It was -8* when I got up this morning. The snow expected at midnight is just now starting to fall. What will you do today? Are you cooking Sunday dinner? What will you eat?

Steve's going into the office for a few hours today. I think I'll make some maple oatmeal cookies. The kitchen could use some heat from the oven today. Supper will probably be homemade pizza. I still haven't finished the seed orders so I'll work on that, sort through a half bushel basket of seeds, write a letter or two and probably play Uno.

I need to schlepp out to Sullivan and take some pictures of some tools that a guy wants to buy. After that, I will sift through more accumulated stuff in my study and pitch a lot of it into very large plastic bags for the transfer station.

My wife and I will watch the early football game, and I might get fired up enough to go outside and fire up the barbecue to do some chops for dinner.

I will also heavily debate whether or not I really want to put on the plow again, and spend most of the day trying to convince myself that this snow will not amount to much, and I needn't bother. In the end, if it continues into the mid afternoon, cursing all the way, I will go out and mount the plow and plow the roads.

Let's see.... I've got chili to make that's going out to one of Amy's friends' dorm room... they're all getting together for the afternoon. DH is at work Michael is all ready at work... Jake is having a friend over later. I want to finish changing my bedroom around. I haven't done any baking in almost a week .... a fact that I'm constantly being reminded of, so I should make something... what I *really* want to do is sit in the chair by the fireplace and read! Oh, I do have a date for after supper--Star Wars Monopoly with Jake! Now I heard on channel 2 (WLBZ) they changed our forecast! I haven't checked that with anything else.... but did the storm track change? I hope not! Oh, I'll have to go get Katy later and bring her home too.

hubby was up and out the door at 4:30 this morning to take the oldest to work- she really hates driving in snow and someone has to make the donuts. bonus for me, i got to sleep in (yeah!)
i'll do a little cleaning around the house and then make some donuts or something for the boys when they get done plowing after the snow is done and then i'll go watch football.
hubby said the forecast did change- its only supposed to be a couple inches now instead of 8. o well.
