Second snow of the year

DOGS ROMPING IN THE SNOW
 We had several days warning that a winter storm was coming. That gave us all time to rush to the grocery store and load up on bread and milk. It takes no time for the already half empty shelves to completely empty out. I am not worried about running out of food, the real fear is loss of power. If the electricity goes out--which is always a possibility during any kind of storm--we will have no way to cook or keep warm. And it's unbearably BORING sitting around in the cold, dark with nothing to do. The ice and snow started early Sunday morning and continued most of the day. Things thawed out a bit on Monday (MLK holiday), but froze up again overnight. It looks like it will be a dry week, but a cold one.

We spent most of the weekend binge watching a series "Raised by Wolves." It is awesome! So interesting, smart, beautifully filmed, with excellent effects and great acting. It's a refreshing change from our usual fare. We've been watching a lot of bad movies lately--on purpose. Low-budget, grade B movies from the 50s and 60s mostly. Some of them show up on "MST3K" and "Rifftrax". Others we randomly find on YouTube. But after that, we need to see something really good, you know, to cleanse the palate, so to speak. 

So, that was that for my 3 day weekend. It's back to work today.
