Hello’Face,
Good to see you.
12 hours sleep is fantastic, i only just manage 6.
Wal*Xart operate under another name here (Asda), the stores are so massive you can see the curve of the earth in the floor.
The old sun has failed to put in a showing today, after yesterdays beautiful sunny day. They have predicted more snow sometime this week.
After the last batch of snow we had flooding ,when that receded it was heavy rain followed by...flooding. The water has receded now just in time for more snow. A fairly standard winter.
The prepping came in handy with the power outages the other day. A transformer parted company with reality and put 12000 houses into darkness, make that 11999. :)
The electric company had the emergency generators in place within 24 hours with normal service resumed in 48!

Just put out a cup of Tea...

I’m just relaxing with a cuppa right now. I don’t dare pass it up after a particularly long peiod of stress (72 hours, this time) and besides, it relaxes me. No wonder you Brits always have a stiff upper lip! I’m working on one of my own! LOL! (The tea helps with that!)

It’s overcast here, and 55 degrees (15C) but no wind to speak of, so it’s good. I had my door open yesterday afternoon for several hours. It was nice!

(Wish you were here!)

I remember watching a long corridor buck and twist during the Loma Prieta 'quake.
