6:30am
Boy 5:45am came too early this morning.
I'm still trying to pry my eyes open.
Most schools are still closed
yet again today.
The wind is something else out
there. I can hear the wind chimes
going crazy. As we watched Tony
leave this morning a big wind gust
came through and knocked a very
large branch out of the neighbor's tree
across from us. It doesn't appear
that anyone on the other side of our
street has any power still. It's been
out since last night.
Watching the news at the moment
and they say wind gusts could
reach 40-50mph!
Franklin county alone has
almost 50,000 without power.
It's eerie when stepping outside
and hearing the wind in the trees and the ice
on the branches creaking.
---------------------------
7:25am
The groundhog didn't see his shadow
so legend says that means
an early Spring.
Let's hope!!
-------------------------------
9:00am
It's now snowing.
They expect an inch of snow to fall today.
--------------------------------
Upgrading your tv to a flat screen
and wondering what to do with
that old entertainment center.
Check out this crafty idea!
BEFORE
AFTER
laundry station
More things to recycle
and give new uses to.
Soap dish and toothbrush holder.
Now a pencil and change holder.
Cookie sheet now is a magnetic board.
---------------------------------
1:55pm
Power just got restored across
the street. They've been without since
last night. Many people did not
leave their homes braving the cold.
.
------------------------------------------
Wow, we must be bored with cabin fever.
Me and one kid took a nap this
afternoon.
Going to Kroger tonight to pick
up some meds for Tony.
I'm so ready just to get out of the house!
Just feel cooped up.
I got some chicken a la king
and ham & bean soup out of
the freezer thawing out
to use for supper tonight and tomorrow.
I think I'm gonna make chicken enchiladas
out of the chicken a la king.
Serve it with some Spanish rice.
Will use corn tortillas instead of
flour tortillas since they have less fat & calories.
I'll make up some corn bread
to go with the ham & bean soup.
-------------------------------
7:30pm
Just returned home from Kroger
and getting Tony's meds.
Found some bags of salad for .59 cents
and Bob Evans maple sausage
(yummy, my favorite)
reg. $3.99 marked down to $1.49,
bought like 6-8, don't remember.
----------------------------
Columbus City Schools
WILL be open tomorrow
except for 7 buildings
(don't know which ones til I watch the news)
that are without power.
Please be careful walking on any sidewalks.
There is ice under that snow that
fell today!
Jonathan wiped out on our front walk
when we returned home this
evening. Fell flat on his back.
