I spent the holiday season with my parents in Bellerose. I was there during the December 16-17 event in which Bellerose got 7.6" while my area up in Albany got 22.9."

Now I am back in Albany and my folks in Bellerose are poised to get 18-24" of snow while I am set to get 6-10" here.

Just can't seem to get the big one.

Ugh. I feel for you. On the bright side, if you get 6-10" that's a pretty big snowstorm. Imagine if Albany was only getting a coating or a couple inches. In fact, if it weren't for the outrageous totals being spit out by the models in this storm, I'd consider 6-10 a big storm in these parts. lol

How do you like the charter schools. I'm personally not a fan, at all.

I’m giddy like a child right now. May be up for the next 48hours.

This morning on Facebook, I used a term we have used here for years, "puking snow".

I got emojis ranging from crying, care, and a few laughing ones.

Most were the sad ones. I forget that not everybody is a "snow weenie". Comments were almost like I lost a loved one, condolences.

Who raised these people?

I just want to note that in the middle of one of the biggest snowstorms to hit the Northeast corridor in years, the Weather Channel just did an interview with Punxsatawney Phil and his handler. Actually more the handler. Phil said little.
That is all.
