Blizzard
We are expecting a blizzard. Yeah … I’m so excited …not. We have ice melt, snow shovels and gas for the snowblower. We have flashlights and candles in case the power goes out. The pantry and freezer are well stocked. Filled the tanks in both cars to make sure they don’t freeze. Windshields are covered so that the wipers don’t freeze to the glass. It’s a pity the house no longer has a working fireplace, so no need to stick up on Duraflame. We are ready.
Saturday 9
With or Without You Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Again?

Here on Long Island we expect cold weather, we expect snow and ice. But this winter has been colder and with much more snow than usual. Can it be spring soon? Time to hunker down. Again.
Winter walk
For the first time in forever I was able to take a walk in my neighborhood. There’s still snow in the ground, but the sidewalks are clear. The snow on my lawn is filthy, car exhaust has turned it black … But it felt good to be outside, to get some fresh air. Some of my neighbors still have Christmas decorations on their lawns, a few have decor from Valentine’s Day, and one has already decorated for St. Patrick’s Day. I hope to be able to walk again soon. They’re forecasting snow again this weekend…
