Good morning, Ladybugs.  I guess you've seen it on the news, the blizzard is heading our way!  Our Women's Retreat was cancelled.  Haven't heard if the Super Bowl party is still on or not. 


I'm ready!  DS and GF will be hanging out with us for the weekend.  I'm picking up some subs and have some soup cooking.  Just hoping we don't lose our power....Guess I better be sure my iPod is charged up...candles are ready.....batteries in radio are ok..... blah blah blah.....


I will try to keep you updated!!

I was wondering how many Bugs are being affected by that storm. Did you run out yesterday and stock up? People here get a little nuts when storms are predicted. We keep a stash of emergency food in the basement. People here forget that if the power goes out, the stores can't run. We woke up to freezing rain, now there is snow coming down on top of the ice. Made early trip to vet with both cats for a checkup, am in to stay. Roads were wet, but walks & parking lots were skating rinks.

Wishing you a safe day.

Yes, I was thinking about you last night when they showed your storm coming on the news.

I saw that on the Weather channel and thought of you, Shari. I hope it turns out not to be as bad as they predict. It sounds like you are all prepared to settle in wait it out if only the power doesn't go out. I think those times we were without for several days, I missed the lights and TV and computer even more than the heat. lol Stay safe.--Pat
