    Here we are buried in deep. Couldn't get out of here with anything but a snow sled. We have about 20 inches and growing. Wind is picking up. Still with Blizzard watch/warning conditions. Got to keep watch on our stove vents to make sure they don't become obstructed. My daughters are scheduled to work at the VA hospital today. Sent them a text to see if they were able to make it in.
    Nothing we can do here but stay inside and wait for it all to wind up tonight. Another 6 inches predicted for today. I'm 70 and not in the best shape, so I won't do anything except hire it done if my son isn't able to handle it with his equipment.

    Sons says something about rain Wednesday so he wants to get the roof rake out before that.

    What is "cast" or "casting" with computers. I am wading through learning to download and use music and it keeps asking it I want to. I read a message here, was that with you SmokeyTheBear ?

    That pure sine UPS code is still valid in case anyone was on the fence. I just ordered mine. Came in handy, too. An older UPS I had just had the battery die and its 3/4 of the price of the better unit to replace the battery.

    The weather man is saying that this snow we continue to get are from a band. Well, I am sick of that band. It is NOT music to my ears. It is as annoying as my tinnitus! We have over 3 ft of snow from this storm and the ones a few days ago. Worse yet, the band will play again this Wed and Thu. with several more inches. :hair:

    It is simply sending even more crap to your TV. Do a Google search on CAST for giggles. Miracast allows your TV to show what is shown on your phone screen on your TV etc,,

    There was another one for the 1000 at 99.00 a few days earlier as well but that was a 24 hour sale and I missed out on it.

    The friggin snow won't quit up here. Today was much worse than yesterday. No idea how much we have because it's drifting so bad. Son has plowed 3 times already and coming back again. I read Pete's warning last night about making sure your exhast and OAK were clear. I went to bed knowing mine were. Well late this morning I noticed the stove was running like crap. Looked out the back door of the garage and realized a 5 foot drift had covered them both. Well I had no choice but to shovel a path and clear them both. I had to rescue my stove.

    Once this one ends we get a day to clean up before we get another 8-12 inches Wed-Thurs. Running out of room for this chit.

    I should get a picture of them in the snow. The young one loves it if the kids are our playing, otherwise she wants in the house right after she is finished with what she went out for. The old man is full of arthritis, but he limps along. Loves to play with the kids, will roll in the snow then come in with his thick snow covered fur coat. I have him on some meds to mask his pain. Seems to help a lot. Neither of them like the wind. Lots of times I can let them out and just wait by the door because they will be back within 5 minutes. Just love those critters. they keep be going.
