Cabin Fever

So, according to The International (and every meteorologist on earth) this is the worst winter on record.  Like in ever.  Great timing for a transatlantic move, huh?  Today, we have about 30 inches of snow on the ground and it was -20 degrees Celsius (about -4 Fahrenheit) when we got up this morning.  And it is snowing more.  And it snowed all weekend long.  As a good Southern girl, normally I would be ecstatic at so much frozen precipitation back in the States......in my life there I taught school, and I am thinking we would be out 2 or 3 weeks with weather like this.  Here?  Um, life goes on.  Except for me, the girl who is nervous about driving in said snow.  *sigh*  So here I am.....me, 2 dogs, 2 little girls......snowed in for the 3rd day in a row.  If I don't get out tomorrow, I might be blogging direct from the looney bin.  Do you think they have facilities in the tropics?  I am thinking that would be a GREAT idea.......
