Perhaps They Are Wrong

Several days ago I wrote about our weather people creating hysteria around snow. Yet today there is a real blizzard warning. I confess I immediately move into high level alert mode. Check out batteries. We have Ds for the flashlights, Cs for the radio, AA, and AAA., matches for candles, candles for matches, peanut butter, chips, peanuts, bread, tuna fish and dried food.

Tomorrow I'll charge every electronic device, go to the library to find more books to read. And I'll try not to worry about losing electricity. Several years ago we lost electricity for four days and in the 1978 blizzard, when I lived in Maryland, our electricity was out for a week.

The question became, " Do I brave a cold shower?"
