I'm stuck.....


...on top of a mountain......watching snow tornadoes whizz by in the hollow below....!!
What's with this wind..??
The snow i can handle......the wind.....not so much....!!


Of course the workaholic went to work.....
In 16* temps......winds gusting up to 45mph....
making the "real" temp somewhere below -5*..!
He bundled up ..... heavy coat....two shirts....long underwear.....gloves.....yak trax....flashlight.....extra shoes in a bag and coffee cup in hand.....

Down he went...to the SUV he parked at the bottom of the drive yesterday morning....
He's doing a double shift today and loving it.....

.....WORK.....

Someone needs to tell him......it's a four letter word...
and should be eliminated from the English language...!!

Just my opinion...!

Enjoy

  3. Men and their work is almost as bad as men and their toys..It's hard to tell them anything. You at least are in where it is warm and cozy. Have a wonderful Monday!

  4. It's even worse if he's one of those who then comes home and complains about how hard he had to work.

    Glad you're smart enough to stay home and enjoy the fact that while the winds are howling, you're safe and warm inside.

  5. I think I'd rather be "stuck" than working. lol We had snow here but it was not too bad on the roads. Some icy spots here and there. Hope you enjoy the indoors and keep warm! Happy New Year to ya if I'm not back on here by then.

  8. Your storm sounds like a doozy. I guess the good thing is that since he had to work that he wanted to.
    Stay warm and enjoy the pretty parts.
