DH is supposed to go to work in about an hour, and they called him and told him to stay home.

I live in Springfield, MO, and the news just announced that westbound 44 is closed at the 69 mile marker. We had ice/sleet for about an inch, then 3 inches of sleet/snow and then the rest is snow so far. The last time our area was under a Blizzard Warning was when the pioneers crossed the plains. Now the winds are whipping 25-45mph, creating drifts. Now we have the dangerous wind chills. I am so grateful that to be retired where I can stay home and sew.
