cabin fever
we live in north Texas where there has been a cold snap and ice everywhere... our street and driveway are solid ice and have been for three days now.

we know how to drive in snow - but ice is another thing... not to mention our driveway is on an incline - so we could get out but getting back in is a problem.

the major roads and highways get lots of attention and may be driveable - just getting TO those roads is dicey.

i know it's nothing like the winter storms had up north... up north there's equipment to handle a lot of the weather and down here they don't know what to do.

just want to whine a bit - tired of being iced in.

RE: cabin fever
ice is our biggest problem here too. it hardly ever snows but when there's ice we're stuck - we ride a motorbike so no chance on the ice even if cars can manage. hope it thaws soon!

RE: cabin fever
hi
cabin fever, sounds like you need to be on a cruise ship Smile
although no ice or snow, we use a manual wheelchair, and get effected by the weather in so many ways as we are not able to drive (hope it is short term.)
It is currently thunderstorm crazy weather, fine sunny and hot then no warning of pelting freezinng rain and wind. Even the weather people can only guess because from one side of town to the other there are different extremes in one day.
hope your ice melts and the slush moves away easily and you are able to get out soon.
in the meantime, you can look at the pictures on Christmas cards of people being warm and happy in the snow (even on tv they don't seem to get cold!) hehehehe
