Like 1.8 million other people, I’m sitting here waiting for the snowmageddon to start but that won’t happen until sometime tomorrow morning. Then it will run through Sunday. The estimates are all over the place as you probably know. The latest I heard about ten minutes ago is that we could get as much as 15 inches at our house. But, sitting here worrying about it would be the most useless thing I could do at this point. What’s going to happen, is going to happen. I just pray that people can and will be safe. I know that travel in and out of this subdivision is going to be impossible for at least through Wednesday. My only hope is that the forecasters are correct about the “type” of snow we are supposed to get. They are saying that we should get the “light and fluffy” kind that will be easier to move around. That would be most excellent because even though I’ll have to get out and shovel it out of the driveway, it will be much easier to just move little bit at a time. I’m hoping that we won’t get a lot of wind with it after the snow stops. I don’t want it to blow back over the driveway. But —- I think we are ready for all of this to unfold. I took Ms. Kate for her hair appointment. Would not want to have a snow storm with unkempt hair you know. From there we went to Walmart to fill the car with gas and to pick up the “call in” order we placed last night. On the way home we jaunted out to one of our favorite restaurants for a brunch. (It wasn’t that great today. I ordered off of the Mexican menu and didn’t particularly like my selection. I will go back to my “Merican” steak and eggs thank you!) We came home, put way the groceries, and then I prepped the driveway with snow/ice melt and I brought the truck up to the house to get it off the street. Who knows, a snow removal truck might get lost and accidentally come through our area. It happened once before.
I looks as though most of my family is going to get hit with this storm. Julie is just across the state and will get hit about an hour after us. They are looking at 15 “ too. Josh and family, Lisa and family, Amanda and family are all in the “ice zone”. Steph and Christ are in Oklahoma and will send it all to us first. Heather and all in California will just get a bunch of rain. Som no one is safe.
That’s enough for today. I don’t expect any of our local churches will be having services this weekend. So, if you can’t get out for a service, take the time to stop and give God thanks in the privacy and quiet of your home. Sending you blessings until next time. Peace.
