Ice Storm...WOW
Well, we are having an ice storm today, STILL and it all started yesterday. I can not get in my truck yet. Grandpa had to work for over two hours to get in his truck to go to work this morning. WOW! I just remembered that I had alcohol and it will thaw just as well as any of those chemicals that they sell for thawing. DUH.......
Well, I ran out and sprayed my truck door with Alcohol and it is working. Slowly, but it is working.
While I was outside, I walked around our yard and took pictures of our trees. They are so beautiful, yet so broken....Awe.... We will be having to clean up some when all this ice goes away, but not as badly as I had first thought. Most of our branches are still bending and not to the breaking off point. Thank God.
My Daddy (Grandad) called me early and told me to stay in the house and out of this stuff. I said "Yes Daddy, I will". He still has to watch over us girls. Bless his heart.
I have finally heard from all of my children. Danny called me and he made it up here to work and is going to go home early, that is good. Angels emailed me and the older children are in school and she and Jacob are nice and warm at home.
Thomas had some car trouble, but his friend Bob came to his rescue and got him to work. Thomas and Grandpa will go over and work on his car when Grandpa gets off work. Reba called to check up on me and let me know that she and Whitley are ok and still have power also. Bless their hearts, her Mom doesn't have any power and her grandpa doesn't. However, they do have fire places so that will help them a little. I pray that they get their power on soon.
Joy just called and I know that she is safely at work and James was able to stay home with the children.
Grandpa was able to finally get to work after a couple of hours of thawing out his truck. They had 10 people not come to work and another 6 were leaving at noon. He said that he was staying around and getting paid for just being there. Easy money is what he called it. LOL I can't blame him for that.
I am home and toasty in the living room. The moisture has stopped falling here for the moment, an some things are actually thawing a little.
Well, I am going to go and get something done around here.
All is well and we are blessed, even if it is COLD out side. I have the Hot Chocolate ready and waiting for anyone that wants it. LOL
