Winter Weather . . .

My question to everyone is . . . Is there anything good that comes from this cold, snowy, yucky weather?? It snowed all day yesterday and the roads got icy and horrible, wrecks everywhere, and now I feel the cough and cold coming on!!! Matt and Kason have both been sick the last week. Kason with a deep chest cough, and Matt with a bad bad sore throat that made him lose his voice. I was staying safe and keeping my distance and I thought I did it!! I stayed strong and not sick all week. UNTIL . . .this stupid weather started up!! Now I have the sore throat and the runny and stuffy nose!! I don't see anythning good coming from this!! DO we REALLY need the water!! How much water do we need. All the years it hardly snowed we all lived through the spring, summer, and fall just fine on the water we got, right?? Thanks a lot mother nature!! Now I am having to stock up on the expensive medicine and not get anything done because I am laying down hacking away!! What a way to spend Valentines day huh!! On top of that I will probably be sick for like at least a week!! But Oh do i ever love this weather . . . NOT!!!
