Good grief, QM. Hang in there and good luck to your fellow Okies.

Good to hear from you QM! We are hearing that there are over 1000 power poles down. My power went out very quickly at the start of the storm and hasn't been restored yet.
We might see a lot of babies born around Thanksgiving this year?!

We were almost disappointed that we only got 3-4" (not really). They had built it up that we would get what you got. Then....pffft! Glad you weathered it, but the folks from western Oklahoma are tough stock! I guess on the upside, all that moisture will have a chance to soak in and help the short term drought. Its going to take a lot more to bring it back up to normal though.

I just looked outside to see how much snow has fallen...would you believe that when it is 75 degrees and sunny that it not only doesn't accumulate, but it doesn't even fall? This is so unfair...

Wow, Happy. You're so lucky. It's only supposed to get up to 68 today. If is weren't for the sunny skies, I'd be half frozen to death.

I will gladly share snow with anyone. I still have a drift waist high in front of my front door. My back wouldn't let me tackle that one too. well, waist high is relative...if it is Shaquille O'neal waist, that is an issue...if Tom Thumb waist, hardly worth discussing

hope you're wearing sunglasses, the glare from my balding head is rough, although through the smoke-induced-unfiltered-Camel haze you probably think every day is cloudy Really fixed for accuracy.

QM - I hope you have power back on. Day 4 and I'm ready for mine to come back on. It was 61 degrees in my house this morning. We do have a generator, but it is not big enough to run the entire house. At least we have hot water for a shower. I'm luckier that some others so I won't whine tooooo loud.

No power for a few hours is an adventure. No power for days (or weeks) is a pita! The ice storm about 6 years ago left us on generator for two weeks. But as you say, at least we had one. How bout it QM, you off of candle power yet?
