    Thanks everyone. It helps knowing you are out there. Still snowing here but tapering off I think. (well hope) So far we have at least 4 inches. Hard to tell because it's blowing. It's 13 degrees. According to the weather channel's web site, if we make it through Tuesday, things will get better.

    Sandra, I checked and that cab co no longer is in operation. The phone number is not even listed. I think it ran for only a short time in the spring.

    We have an convience store about a block away from me, but I can't even walk that far with all the snow. I can't risk a fall because I can't get back up. Yep, I'd be the 'help I've fallen and can't get up' person. I have looked into getting one of those call for help buttons. Way to expensive for me. I carry my cell with me when I'm outside.

    Speaking of outside, it looks like another planet out there. Not a thing is moving. The city has not even tried to plow the streets yet. Even the outdoor kitties must be hunkered down, they have not shown up and there are no kitty prints in the snow on the porch. I'm gonna go back to bed myself I think.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    It's good to read all the updates, prayers & suggestions. It is snowing big fat flakes here. Has been for awhile. Funny tho, it must have warmed up last night
    because all the snow on my front porch had melted off. I think you are wise not to tempt fate with a walk outside for any distance. Rest well, it will help you get
    over the cold. Still praying for the storm to make a quick pass & then move on out to sea.

    The sun actually is out!!! Looks great. Was slightly tempted to go sweep the porch off until I realized the temp is 13 with a wind chill of -7. I just hate feeling trapped inside. But starting Tuesday, the highs will be near 40 for a few days.

    Just need to make it through the night with power still on. No heat if it goes off. I would have hot water and my cook stove would still work though.

    And you have little fur-covered lap heaters if they will cooperate!

    How are you doing today. I saw pictures of the amount of snow you have, on the news. I really hope you have power still, and the outside kitties are safe and found shelter.

    So far so good. It's -8 with a wind chill of -22 but the sun is out. That at least makes it look warmer. Going to warm up to 11 so they say. Not seen the outdoor kitties yet today but there are kitty paw prints in the snow so hopefully they are holed up near by.

    Thanks everyone, for all the prayers and well wishes. Now if the temps would just warm up and melt this snow!!! ps I HATE WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wow, I just got back my Internet, TV cable & phone. They are all from the same network provider. The electric and heat stayed on the whole time.
    I consider myself very lucky for that. It's now -12F with wind chill of -37 outside. I feel so sorry for the pups. They go outside when they need to but
    don't go more that 10ft from the door, then hurry back in.

    I put out food for the outside kitties last night & today. It's disappearing so somebody is eating it. Stay safe everyone.
