    Here's hoping the predictions are wrong and it turns out not to be such a big storm. 

    We don't like to use them (and don't need them because we have a gas fireplace) but those Duraflame logs do put out some heat and will burn for about 3 hours, perhaps long enough to warm you up a bit.  No doubt those things are flying off the shelves up there, but if you can find some they would be better than nothing.  I will worry about you!  I am not a fan of being cold and actually hate winter, even here in the south! 

    We used to live in the Pacific NW and had frequent wind storms, which would often take out our power.  We soon learned that almost everyone in our neighborhood owned a portable generator and why.  When the power would go out, our street sounded like a construction zone with all the generators running.  My husband broke down and bought one and I don't think we had one long-lasting power outage after that.  The only time I remember using the thing was one evening when we were getting ready to go to a party and the power went out just as I stepped out of the shower with wet hair.  Hubby fired the thing up to power my blow dryer!  Laughing

    Oh, thanks, Martha. No need to worry about me. I am a New Englander and we are a hardy stock! LaCh, I don't mind curling up with a good book and my cat, but if I have no power.....it gets a little cold and creepy! I am heading out to find some firewood!

    Love the animals!

    These are my kitties - Bogart (black and white), Mulligan (yellow tabby), and Gushtil (I know, weird name - my beloved gray tabby). Mulligan's the only one still with us - Bogart and Gushtil are gone but they were both real sweeties.

    Matt, we kinda hijacked your thread - please don't feel it was intentional - pets sometimes do that to folks. Smile

    How're you doing, Matt?

    Thanks......Actually I must

    Thanks......Actually I must admit the picture was from 5 years ago, before the trauma of cancer, but was the only picture I could find of me and "Beaut" together that was half decent...... Still not really liking pictures of me with the pixie type haircut I now have (my chemo cut I call it). But as we all know, hair is not the most important issue in the world at this point. Smile

    Cute Kitties

    Love the picture of your kitties. I think anytime we can look at our fur babies it brings a smile to all our faces and I loved Sephe's idea of sharing pictures of them............

    how are you,matt????

    thinking of you and yes.  i did get off the subject with the pet photos.... so please do not think it is because i do not want to help you with the beating cancer in the butt project..... i am not very computer savy and just type in what i think of with out changing subjects.....  I hate that yours returned.... but the chemo (same i had) and the radiation will kill it.....   so hugs to  you.....sephie
