It has been snowing hard here all day. The weather forecast says it is going to change to freezing rain soon and continue for about 12 hours, then heavy rain tomorrow. I haven't been out since Sunday and it looks like I will be staying in today and tomorrow as well. But I am not bored, I can always find something to do.

I had to drop my girls off at preschool, and pick them up. Thankfully, it wasn't too bad. But I'm certainly not planning on going back out today. Not unless I really have too.

@AnneEJ I didn't realize it was opening tomorrow. That's good to know. I'm hoping that the weather tomorrow will be better.

There is probably a lot of ice under that snow and with the winds, I am sure it would be quite slippery walking. I hope it will be okay to go out tomorrow. The new Walmart is opening on Hymus. It will be nice to have one closer than Kirkland

Hard to imagine the weather you're experiencing in Quebec. It is all warmth and sunshine here in Southern California.

@sugartoes Have you figured out a way to bottle or can it?

Yes it is nice to be able to stay in. I need to get off here, though and do something more productive from my to-do-list

I am the same way, I do not have a need to go out when its miserable out. Although this morning I did have to set my alarm and be out of the house early for my day off. I had a doctor's appointment, and then I stopped in and visited with a niece and her almost one year old son. I love being that close to a niece, she's something special.

Stay home safe and sound. The weather here is kind of similar to yours.

It is very windy here as well. I see the snow is getting finer, so probably will be changing soon

Good that you can always find something to do! I like that attitude. We do get bored because it is our choice and I hate choosing it.

You are right, we choose our attitude each day. I see a lot of things I want to do, just have to make up my mind to do them.

I do work on the computer for my daughter, do embroidery work, read, do puzzles, watch videos, and of course, there is always housework to do.

I wouldn't want the freezing rain. No outdoor activities when that occurs. I hope the weather gets better.

This week looks like the same thing, but we are hoping after that it will change.

We were lucky and only received the rain and high winds. It wasn't quite cold enough for snow here.

@AnneEJ That is the bad thing about freezing rain and high winds, there is always a chance of power outages. I'm glad to hear that yours was only out for a short time.

We got everything and the freezing rain and winds caused a lot of power outages in our area. Ours was only out for a few hours in the night.

We are looking for a rain to cool our climate. But it is really horrible to hear from you that stay in side a house two three days.

I have a nice bright apartment, so I often stay in for days at a time. When the weather is good, I usually go for a walk. Won't be going out again today

Thankfully we are suppose to have sunshine through the week, next precipitation day is late Saturday into Sunday, hoping that blows over us. I'm ready for warmer weather and no snow or rain. At least for a little bit. The snow is nearly melted here thankfully.

I am sure that once it rains tomorrow and temperature rises, all this new snow will disappear along with a lot of the old.

Good time to do some cleaning or re-dust an old book shelf or two. I hibernated in November and will not be coming out until May or so. I don't go out anyway so it is not a problem to be inside for that amount of time. Social anxiety helps it along some too.

I understand a bit more now why people talk about 'cabin fever'. I stay inside quite a bit but I have plenty of choice in the matter.

I still have some videos I received for Christmas to watch, and lots of books to read, so the time goes fast. Of course a lot of my time is spent on here

Better to hibernate than to be out in that weather.

It is too dangerous walking out there, and I certainly don't want to drive today.

You are not bored right? may be your schedule is also allowing that, if you might have an important event to attend like I do(attending the college for exams), it could be even more frustrating.

Yes, I feel sorry for the people who have to go out no matter what the weather. I remember what it was like when I was working.
