Israel cannot come soon enough

Went to bed last night and it was snowing, and its still bloody snowing now, we tried to get to Portsoy today but the car was having none of it, it just slipped and chased across the road, coming dangerously close to parked cars and on coming vehicles.  We managed to creep along at 10 mile an hour to get back to the house, and the Little Princes were collected by their Mother as there was no danger the car would have gotten them home.

The snow has been on and off all day long and we decided we had to make a dash for the shops to get supplies, now I say dash but realistically it was a crawl, using the back roads, as stopping on a hill lunch time was difficult enough.

The car park at the Local shops was like a churned up skate rink, but nowhere near as pretty and you couldn't see the lines, but we did meet lots of lovely Centre workers, who like us were trolley dashing for supplies.

Ok today a good friend has determined that I should be enjoying the snow far more than I do and has offered to tie me to a sledge and take me out to enjoy what the snow has to offer, there is no danger this is going to happen, I have since discovered I cannot get enough layers underneath my jacket and zip it up without looking like a sumo wrestler, and I will not be leaving the house until the weather improves.

The Lady flu is building and led me to sniff far to hard this morning dislodging what had been festering at the back of my throat nearly choking me to death. So attractive, I now have choices to make 1) I can cough myself into a fit like state or 2) continually drink White Wine to keep the cough at bay 3) stuff tissue up each nostril to stop drips 4) place a pelican bib under nose to catch drips. Decisions, decisions..... Wine and tissues it is then.

I really need to speak to some of my Offshore Wifes, I think I'm allergic to my Husband, my skin has decided to dry out to such a degree, I have a feeling that I will be shedding a snake like skin any minute, its obvious to me that close proximity to my naked husband has created a reaction, and not a good one, it can't possibly be anything else!!!!!!  Can it? I am hoping this can been seen as a positive, but only if when shedding my skin it takes a whole lot of lard with it.............and if it does, I'm all over that man of mine for the foreseable
