    Default Please pray for all of us during this terrible Snow Storm

    I'm really scared of this storm...We are without power (Thank Goodness we have a generator) and not sure when we will be restored along with million's of others that I read are also without power..I'm holding back the tears as I see my one Big Beautiful Red Maple Tree has not shed her fur coat for winter yet and she is hanging real heavy and the storm hasn't even really hit us yet (even though the forcast saaid we would see up to 5 inches by midnight and here it is 6:00 and we already have 5 plus inches.. I'm sure she will be damaged by morning.....My poor Fruit trees,Lilac tree and my Bridlewood bush are also hanging so I was able to shake most of the snow off of them...I'm worried that a tree will fall on our house as we are surrounded by them..My middle son is at work and each hour that goes by get's worse & worse...I hope he call's me soon so I can get him home safe...I pray everyone stay's safe..............................HUGS..........................

    I was glad to read that at least the three of you are all together under the same roof! That's a relief in itself.

    So please stay indoors, and safe and warm, and we'll all be hoping that the storm will pass over quickly. I'm sure too that your local city's sanitation dept is armed and ready with snow trucks, etc., and will be keeping the roads as clear as possible.

    Please keep us up-dated. And so glad you were prepared with owning a generator. I'm sure you agree that it's one of the smartest investments you can make. So "kudos" on that!

    Hugs!!

    Theresa
