Oh no!!

  • I woke up to snow this morning - NO! I don't want you at the moment - please go away.  Bitterly cold again, but as I type this, the sun is peeping through the clouds so, hopefully, it will all start to melt away.  It's amazing how we just can't cope with snow in this country at all, and everything, including all transport links, seems to come to a grinding halt.

  • The mother cat of the little kitten.  Does she look pregnant to you?!

I must go now and get the suitcases down from the loft.  Then decide what I am going to take with me - obviously something pretty warm!  I'm afraid with all the travelling I've done, I just can't seem to get the hang of travelling light, and there's always the worry that when I plonk my suitcase on the scales at the airport, lights are going to start flashing to tell me that I'm over the weight limit!

It's cold here in South, Georgia this morning, too! Brrrrr!!! No snow, tho. We don't know how to deal with it either, so I know what you mean! :) I must have missed a post. Where are you traveling to? France? I am not a light packer, either! I always think I will need more than I ever really use. Be careful out there in that snow!

Hi Becky. Yes, I mentioned about my travels in the one before you commented on, called "Getting Excited!". Make sure that you keep nice and warm over there !

Snow looks pretty and not very much so maybe it won't slow you down much. Yes she looks pregnant.
Be careful and enjoy your time away. We'll be waiting.

haha! It's been snowing here since yesterday. I hate it. I'm not ready for winter. In fact, I'm never ready for winter. I need to move.

I do not deal well with snow either. I once got trapped in the hospital and had to work for about 18 hours and sleep four and then start over again because of snow. I learned to pack light after dragging a large suitcace all over Italy...will not do that again. Have a lovely trip. merry♥O

Thank you Gawgus, Becky, Jumble,Col, Olive & Odie. The flights from Exeter to Paris were cancelled today :(, so all our hopes are pinned on getting away tomorrow!

Teresa said...

Belle said...

I hope your flight won't be cancelled. Good luck with that. It has been snowing off and on here for quite awhile, but of course Canadians are used to it.

Snow is the main reason we left New England and moved south. Now I complain when it's less than 70 degrees outside...haha. I sat on the beach today with the sun on my face, jeans and sweatshirt. How often can you do that in December?

Oh goodness,the Italian news and FB friends have let us know that the UK is mainly SHUT so do hope you managed to get away and are now enjoying a cold but sunny Paris.

Southhamsdarling said...
