It's 15 below zero today and the ice fog must have swept through last night because everything is white. I'd take snow anyday over this kind of cold. Have to keep the fire going for anything below 10 degrees, DH is neurotic about saving the fuel oil and keep the humidfier filled. Well everyone have a good day or what's left of it for you, it's 10am here and I really, really, really have to get something done.

Hi all, I'm so glad the chat is back. Am flaring terrible at the moment. Go to work, come home have a cry, go to bed. Came home from work today and hubby and son had done the cleaning. Boss was lovely and supportive, made me cry. Have an appt next week for some pain relief, I dont like to take anything unless I have to but I think I'm going to have to change my attitude on that.
Edinburgh doesnt have snow, although its trying, temperature at 0 degrees so pretty chilly.
Shannon, Finley is such a great name for a dog... all Scots would approve.
Pammy, your neighbour obviously doesnt have a life of his own, he sounds like a curmugeonly old bugger.
Thoughts and hugs to everyone who has family in iraq, we have friends in helmand and are watching the news with baited breath.

I know what ya mean about being cold! We are in the middle of an ice storm, everything is getting coated with ice, and then the wind is supposed to pick up to 40-50 mph tonight. That means we'll have downed trees and power lines. We are trying so hard to conserve heating oil. I have my thermostat set on 62 and we are just bundlling up. Winter is NOT my favorite time of year.
Pammy, so sorry to hear about the nasty neighbor. I think all of us know what that is like!

Life shouldn't be a journey to the grave intending to arrive safely in an attractive well preserved body; instead skid in sideways, body all worn out, screaming "WOO HOO!, What a ride!

you are sooo right Sarah. He is a single guy in his mid 50's whose mother lives with him. He is unemployed and spends his days at the library chatting on line with people who travel to Bali because he has been there a few times. (Don't even get me started on that one) I don't know what he does with his time, he has plenty of it. When Mark suggested that he volunteer somewhere to get out of the house and get the employment poeple off his back he says....and I quote " No way, I'm not going to do something for nothing!" He is alreading doing nothing and getting a pension for it. lol

Personally I am looking very forward to next week when the temp is supposed to get up near 40. I know it's colder elsewhere but as far as I'm concerned, when you get below 10 it doesn't matter. It's too darn cold. You know it's been bad when even 20 starts looking good.
Wills, i am always wondering how someone goes to work when they are flaring. My ankle is all swollen (and painful) right now and I can hardly walk. How do you manage??

In his 50's and lives with mummy... there's really no more to say. You are right, I'd rather have my son and his friends at the house safe and boisterous than god knows where and not safe. He's obviously taking his frustrations out on you guys.... he's probably not getting any lurv hee hee
