Ice in McDonough

icy house in McDonough

Whew! The ice storm this weekend was a pain, but we handled it OK. Sue's sister Nancy and Sue's mother had to endure the pain of ice, snow, and no power with us, but it was fun time. We don't often get to stop and play games by candlelight with Nancy and Mom Emery, so it was a rare treat! :-) I'm glad they were able to come and surprise Sue for her birthday -- they made the whole event that much more special!

Now the power's back on (praise the Lord! it was off for about 24 hours), so we should be OK. The kids are grumbling because school will probably be happening as normal (boo!), but that's a good thing -- they need to learn as much as they can. I hope the weather isn't messing you up in whatever you may be doing!

Back to normal

Now that the holidays are over we have gotten back to normal here. Sue is busily going here and there with the kids, the kids are busily doing homework, practicing piano, going to gymnastics and basketball, and I'm busily working. Ah, it's good to be back to normal!

We will be celebrating Sue's birthday later on this month - call or email her if you get the chance. Hope everything is going good in your part of the planet!
