Day #31 and Winter Continues...

Winter Storm Warning, (three words I am not very fond of). They are forcasting anywhere from 4-10 inches of snow with a light glazing of ice!  As I was coming home from taking the kiddies to school with freezing drizzle actually freezing to the windshield, my windshield wiper decides it doesn't want to be on the windshield any longer.   Luckily my good friend hadn't left for work and was able to fix it!  YEAH!  Hubby stocked us up on milk, eggs, and firewood.  What a combo, huh?   Think I have has just about enough of this winter weather.  Wonder if I could find Hubby a job somewhere warmer? 

Still trying to come up with something to make in the electric skillet tonight with chicken.  Why chicken?  Because it was the first thing I grabbed out of the freezer.  I'll get back with you when I find something...found it!
