We have another snow day today. This makes for the third one this week. The kids seem to be handling it well. I just don't want to have to go to July for school, Braden won't be able to go that long, because we have Youth Conference at the end of June and he is wanting to come out to EFY at the beginning of July. Anyway, we had 23 inches of snow on Sunday and now we have about two more, with more to come throughout the day. It is a good thing that I grew up in snowy weather and have lived in blizzard like conditions before. I think I would go crazy if I had come from California, or Florida like some of our friends. The land of eternal sunshine this is not.
I am very thankful for a snowblower. The snow drifts on Sunday were so deep in places that we had to plow, pull the blower back, let the snow cave in and then plow again. Our blower in over two feet tall, that meant that the snow had blown to drifts over 28 inches. We aren't as bad as some of the people in the Stake who have had over three feet of snow. We have had power the whole time, which is more than a lot of people in our Stake. We have been very blessed. The children thank the Lord nightly that we have power and heat in our homes. That makes me very happy that they feel that they have been blessed as well.
Thank you for keeping us informed about David and family. It is good that you and Barbara communicate. Funny how things tend to make or break people and we do want some good to come out of this situation.
Take care of yourself. You need to do that, or this could destroy your cholesterol and your stomach. Get some rest.
I love you!
Melanie
