December 15

At 2:37 am this morning there was snow covering the drive and sidewalk. At 5:30 am the drive and sidewalk looked to be mostly clear. Then at 7:30 they are mostly covered again. We show 29 degrees but it must be warmer than that. So far we don't have much of an accumulation but things are never over till they're over and we're told this isn't over yet by long shot. It looks like that light fluffy stuff that can be blown off with the blower. I think I'll be finding out pretty soon.

Meanwhile we both have several library books and enough food to tide us over even if it does get real bad. Did turn on the gas fireplace for awhile last evening. That was nice but I'm hoping it lessened the money sucking emergency heat that we are being forced to use. Can't seem to make our minds up on a heating system brand. Both Trane and Ruud are about $1200 more than the Gibson...........Oh what to do! On-line you can find negative comments on all of them.

Well, back to more on-line seek and struggle.
