	This is Sanctuary Control: we have ice. Just checked. There is ice on the front steps...

	We've had freezing rain off and on all evening. For a while it was raining hard enough to hear from inside the house and the satellite signal went way down but it's lightened up again. Skywise isn't home yet and I'm mentally walking the floor. I'd be physically pacing but my knee has FINALLY stopped hurting and I don't want to get it started again! So I'm going to get my journal and get caught up.... I'll post again when he gets home.

	Skywise called. He's almost home and since I'm ready to fold, I'm out for the night. Maybe longer, depends on the weather. Until I can get back, everyone sleep well, stay warm and be safe.

	Morning. Skywise got home about 10 minutes after my last post. It's rough out there and we're waiting for the next wave to arrive. Happy day. So far so good.

	In case that anyone from USS checks over here: I've been unable to connect to USS this morning although I'm not having connection problems anywhere else. I'll keep trying though.

	Skywise is getting ready to leave for work. I'm a basket case. I'll be so glad when he is retired and he can stay HOME during this kind of weather! I was able to get to USS's index page and then to the "new posts" list but that is as far as I was able to get. Guess all the bugs aren't out of it yet.

	Skywise is on his way. The wind has picked up and the "weather" is moving into the state. I am a wreck. I'll be back later, weather and power availability permitting.

	I think that the worst is over. All the different radars agree that the back edge of the freezing rain is moving past this area right now. The wind has died considerably so the danger of falling trees and power lines is greatly reduced. The temperature is hovering at 32 degrees which isn't good but at least the rain has stopped. Maybe it will help the ice fall off the trees. I'm assuming that Skywise will call either when he's ready to start home or at some point along the way if conditions permit. I will be a basketcase until he's in the door....

	Spoke too soon. We have rain, 34 degrees temp and wind. sigh Skywise can get home just any time now....

	It's windy as hell, ice is falling on the roof and Skywise is home. I can deal now. Everyone sleep well, stay warm and if you're catching hell from this storm, stay safe! Post # 17,100

	Morning! It's quiet at the moment. 22 degrees in town and so far, nothing much is falling out of the sky today. It wasn't as bad as predicted but we're still expecting wind and more snow. Skywise hasn't decided if he's going to work or not.

	Skywise is back from his damage survey. Nothing major so far. We have a lot of small to medium pieces of tree down in the yard, the largest of which fortunately missed the van, and that is about it. The girls and I were nervous wrecks last night 'cause it warmed up a bit and the wind was sending showers of ice down on the roof along with a few small branches. It was unnerving not knowing for sure what it was. More snow and wind is forecast for today. sigh I need tea....

	Skywise decided to go to work. He called when he got there and reported that the roads were in decent shape so we'll likely be able to get out of here tomorrow which will thrill Spirit. Her SSI check came on the 1st and we haven't been able to get to the bank to cash it. MOST unhappy Spirit! If she didn't have "cabin fever ants in her pants" so bad, we'd wait until Friday when we'll have Skywise's paycheck too but if we try to get her to wait another day, we may have an insurrection on our hands and that won't do. So.... off we will go tomorrow. And again on Friday...

	I took a nap -- which I really needed and which made the War Queen very happy -- and now I'm ready to face the rest of the evening. A repeat of Smallville is on tonight and I'll be watching that. I'll also have the YaHoo on in case Nike comes on before Smallville is over. Friday will be a much awaited new episode which begins the eleven episode dash to the Series' Finale in May. sniff I'll be sad to see it go but hey, how many 'genre' shows last for 10 years? This fangirl has no complaints.

	Dinner is cooking and for the first time this week, I am NOT a nervous wreck. I was able to do a little work on one of my "non-writing" projects today and since the danger of power outage is over, I'll be getting back to work on Book 3. I "think" I've figured out how to get Our Heroine out of the constitution writing biz and back into her lover's bed. THAT is a lot more fun to write, let me tell you!

	Skywise is home. There is no nasty weather either bearing down on us or beating down on us tonight. Time for bed, thank the Immortal Gods!! Everyone sleep well, stay warm and be safe.

	Morning! What's happening is that USS has apparently gone "poof" this morning. We're currently trying to find out why. More later when I know more. Right now, getting the van out of the driveway -- which is an ice sheet -- is also on my "URGENT" list! USS members, come in and make yourselves at home.

	I'm back! We managed to navigate our driveway and make it to town and back. The bank branch we use was closed so we couldn't cash the girls' checks but Skywise gets paid tonight so we'll make another stab at it tomorrow. USS apparently crashed during the night. I don't think that the picture I posted in the Adult Forum of myself in pasties caused the crash although I find the timing suspicious. 1111 and the HostMonster people are investigating. No word on any progress yet.

	I do believe I am going through USS withdrawals Never realize how much you use a site until it's down Have pizza in the oven however so that should help some with distracting me

	I've been going bonkers since I discovered USS was down!!! I'm trying to keep distracted by talking to USS members in the Facebook group and other sites we have in common, but it's not quite the same. I'm just thankful that Penth has invited all of us over here to hang out. Hopefully 1111 and the site server will figure things out soon and get things back to normal ASAP. CROSSING FINGERS

	I've been going bonkers, period! Between turbo-charged furpersons, getting us out of here and then assuring Spirit that somehow, SOMEWAY her check will get cashed, it's been a crazy making morning. And from the sound of things coming from the direction of the cats, the afternoon is gonna be more of the same!

	Sounds a lot like my house today... The little guy is home because school was canceled AGAIN today, the ebil three (cats) are going nuts... Noelle has landed on my head several times already... And to top it off, the dog picks today to start chasing Amber around the house!!! And I thought Miss Birdie was silly when she was still around... These three make her look like a NORMAL cat!!!

	Yeah, the only time it is quiet around here is when the kids and the cats are asleep! Which reminds me. I need to wash our bedspread. The War Queen hurled on it last night JUST as we were getting ready to go to bed. sigh

	Eww... Cat barf!!! GAGS Our cats are not allowed into the bedroom because they do that... Noelle and Angel are terrible for hacking up the nastiest stuff I swear!! We never have quiet here unless the little guy and all of the pets are asleep either. Heck even Hubby can make a lot of noise when he's around so I'm bombarded with a lot of noise all of the time unless everyone's asleep or gone. Amber just zoomed past my computer chair. Gods, more furry zaniness, just what I needed!!!
