Today on the news the weatherman told us we had 44 inches of snow so far the month of January, close to the record of 47 inches. OK, I knew this. Charlie has been busy snow blowing not only here but at his parents, to help out. I have a photo of his parents home sign on their front lawn and the depth of snow on their driveway from the latest snowfall of 26 inches. 
All the years they have lived there, more than 16 years, the snow has never gotten this high. The weatherman also told us that in January we only had 5 days above zero! This I knew also because my old bones and surgical sites have been informing me of this. Oh, what to do!!! Last year in January I flew off to Florida to join my mother for warmer weather. This year I couldn't do that. Weddings, 3 of them in 18 months, can put a crimp on the budget, not to mention the economy right now!
Well, my son, Chuck, has my relief coming up. March 1st!!!! Looking forward to it!!! Off to Indonesia I will go. 5 degrees off of the Equator and grandchildren to boot. Charlie got to go last fall, so now it is my turn. Happiness ahead if I can only survive the cold. Brrrr!
