    Icy...Icy...Icy!!!

    Boy, Winter has hit us with a bang.....nothing but ICE everywhere!
    Power was out for almost 36 hours.
    Food was thawing out in fridge!
    Our new roof was even leaking from the weight of the ice around the chimney,  I guess. (at least our insurance will cover the damages)
    My internet time has been limited and the power has still been going off and on all day. 
    I am surprised that Direct TV is working when the power is on...it usually goes out when the wind blows the wrong way.
    We have another round moving in tonight, wintery mix they are calling it. 
    Hopefully, it will clear up enough this next week so I can get out and get my Christmas shopping done!

    Guess I should be thankful ,  we're weren't hit as bad as Oklahoma....I sure feel for them.  Send your thoughts and prayers their way for a quick thaw!

    Blessings everyone,
    Koni

    Yes, power came on finally after about 36 hours without.
    Ice melted yesterday with rain and temps about 34 degrees.
    They are calling for about an inch of snow tonight but hopefully it won't do much damage.
    We live in a rural area, so we don't see too many plow or snow trucks..lol
    We're pretty much on our own as far as getting around and fending for ourself.
    Gotta keep stocked up on groceries, batteries, candles, kerosene, etc....
    That's winter for ya though.....keeps you on your toes..lol
    Happy Holidays

    We had an ice cold pouring rain here today.  The temp was 36 degrees all day long.  At least it wasn't freezing.  I hope you get your power on soon.
