The First Snow of winter

oh Sandy

Hurricane Sandy really know how to pack a punch!shes a home wrecker alright!Lucky for us we had minor damages to the house but my car was flooded out. Bay Head,Mantoloking and other towns south of us were really hit hard.most area schools were also hith with massive flooding. This Past weekend Nancy,the kids and I went to Baltimore and met up with Donna Mullins and her Daughter. I havent been Many places but Baltimore is a nice City! We went to the National Aquarium,Barnes and Noble and The Hard Rock Cafe!We stayed at a beatiful Hotel and had room service for breakfast. We arrived home at 3pm Sunday afternoon.The front of almost every house had items that were ruined by the flood in black plastic bags.There was also furniture. Phone and cable service was restored tonight. I hear we are getting another storm but not as bad as sandy.ugh I hope we don't get anything like that for another 50 years!

housebound?

The day after christmas we got one heck of a snowstorm.Some call it a blizzard.
Yesterday I attemped to take a walk to the local liquire store for a simple blottle of white zinfindel.
Nancy saw me heading out and advised that I not go.I hate drama so I said OK ,turned around and went back in the house.
Later I called a friend and they said it was good advice.I went upstairs and went on the computer then watched some TV.OK whos dreamin' of a white christmas??I dont mind a white Christmas but I didn't want a blizzard either,dammit!Oops pardon my french!
Im sure many folks feel just like I do.Plans to visit family and friends most likely got postponed.
OK so last night at 111pm Nancy Calls and says there were surprises in the fridge.I went in the kitchen with the Jaws theme going through my head.I opened the fridge and there was a bottle of white Zin and a loaf of bread.
I went next store and thanked them and turns out it was courtasy of Dan!Of course.who else was 4 wheel drive.Hello!He was lounged out in his chair so I gave him a knuckle bump!He had Brendan snuggled in with him too.Dayam where my Camera when I need it!

snowed in

Yesterdays storm was a doozy.Except for the driveway,yesterdays storm left us a big snowbank in our front yard and today was too windy for the kids to enjoy it.Nancy and my car are plowed in.It took Dan 5 hours to get to work today,according to Nancy.
The wind is crazy and has been for 2 days.
We didnt get any mail today,nor trash pick up.Wow must be tough out there!If this keep up Ill have to cancell my dentist appointment or postpone it.In the meantime I'll watch some DVDs,makes mixes and a possible relapse of my you tube addiction?No Ill go on in moderation.lol!

green flag greatness

After days of yellow flag status.We were green today.Patrons were happy.Boogie Boaders especially the young ones were really happy.Im sure Beach goers were also happy not to hear whistles blowing all day!
Some say theres another hurrican that supposed to churn up out seas again.Others say it will miss us and just blow itself out ..whatever that means.
I dont have control of the weather and mother nature is hard to predict so we will just have to see.
In other news The President declared an end to combat in Iraq.This should end of the talf about the building of the mosque near ground zero..for awhile.The press will talk this issue dry.We still havent found Bin Laden yet have we?
I made a new playlist and have another rollin round my head.Titles are swirlin round my head like a twister too.
I'll post them both when the new one is finished.Most likely over the weekend!
