We are expecting another snowstorm beginning this evening. Last week our power was out about 26 hours. We have a well so no water, lights or heat. We do have a woodstove but keeping it going through the night, requires missed or disturbed sleep. I have stock piled fleece in which I poked holes all around the outside of each piece with a special rotor blade. I plan on crocheting a trim around each piece to make Linus blankets for my local chapter during my confinement because of the snow. Having a warm fleece blanket in my lap during the process helps keep me warm. I am about 35 miles west of Baltimore City in rural Maryland. This is one of the worst winters I remember since my marriage and we moved here 36 years ago. I may have to look into a place in Florida. My husband and I aren't getting any younger.
