Have fun. Just keep it down there please - we have more than enough. We're still in a state of emergency, so everybody is home - again. I didn't realize just how much I liked having the house to myself - until everybody is forced to stay home from work and school, and off the roads. School has been closed all week - the kids don't go back now till Tuesday, since Monday is a holiday. My grandson is bored to tears and driving us crazy - or more crazy than usual - just a typical 13 yr old I suppose........

Many stores are voluntarily closing for fear of roof collapse, even before the state of emergency. There have been several such incidents at schools and a fire station. The flat roofs just can't take the weight of the snow and ice, and don't drain off like a pitched roof. This has been a winter that won't be forgotten around here for a very long time!
