Might as well blog...

Cause I sure can't sleep!!

With son stuck in a ditch "somewhere" between Winnipeg and the US border whilst a blizzard overtakes him and his vehicle!!!!

We've been texting and phoning.  He could call 911 and perhaps it will come to that.  His friend said he could come from Winnipeg to rescue him with his truck.  Another option.  Matt, however, is saying that this will be something that he most likely will live to tell the tale!

And they wonder why parents go grey?!

He's driving down to pick up his ladyfriend in Grand Forks as she is flying there to meet him tomorrow, but he wanted to make sure he was there at the airport waiting for her....so now, it most likely will be she waiting at the airport for him!

He does have a sleeping bag, water and food in the vehicle.

That's something.

But it can be frightening by yourself in the middle of who knows where with -30 windchill and 60-80 km/hr winds howling into the blackness around you.

Why do my children do this?

Last year it was daughter in the middle of a prairie blizzard by herself....this year son.

We do learn lessons in life, one way or another!

And that's all I have to say about that!!!!!!!!!!
