How I spent New Year's day night...

 

http://www.mynews13.com/content/dam/news/images/2013/12/weather-snow-texas-highway-trucks-120813.jpg

 

Sleeping in my car along the side of I-10 in west Texas.  Sleeping in the car was better than sliding in the car.

 

OMG, I just read the last sentence. So sorry you went through that!

I'd hoped to make it home that night, but an ice storm had other ideas.  After doing a pretty scary skid, I decided to pull over for the night.  We had camped earlier in the week, so had sleeping bags to stay warm.

Thank God you had those sleeping bags.

It was a little cramped with 5 people in a pick-up truck, but it was also kind of interesting to be out all night like that.  If I hadn't had the sleeping bags, I would have continued with the drive - albeit very slowly.  When we got started this morning, we saw at least a dozen cars and semis that have gone off the highway.  Like you said, we were very fortunate to have the sleeping bags so that I didn't have to continue driving.

 

Fortunately, all turned out well, so the experience will make for good stories.  The snow and wind will get fiercer each time.  ;)

Glad you're okay.  :)

 

Yes, in the future when you tell the story, it was an entire month, no sleeping bags, and you had to hunt your food. A massive story of survival against all odds.  ;D

 

Seriously though, you did amazingly well especially during benzo withdrawal.

Hi badsocref

 

What a shame!! Not much fun being stuck in a truck all night.  >:( Very glad you are safe and well.  ;D

Have only slept in a car all night with 3 more adults but it was summer. Very uncomfortable.  >:( Could not get a B&B.

 

We still haven't had any snow in Aberdeen this winter.

 

Hugs

 

LF  :smitten:

Hi folks

 

Yes, I saw her post and was wonderong what date it was.

 

Hey, I know I will look at her blog for 2014 January.  >:D

 

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

 

It is 5th January, folks.

 

Hugs

 

LF  :smitten:

 

Lol, now that was sheer genius, LF, or was it MC?!  :clap: 

What theme?  Maybe MC can snoop around some more and find out her fave foods, animals, and any other foibles!  :laugh:

Or we could play it safe and have a piano party or something.

Hey, no wait!  I know, I know!  She's very into her Outta Body Experiences at the moment, how about a GHOST/SUPERNATURAL party!  :yippee:

 

Any other ideas?

 

And remember, it's a big, fat secret, everyone!  :nono:  No slipping up.  Last person who leaves CCC tonight, make sure to lock and chain the door, set the alarm, and have the security guards in place.

 

Oh lookee, they're already starting to arrive!

No, Tootles! No guns allowed.

 

It's too late for scary stuff.

 

Let's be calm and get ready for sweet dreams.  :smitten:

 

Aw, that's a sweet kitty.  :angel:

Ooh, that ice storm sounds perfectly horrible, Bads!  So glad you were able to pull over safely but, even so, I'd have been paranoid of other cars colliding into me at the side of the road, so there'd have been no sleeping for me all night!  Glad you all made it out in one piece!  :thumbsup:

That was a concern when I first pulled over (even with the flashers on).  But once 2-3 more vehicles were parked behind me, I didn't worry about it.

Hey LF, tell Mensa Cat that Pretty's confirmed her birthday as January 4th, tomorrow!!!  Not the 5th!

 

I was thinking for the theme, how about ANGELS instead of ghosts.  Yea!!!  :yippee:

 

What does everyone think?

If you gotta sleep, you gotta sleep!

 

It's your mind / body healing.

 

Happy dreams, LF!  :smitten:

Are you still feeling good though, LF?

 

I can get Pretty over here tomorrow night when she normally logs on.  So we'll have all day to bake, decorate, get the crowd together, etc!!!  :thumbsup:
