What are you guys doing right NOW??? ;)

Yes, some people have no idea what snow can do. My hubby is driving the 4x4 trying to deliver bakery deliveries to the local businesses as his farmers market in Warminster has been closed due to snow. Most of the vans aren't 4x4. Typical. At least he will be home earlier anyway. We are all at home. Yippee!

Today we are experiencing, what snow can do. Wind is blowing with about 70 km/h, there are massive snowdrifts on the streets. Cars get stuck or slide Off the road. Since the day's begun, our fire brigade had to help at least three car-drivers that tried to drive on closed roads.

I'm expecting both my children to come home from Vienna. But the conditions are very bad. I suspect they won't be able to drive home.

I wonder if a picture or two would be possible?

It doesn't look that bad on the picture. But I just heard that the roads leading to my village are closed.

Please don't tell me that Miles has a problem!

Trying to get everything ready for our daughters 21st tonight!

We now have a major blockage in our sewage line somewhere.

Do you have "Mr. Rooter" in your vicinity?

Thank you for the pictures, my grandmother on one side was from Austria (my grandfather was from Hungary) and I've never seen it.

I'd think that a tech journo would have no choice but to go for work, lol.

I got free passes from an exhibitor.

I am a journalist and I have colleagues who do pass. Normally I apply for accreditation to events I know I will cover but also apply for a few on spec. It also depends who's dime I'm traveling on.

I know journos, but they go to work events for work only. From what I understand, their companies are strict about keeping work and fun separate, so if you go, you're expected to cover something, not just hang about.

That is correct. If a staff writer / reporter is assigned then it's all work and no or little play. No time for it either since you're constantly updating social media during preparation of the feature material. If you're freelancing it's less restrictive because you're paid for what you produce.

Three - four times a year I pay my way to events that interest me professionally but I have no interest in covering for work.
