Day nine of this winter storm and it’s really starting to get old now. I’ve been watching the weather report – which isn’t difficult since the news channels are covering the storm 24/7 – and it seemed that Tuesday was going to provide a brief break in the weather. So Thomas and I joined our Neighbor and her son in a little trek to the grocery store. I don’t think I could have got the car out of the street if I’d tried so it was an adventure on foot.

I was so grateful to get out of the house that I didn’t mind that it took about two and a half hours to get two bags of groceries. The main thing is that I got everything I needed for Christmas and we restocked our supply of essentials like milk and bread…and red wine.

Thomas and his friend decided to make snow angels when we got home.

And I took photos of the icicles.
