This fascinated me "grocery with empty shelves setting up zig-saw puzzle" I do not think I "get" it.

Two separate ideas, Caren. I went to the grocery. I set up a zigsaw puzzle. Each line is separate. Okay, okay, so I need to clarify it.

Thanks, Paulette. I just hope our power doesn't go out...as it may well. Although I love the warmth of the fireplace, it is too dim for writing, and I have long forgotten how to use a pen and paper! I am so wed to the computer!

there's always so much hype before a storm, milton, and sometimes it's all for naught. fingers crossed that this is the case this time if not, at least you're prepared...

Oh, I so hope you are right, Ilene, and I agree that many times they predict the worst, but we get nothing near it.

That seems to be the case, Tom. I think I have enough to survive for a few days. If my electricity goes out, I'll have my gas fireplace to keep me warm. Thanks!
