Merry Christmas, Michael. Thank you for giving all of us a place to ask questions and learn, share our daycare experiences and vent our frustrations. Happy New Year, too!

While it was Merry here in Moorpark the temp was 81F today. I would have preferred a cold, white Christmas instead

We got a blizzard! Worst storm I've ever seen in my lifetime.

You okay? I know some areas are in a lot of trouble with that storm.

[e.j.]

Are you in the Buffalo area? If so, you got a crazy amount of snow! I hope you're doing ok.

[GirlMomma]

Are you okay? I have been thinking of you.

Yes, I live in a suburb near Buffalo. We got hammered. I had my daughter come stay with us from Thursday on because she lives and goes to college at Canisius.
People did not listen and take it serious. Lots of folks stranded on roads. Weather stations warned to be wherever you had to be by Friday morning. Sadly 30 have died in the blizzard.
We never lost power and I am beyond grateful. Wind gusts of almost 80 mph Friday and Saturday with sustained wind speeds of 30-35 mph.

It's so sad that so many lost their lives. Glad to hear you and your family are safe and that you didn't lose power. That truly is something to be grateful for in such cold temperatures and fierce winds.

As a northern Minnesotan that endures harsh winters every year, I totally understand blizzards and those blizzards that are odd to the area so stay safe!
I am sending prayers for you and everyone around you 🥰

I hope you had Merry Christmas!

We got down to 1 degree, then around 8 for a few days. We did not really know what to do with that if it continued long-term. The power company was belligerently demanding everyone cut their usage or they would do rolling blackouts and descend into our social media platforms with public shaming. I enjoyed the irony of the state pushing electric vehicles with the other side of its mouth while allowing yet another 12% increase in power bills. I am currently at $422 for 1500 square feet, total, one level. We did lose power a few times, but never more than an hour or two.

I bought a propane, tabletop griddle to add to my arsenal. That I am going to enjoy, I think.

We are up to a whopping 12, now. Happily, I am not supposed to take them out in it. Our gear is simply not up to it. It should be back in the 50's soon.

We have a generator and we have a gas fireplace that can run for many hours on 2 D batteries. I got a small space heater for my foster kitten room that currently has a mom cat who gave birth to her 5 kittens on Christmas Day.
We get ridiculous wind storms here that come right out of the southwest at least 4-5 times a year. The city of Buffalo is still under a strict military driving ban. Some still have no power.

I was unaware of what happened in Buffalo yesterday. Wow, that was awful.
