Nika happened here...

well, we are ok...

furnace guy will be here after 4pm...

in the meanwhile...

we are warm...

very warm...

and the neighbor plowed us out around noon...

so all of this has been moved...

and she is covered up now...

the winds are blowing and drifting the snow...

DH's arm is better...

still sore, but better...

he called in this morning because of the furnace...

so they told him if its still sore tomorrow...

they will be taking him to the company doctor in Decatur...

Craig is going to try to go to work at 4...

not sure if he will get there or not...

hang in there...

this cannot last forever...

glad we don't get these winter's too often...

;)

before and during...

before...

just as it was getting started...

during...

before...

during...

its not finished yet...

at almost 3am, its still coming down...

the winds will pick up...

and start blowing it everywhere...

roads are terrible and the state is telling everyone to stay home...

everything is cancelled and everyone with any sense is hunkered down...

I would imagine until Thursday at the soonest...

so, asking for prayers...

DH fell at work yesterday going in for lunch...

landing on his elbow and he thinks something in his arm is broken...

roads are too bad to get anywhere, and its not life threatening...

so, staying put for now...

I got up at midnight cold...

so came in and kicked the furnace up a bit...

nothing...

its not working...

the pilot was out, they finally got that lit...

still nothing...

I have the heating pad under the babies...

oven is on, water boiling on top...

and the electric heating running in our bathroom/ bedroom for now...

will move that around as needed...

the guys are back in bed, I am manning the first shift...

no one can get to us...

for now...

asking prayers for those in the south who are in the massive ice storm...

got a special gal that way...

Jettie with the new hip...

tree came through their bedroom ceiling last night...

they hadn't gone to bed yet...

they are ok, but its a long night there, too...

and you know there are so many others trying to manage this storm system...

got 2 more moving in after this one...

prayers for all of you going through this or worse...

keep the faith, God has our backs...

;)
