Well, the weather outside is frightful but the fire is so delightful.... We are having a major snowstorm right now. The wind is howling and you can hardly see a thing. They predict at least 12 inches/30 centimetres before the worst is over. But the high winds make it worse. My hubby has our yard all cleaned out. He has gone to get something done to the truck. I am here waiting for the furnace guy...again. This is their third visit since Friday. Friday was the day we were told we need a new furnace (carbon monoxide threat) , then Saturday we had no heat and it was -20 so back they came and fixed the problem in the control box. This time hubby noticed a huge amount of smoke coming out of the chimney. He checked the furnace and you could not even see the flames for smoke. So... back they come to fix the nozzels which they think the last guy connected wrong. I sure hope they don’t think that I’m paying for this service call!!! We can’t get a new furnace until sometime around the 29th. I sure hope the old gal can hang in there that long.Well, yesterday you would have thought I had not eaten for a month. I constantly was stuffing my face. I ate an ENTIRE bag of potato chips!!!! Plus a lot of other things: gumdrops, cake, pizza, cereal, popcorn. I was stuffed and really uncomfortable and felt really guily for over indulging. I am not usually like this. So today I am going to be extra... good.Suppose to have a hair appointment at 6:00 but we will have to see how the weather goes as she lives outside of town and her roads are never in the best shape. I will not be risking my neck for a hair do. I’ll do my own or wear one of my five wigs.All I have left to do id wrap about 8 stocking stuffers and I am done!!! oh, not quite, I need 2 bottles of wine for my manicurist and the lady who does my pedicures. These are my friends too, my cottage buddies.Well, gonna say so long and go make the bed. Um, maybe I’ll crawl back in for a bit. No, got stuff to do!!! be well, everyone. Debbie

You ate the WHOLE bag???!!! LOL
I\'m so happy to hear you are feeling so much better.
Burrr, what a time for furnace problems!! Murphy\'s Law, eh? I hope it keeps going until the new one arrives.
Stay warm and be careful if you have to go out in the storm. We had really strong winds with that storm as well.
Take care,
hugs Cathy
Hey, we\'re finaly getting some snow too, not quite as heavy as yours, I can see at least a quarter of a mile before everything is lost in the snow.
I\'m not totaly ready for Christmas and it may not happen this year do to continuing car troubles but it will still be nice and we\'ll still be able to eat what we want and watch tons of Christmas movies so can\'t complain. Hugs and holiday cheers, Georgia
My computer was out for 2-3 days and guess what?? It was the server, dogs. Well I read your journals and got very dizzy. Glad you are back. Here I am crying about 0 degrees and 14 inches if snow and you are in way worse shape. Holy Cow!!! We are getting 4 more, then rain...Weird. Really, really glad you feel better. Love Naomi xo
You are such a hoot girl..........so what if ya ate about a million calories, lol. I get that way sometimes too and I dont even have periods anymore. I think its just craziness and our way of venting it. Take care of yourself in this snow it could get ugly. We are suppose to have ANOTHER stinkin ice storm believe it or not. The city hasnt even recovered from the last one. There is still power out in some areas. It is a hazard around here cuz all the trees are still coated with heavy ice since the temps have been around zero. You never know when a tree is going to fall from the weight. The devastation is aweful. Trees are down everywhere. You take care of you. Luv ya, hugs
im so glad that your feeling better and im hoping that the weather gets abit better for you guys too, so you can get out and about and enjoy some holiday cheer! hugs and well wishes for a bright and cheery christmas!! hugs to you : )
