Can't Complain

Woke up yesterday to black and white...power out on the inside and snow outdoors, about four inches.  The electricity's back (obviously) and the snow's still there.  Everything is better than those days of hellacious wind and rain.  Given what has happened weatherwise across America, it's darned hard to complain about anything here.

Ralph and Celeste became permanent lap fixtures.  It was like moving boulders when I had to get up and, boy!, did I get dirty looks then.  Michael is not a fan of snow, as I hear some dogs are.  We went out several times, but he found the nearest twig or leaf to aim at and it was right back to the porch and into the house.

Florence and Dan were in the same situation down in Fiddletown, but they have a generator.  Florence and I agreed that flushing the toilet becomes a luxury, and the first thing I do when we regain power (no power, no water).  Texting is my main source of communication in an outage.  I do have a landline (which costs a fortune) for emergencies and in case the cellphone runs out.

The sun just rose over the hills and the sky is clear.  As soon as I bring in more wood, I'll put Stove to work.  No need for icicles in the house.

Stay safe.  Be well.
