Winter Storms Heading Our Way...

Good Morning! Gosh, here it is, the sun is shining and the skies are soo blue and pretty, and it's in the low 50's. Not bad start of a day at all. Then tomorrow, we are supposed to have rain around 9am, and then around 2 or 3pm I guess it's suppose to turn to ice, then snow... I am so not looking forward to this ice/snow storm! The news channels has given everybody at least a two day warning to get prepaired for this storm.. I sure hope no body loses their electricity during this storm.. Our actual last really bad, ice storm that I recall was a bad one! It took some time to get all the tree limbs and debris cleared from all the areas that was hit real bad..
Our latest snow/ice storm happened Christmas day and continued for several days after.. but the really big ice storm I'm talking now about happened 9-10 years ago,and I was still working at the time.. One of the lady's I worked with was without her electricity for weeks... a very long time.. I don't know how she did it!! I think her and her husband did end up getting a generator, but, it was quite a while later, as there wasn't any generator's to be had before and when the ice storm actually hit! Every place was sold out of them! Then when they did get some in, there was a real long waiting list for them! I am so glad we have one.. as one just never knows when they'll need to have one for their use..

I don't like for anyone, and especially my family and love one's to have to be out there driving on the streets and highways when weather like this happens. It's just sooo much better to just stay home where one can be safe... I am so very glad that I don't work anymore. That was a long drive for me, and especially in bad weather, and the drive to my workplace was like 25 miles one way.. in which I traveled 4 times a day, which added up to 100 miles per day..as I worked with school bus transportation..

I will keep everyone in my prayers who are in the areas of this storm that is headed our way... It's coming from California, through Arizona, and into Oklahoma ( which they say is the bulls eye of the storm) and then into Arkansas.. It sounds to be pretty nasty of a storm, from what the weathermen are saying.. Everyone be and keep safe and take care..

I'm going to check and make sure I have everything I need before the storm heads my way.. Today's the day to get something if we need to, that's for sure!

Blessings,
