January 5, 2025. Snow Watch

  

It looks like snow and the temperature is perfect for it. We are under a winter weather advisory. I have needed some sort of alternate heat source. There are fireplaces here but I haven't had a chimney sweep in yet to check them so not smart to use them until they've been inspected. I have no way of knowing how many years it's been since there has been a fire in them. I've had this house almost 6 years and I haven't had one yet. A friend mentioned a portable propane heater for indoor use, so I had one delivered yesterday. I'm relieved to have something as a backup. 

I have given in and started ordering groceries and having them delivered. Doesn't look like I'm going to be driving any time soon. My neighbors are wonderful to offer to bring things in but I feel better being able to order whatever whenever and have to impose on anyone. 

It's now 10:25 a.m. and it has just started snowing. A very fine snow, the kind that likes to start tiny and end up laying a deep snow.  It's 1:00 p.m. now and it looks like we are finished with the snow. We were just on the edge of it.

I have been hunkering down for two days missing doctors appointments, but they were closed anyway! Eating lots of soups.
