well I've spent the afternoon prepping for the storm.....I'm all caught up on sleep! No storm gets in the way of my Sunday afternoon nap lol! It is cold here. Dh just got a call from his boss to call in the morning and see if they are working or not. Will depend on the roads. I'm making a roast for soup later on and the porch is full of wood and the woodstove is cranked up full force. My treadle stands ready.....back in 2002 (I think) we had a major ice storm here. It was beautiful but MANY went without power for weeks afterward. Ours was only out a day but I had a baby to keep warm with no wood and a very inefficient fireplace. Now I'm ready...wood and wood heat so no worries if power goes out and oil lamps for light.
