For the record. . .In case anyone had any doubts, I hate snow, ice and wind chills that leave one's nose, toes and fingers not only numb, but ready to snap off at the least provocation.

There were numerous rescue calls for slips and falls on the ice. I wasn't one of them and don't plan to be. I stayed in and plan to stay wrapped up in two layers of clothes and the down comforter. Seven below tonight with the high tomorrow ten. Maybe. Wind chills 20-30 below zero.

I did not send this stuff on to Cleveland. . .but it is hitting them with the same vigor it hit
us yesterday and today. So my prayers are with you all in Berea Rose for safety.


Joe called me from the land of palm trees and beaches and 70 degree temps and said it was thundering. Hard to sympathize with that although I do not wish severe weather on any one. So all, be safe.
