A Different Way of Getting Rid of Snow

Most big towns have snow plows going up and down their streets to get rid of the snow. Our tiny little town has a John Deere tractor with a plow in front of it. Still gets the job done but in a more amusing way. LOL

In The Dark

I am sitting in the dark with no electricity for over 2 hours. How is it possible that I am posting now? Well, the phone works so I called Annette to type this for me. haha
My parents are sitting in the living room with candles talking about 'good ol' times'. They are talking about ' grandma's featherbed' and hating to get out of bed on the cold mornings. You would get tucked in so snug you couldn't move during the night.
Taking a shower in the dark is fun. If I missed any spots I'll see if when the lights come back on.
The WHOLE town is dark and given our population that ain't much. LOL
Even my black cat that goes out at night is freaking out because she doesn't know if she is indoors or outside. It is hard to find her too. I think she is going to hide until the fear of us stepping on her in the dark subsides.
I am eating take out by candlelight and since I am alone in the kitchen it doesn't seem so romantic as I picture other candlelight dinners. I could think of someone to share the candlelight with but he is too far away now. lol (it starts with the letter ____)
Mom and Dad have stopped talking and he is now reading the newspaper by candlelight. Hope he doesn't get too close to the flame. Then he will be one HOT Daddy. haha
