That is so great you bought a new lantern, batteries & stocked up on supplies. Never know what these NE storms will bring. I stoked up the fire. Could feel the cold in the back rooms. I have temp gages in most rooms. It is going to be a stormy night!
Stay Safe!
Football Sunday! Woot! Woot!

Happy New Year! I wish you and your family all the best for a happy, healthy 2024 with lots of amazing new memories being made. :) I look forward to following along in your journey that you share with us here on DS. Hopefully not too many damaging snow storms to share... so do stay safe in the upcoming storm.
I've been laid up with a really bad back, and it's been an emotional rollercoaster the last couple of weeks, and into next week which will be the first anniversary of dad's passing. It sometimes just all gets too much, but I'm soldiering on.
Sending you all love and hugs and peace for the year ahead, my angel friends xxx

Hi Chris, I’m glad that you and your family are taking all the precautions you can to be prepared for the storm. I know you said the worst was last night into today, so I hope you didn’t wake up snowed in and hopefully you kept your power all night.
I hope you and Holly enjoyed your popcorn movie marathon last night and hopefully everyone has a peaceful Sunday. I know you and Holly will enjoy all your football games.
Here’s hoping the Eagles get their win today but they’ve been playing so bad they could loose again.
Here’s hoping you all stay safe and warm and enjoy your football Sunday
Lots of hugs Jeannie
