Yup, break out the woolies. I’m more worried about the ice. If we lose power I’ll never hear the end of it ;) The Big Mew’s been jonesing for a generator, while I’ve been thinking we should get a snowblower. Of course neither of us have done anything about getting one or the other, and I’ll bet you can’t find either at the moment.

“The Big Mew’s been jonesing for a generator”

We had a major ice storm a few years back and I picked up a generator because the power wasn’t restored for over a week.

Just big enough to run the furnace, a few lights and a T.V.

5 gallons of gas every 19 hours. Of course with todays prices, 5 gallons every 19 hours for a week would get pretty expensive.

“and I’ll bet you can’t find either at the moment.’

Got mine a Lowes during the height of the storm. They are probably still available right now, but don’t wait until the powers out.

Got a fireplace and wood yet?
That takes the necessity out of the generator.

Snowblower? Pfffft. Go out there and get your exercise. ;^)
