did, I know I would first spend it on getting my son as well as I could first, but with so...

Marie Coyle @LadyDuck It helps so much to know that I can put some good food on the table for my son and myself in short order without much fuss or mess on a busy day. I don't know how I would manage without planning ahead.

Winter brings snow here, so of course I am used to it. This was an intense storm. We were not supposed to get what we did for snow totals--some say we got 8 inches, some 9 inches, some 10. I did the yardstick thing off the front...

Marie Coyle @LadyDuck It's not even in our forecast at the moment as to exactly when it will reach above freezing--but I do know that on the next 7 day's weather, we don't reach that point. The stuff that's on the ground is not going anywhere for awhile.
