Snowed in. YAY!

Ladies,
This is a little off topic, but what source of heat do you use? My husband wants to install gas logs as he thinks it will be cheaper than using electric heat that we now use.
Any opinions?

We are shut down here in St. Louis today with snow. I had the furnace guy here today, so I am good, but it is colder here than we are used to. Plows have cleared the roads, so tomorrow should be fine. I sure haven't seen anyone outside playing or "enjoying" the snow!
I am pulling my stuff out to do some sewing, and my brother called. Wants to meet for dinner. He is an OTR trucker and will be thru about dinner time! I was hoping to stay home and enjoy being inside! But I haven't seen him for a couple months, so I will go out to eat!

Native Georgian...51 years in Atlanta metro area. Snow in Atlanta is a great treat. Ice in Atlanta is devastating! I have lived thru the famous ice storms where we were without power and heat for days and in one case, over a week. I was finally able to experience a White Christmas for the first time this past Christmas. Yes, to my dear Northern friends, this seems crazy. It is! We just don't get enough of the white stuff to warrant the output for the big machinery needed to make this easy. We get snowed/iced in, we eat and drink, we get to do cross-stitch, we get to quilt. ALL IS GOOD!!!!!

Snowed in at Marietta, GA too. Thankfully I made it home from Atlanta from work on Monday morning--my daughter and I both work at Piedmont Hospital. Now sewing, checking in with family, cooking. Had to go out briefly for food for the animals--can't believe we ran out. Hopefully travelling gets manageable--my daughter works on Wednesday and I have to go back on Friday. Stay warm!

We are snow blizzard ready. Predicting 12-18 inches of snow overnght and into Wed. Full tanks of gas, milk, bread, eggs, batteries. Everything. Looking to my snow day off (maybe 2). Will make muffins, have coffee and sew, sew, sew. Only bad side of this is that I have to make up these snow days at the end of the school year in June.
