Wow! We are waiting on one of the worst winter storms in 30 years tonight! And, let me tell you, if you were out and about today, you KNOW something big is coming!
We did prepare for the storm. We bought way too many groceries. We have a big stockpile of toilet paper & milk. I'm not sure why - but isn't that what you buy in a snowstorm??? We've spent WAY too much of our lives listening to & watching weather forcasts on the TV, radio & internet. Again, I'm not sure why - but isn't that what you do before a snowstorm? We've charged all of our rechargeable stuff, bought spare batteries & bottled up plenty of water. We are ready. Red Dirt Ready! :) (If you don't live in OK, I apologize - it's a disaster preparedness campaign that I think is ludicrous.)
Something that I don't understand is the need for huge quantities of beer. Every time I've been to the store since Saturday, I see people loading up their carts with beer - beer & chips. Am I missing something? I didn't stock up on beer or chips. I got a bunch of green bananas - but I missed out on the beer. Somebody help me understand! Should I run out really quick and get some? Does it stop my pipes from freezing, or melt snow off the front steps? There must be something to it......
Well, I'm currently trying to calm my kids down and put them in bed. They are so hyped up I'm having to peel them off the ceilings to get them to bed. Maybe people are using the beer to.......nah....probably not.
