"JUMP BACK, LORETTA!!!"

Hole-ee crap! I can't even imagine...

I miss the snow, we haven't had a good snowstorm in OKC for the past 2 years. Of course, the few years before that, we had really severe ice and snow storms which are unusual for us. Dangerous, but fun--that's what's winter should be about.

I'm there with you in spirit, sitting here with Weather Channel video running on my phone (I love listening to the weather reports when it's bad).

Stay safe!!!
