Surviving Snowpocalypse

Monday’s snowfall was even worse than last week’s. We must have gotten 6 inches of heavy, wet snow. I took the bus home before travel got really dicey.  To add to the misery, many places lost power – including us.

The power flickered off and on in the wee hours, then went off. Fortunately, the temperature was near freezing rather than lower. I bundled up in layers. For a while, I shoveled out the driveway to stay warm. After Julian got up we warmed up water for tea and coffee on a little Coleman propane burner. We started the gas fireplace. This required moving the flat screen TV out of the way, which is why I didn’t do it earlier. I did some writing in the old school way – on paper. The power finally came back on around 5 pm, just in time for Julian to make dinner.
