Snowed In

I'm not sure if we are snowed in or iced in?  Plenty of freezing rain fell all night long.  Brad received a message around 1:00 AM that his work would be closed.  I think most of the city is shut down for today. Hardly any cars around when I have been outside. The high temp of the day is 27 degrees, with the wind chill it's probably feeling more like 17 degrees.  It's cold!

Neither boy was interested in taking a walk this morning.  But I still made them get up and go.  We didn't go the full walk. Too cold for the full walks today.  All walks for the boys must be shorter than usual.  The boys are struggling big time to walk on the sidewalks that are similar to ice rinks right now.  I'm sure it must freeze their little paws and legs to the point where they are likely numb.  They walk as if they are walking around on 4 numb legs.

So here's the visual....I'm doing my best to drag two pugs while remaining upright, trying to keep from slipping.  While the pugs are doing their best to not freeze to death as they walk around on chilled to the bone legs. I'm sure it's a sight to see! Me with two pugs attempting to prevent a Bambi moment where we all go down.

I'm curious what tomorrow will bring.  Brad is scheduled to work since it's the first Saturday of the month but maybe he'll get lucky again.  Then again can they close his office 2 days or what would be 3 days in a row since they are normally closed on Sunday?  Not sure! It's rather quiet out right now.  But I think the forecast calls for it to start up again later tonight. 

Below are pics I took this morning, it's mostly accumulated ice.  Lots of icicles.  Snow brings about icicles too, however, I don't remember seeing as many as I did this morning with this ice storm.

 Yes, folks the fire hydrants here are painted in Cowboys colors. Not sure if I've ever mentioned that before. LOL!
