[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 224238, member: 1697"] it figures. Tuesday me and kids were standing in line for a food distribution and it was so windy and so cold and snowing like crazy........and the delivery truck turned out to be over 90 minutes late, while all 1,000 of us people waited in line outside i the cold. The distribution people came out and passed out blankets, sweatshirts etc to all of us that were wating......but goodness, I did not think we would ever feel warm again, even tho we all had 2 pairs of pants on and tshirts, sweathsirts and our coats and easy child even had feet warmers in her shoes..... Last week, I shoveled nonstop for like 6 hours to keep up with that snow becuz I cannot shovel it if it gains any depth..and with easy child preg.I want our drive clear. It was OK in daytime last week cuz it was not too cold......but once it got dark, whew......it took me 6 hours to feel my hands and feet again. of course tomorrow? UG.....husband has an appointment with veterans affairs independant examiner re an appeal on some of his benefits.....(this is very similar to soc sec independant evaluation) Higher ups pulled in favors to GET this appointment for us.....and if we cannot do this appointment....then the appeal could wind up taking 5 YEARS to go thru......they are hoping to do this exam and get a reconsideration instead........ BUT it is NOT close to home. and it is at 8 am. AND easy child has a ob appointment.....and they are FINALLY gijng to truly "examine" her, FINALLY (her first) and I will be with husband at HIS appointment....and daddy to be has to work from 11 tonite till 11 am.......so he cannot go with her.....and she has never been to doctor alone before, so she is upset and nervous.....and now will be going in crummy weather, too. and yeah we are north here, as far north IL as we can be and still be IL......and yes, they are sayng could be as much as 13 inches.....and another storm right behind it, and this weekend we are supposed to travel to the city for my family holiday. :-( Goodness, it just figures, I seldom have places we HAVE to be these days.......yeesh.
