WE DID NOT GET OUR HEAT ON TIL AROUND 9 PM SO NO HOT WATER.  NICE THAT THERE WAS PLENTY FOR SHOWERING THIS MORNING.  NOW THEY SAY ANOTHER POSSIBLE 4 INCHES OF SNOW LATER TODAY.  YIKES.  I CANNOT HANDLE ALL THIS POWER OUTAGE. 
I TOSSED OUT THE POSSIBLE IFFY FOODS FROM MY FRIDGE THIS MORNING.  AFTER 37 OR 38 HRS OFF I WAS NOT GOING TO TAKE A CHANCE ON THE DEFROSTED MEATS AND A FEW OTHER THINGS.  ESPECIALLY THE MAYO.  I NEVER KEEP THAT AFTER AN OUTAGE.  IT SEEMS SO MANY FOOD POISONINGS COME FROM SOMETHING WITH MAYO IN IT WHICH IS STRANGE BECAUSE MAYO IS MADE WITH VINEGR AND THAT'S A PRESERVATIVE.
NOTHING IN MY FREEEZER, WHICH IS PACKED PRETTY TIGHTLY, STARTED TO THAW SO THAT'S A GOOD THING.

MY FRIENDS CAR, MIRACULOUSLY, WAS UNHURT.  THE TREE FELL OVER BUT NOT ALL THE WAY AND WAS HANGING JUST ABOVE HIS CAR BY INCHES WITH SOME SMALL TOP BRANCHES ON HIS CAR.  HE WAS SOOO LUCKY.  THEY REMOVED IT WITHIN 4 HOURS OF THE STORM BEING OVER. THE OTHER 2 TREES THAT BENT OVER SO MUCH SPRANG BACK UP WHEN THE SNOW WAS WASHED OFF WITH THE FOLLOWING RAIN.  WEIRD.

MY SON WILL SHOP FOR ME TODAY AND HE SAYS HE'S BRINGING LUNCH.  ITS FOR MY BIRTHDAY BUT I'LL TAKE IT.  BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.

SORRY ABOUT THE ISSUES OTHERS ARE HAVING FROM STORMS TO EARTHQUAKES TO TOO MUCH RAIN.  MOTHER NATURE IS NOT KIND IN MANY WAYS.  I HOPE YOU ALL GET THRU THE MESSES EASILY ENOUGH.

TAKE CARE MY FRIENDS.  IF YOU DO NOT HEAR FROM ME TOMORROW, ITS ANOTHER OUTAGE.  HUGS FOR ALL.  QB S

Trish, earthquakes are pretty rare in this area. I’ve seen on the news that it’s possibly influenced by sunspot activity. 

I browned the 8 pounds of ground beef. 5 pounds are bagged up in the freezer, the last 3 pounds have to cool another half hour or so. I use 2 frying pans, so it took about an hour to do the 4 batches. Ralph was next door helping neighbor Dave with his yard sale. 

Physicians! My first cardiologist, Dr Lamorte, retired, so I moved to Dr Andrulli who did my ablation. Same practice. Now he’s easing to retirement, only seeing patients one day a week. I see him Tuesday, I’ll se who he wants me to switch to. And they are both younger than me! I’m happy for them that they are/ did retire. 
50 and windy here, you all can keep your snow!
