Howdy, luvie.

I’m as ready as I can be and hope I don’t find out the hard way that I forgot something important.
I wanted to move the d*** Mercedes Hubby insisted on keeping out of the garage here at the house so I could put the Town Car in there. When I went out to move it - - no key!!! Can’t find it anywhere and I dug around for over an hour.

I called his cousin next door and he came over with his Jeep. We dragged that car out with the winch! The Town Car is now in there where the water in the battery won’t freeze. When this frigid air is finally out of here, I’ll have transportation.

Our temp is already down to 30 now and it was around 45 an hour ago when Hubby’s cousin left. It was spitting snow a couple of minutes ago when I looked outside. We won’t get much based on what I see on the radar. Just ice from the rain we got before it changed over.

I saw that the bitter cold had reached you earlier. I wish ALL of your kitties would figure out there’s some heat in the little greenhouse and hunker down in there.

I hope they will notice the heater being on, but if they don’t, they do have the cozy self-heating pads.

I’m soooo glad that his cousin was at home and could help move that car out of the way for you. Sure don’t need the car you drive to be in the worst of it...just in case.

Sounds like you’re in for it now. I hope that it doesn’t snow too much, but if it padded the ice underneath, in case you need to get out for some insane reason, that would be a good thing.

Sorry, ladies, for the cold weather. What a weird winter so far.

Stay warm as best you can...thank goodness it will warm back in a few days.

radu...ingenious dragging the Mercedes out and getting your Town Car in!

Are you settled in now for the duration...sitting out the cold?
