    Really glad to see you again, Sandie, and glad to know that you and critters and Dad made it through this okay. Prayers for you all.

    I haven't been on PT or FB very much lately but I did hear about the big storm. I'm so glad that you're all doing well and I hope that things will get back to normal very soon. Maybe you could look into getting a generator as a back up for when the power goes out. Please take care.

    Well no worries, anyone. I've learned that my sort of gas oven you CAN NOT light it. Now, if I had the sort with a pilot light, yes, those you can light with a match and use for heat.

    So, normal routine today, walked the fluffs, went to the Y, ran to the grocery store and came here to the nursing home to see Dad, and now on the computer. Main roads are bare BUT missing lanes, ha haaa. The snow is piled high and fills a lane or two. Side roads are bumpy with ice and snow.

    Thanks for all the lovely posts!

    Elyse, everything returned on Wed evening about 6 PM. It was the box outside the house got zapped, tech put on a new one and TA DAH! I wasn't even home at the time. He left a message for me to let me know (my appt was for Friday). So that was all set.

    On Fri afternoon I had no heat. Called the furnace co, turns out my thermostat died. It would have been 10 years old on May 2d; they are all circuit boards now! He did not have one in his van with all the features I need -- I have a humidifier and need to be able to control that -- so he put on a temporary one so I've got heat. He planned to return on Sat (yesterday). He phoned me Sat, he was the only one on call and was really busy; wanted to know if I was OK till Mondayl. I am a reasonable person, I have heat so yes I am fine till Monday.
