Hi!!
It's a blustery, no-good, cold, nasty, windy, rainy, stay inside kind of day here. We went to Niagara Falls before 9 and did what we needed to do. Bonus was that we saw a doe walking slowly down a side street on our way to the first grocery store that we went to just along the parkway near the whirlpool rapids.
There are numerous power outages within the Niagara peninsula area. Mainly Port Colbourne and St. Catharines. The radio station we listen to is in Port Colbourne and they are keeping everyone updated in the area. I have my phone charging and dh has a nice fire going.
We bought a new smoke detector/CO 2 last week that has a voice that also lets you know if there is smoke or fire detected along with the high pitched buzzer. Guess what? It works! I opened the oven door and something had dripped on to the bottom and it was smoky. That darn thing wouldn't stop telling me there was a fire. There was no actual fire, but lots of smoke. I have cleaned my oven at least twice since then and I am doing it again today. It's a small area on the bottom of the oven smaller than a regular plate, but it won't come off.
We planned on having steak but it's too windy for a BBQ. I also stayed home from knitting today.
Dishes never stop.
Laundry never stops.
Paper never stops.
