No, no heat for about 9 hours now. We have a gas fireplace in our living room. Thankfully, we have an open floor plan, so it keeps the kitchen, dining and living room warm enough. The rest of the house is about 55-56 degrees, with the current outdoor temperature at 26F and tonight will be 2F.

We can't do much until we get at least one snowplow pass on the road. Even though hubby used the snow blower to get rid of about six inches rather early in the storm, within the next two hours, it was back up to six inches again. We just decided to wait a bit. It looks like it will take several hours-long sessions to get our very small driveway cleared.

The two bigger problem is now the drifting and blowing snow, creating snow drifts of 6-7 feet, and trying to figure out where to put it.

Thanks for the kind thoughts. I ask that you think about and/or pray for everyone in this area. We have a long way to go.

I wanted to share another photo - what greeted us this morning when we opening the garage to start up the snowblower...
