Calmer

 The weather calmed down a lot over night, but the temp did not go much higher than yesterday.   Thankful, we did not lose our power, my sister more than likely did, as when talking to her on the phone the line kept on cutting in and out and she said her lights were flashing on and off.  

Hubby blew some of the snow off the driveway and from the end at the street level, as the snow plow piled it up quite a lot.  It's frozen solid into little clumps, so very difficult to drive over.  

Only a few more days like this then towards the end of next week, we can expect rain, temps around 8*C. which will make one heck of a mess, possible flooding, from one extreme to another.   

Door bell rang yesterday afternoon, a bouquet of flowers from my second cousin in the UK.  he always sent flowers to Mum, my sister and I, and still does it for sis and me.   This could possibly the last year though as he is quite elderly and really not well.

Some prep done for Christmas dinner. anxiously waiting to see there are any changes happening tomorrow.

Just sitting down for awhile then start dinner for tonight.   

Merry Christmas.
