Subject: BS: ICE - the winter kind
I left work a few minutes early because they were talking about icy roads. SHEESH! I nearly broke my neck walking half a block to the parking garage. The sidewalks are sheets of ice about 1/4" thick and clear. Home now after a graceful slip and slide across my driveway and a thoroughly embarrassing crawl up the front steps - even the railing is coated with thick clear ice. The weather reports are really bad - ice, sleet, rain, and more ice.
Power outages expected. I have flashlights and batteries and lots of canned soup, but horror of horrors I am out of cat treats. Anybody else hunkering down?
