Good afternoon!

Here, the sun is out, and we've hit the double digits F. No snow yet. It is supposed to warm up into the teens overnight and start snowing, and snowing, and snowing. The amount predicted keeps growing. Currently, the estimate is 8", more in the snow belt. I'm sure people in Buffalo are laughing as if it was nothing. (It's not a snowstorm there unless it's measured in feet.) They are asking people to stay off the roads tomorrow. Our moms' brunch tomorrow is becoming breakfast-for-dinner tonight.

Because of the sudden switch in time, I had to hop out of bed straight to the kitchen to start preparing the French toast casserole I'm bringing -- it's supposed to sit overnight, so I wanted to give it as much time as I could. My ankles are still screaming at me, though, for so much standing before they were even warmed up.

We are scheduled to run the livestream at Mass tonight. I am praying that everything goes without a hitch; with everyone advised to stay home tomorrow, I'm sure we'll have more people depending on us. So the plan is to drop the unbaked casserole off at dfriend K's house (she is hosting tonight and lives about a block from the church), then head over to the church. She will get it into the oven, and DH will drop me back there when church is over and pick me up when we are done.

AAAAAH! I just realized I never mixed the milk into the egg mixture for the casserole! :oops: I just poured it over now. I guess we'll see how it takes. I am not particularly hopeful. :? I need to get the blueberry syrup for topping it ready soon; we need to leave in an hour.

So glad to hear the ice is staying away from you, lucylee!

Cold and a little bit of freezing rain but our temp is due to rise overnight so we'll be fine. I've stamped a little and piddled a little. A little unsettled. I just started an online webinar on Airtable from the NGS. Missed it back in December but it's online to view and download syllabus.

I'll pause it later and walk the ddog.

DBro called and said he is going stir crazy being indoors. I told him that he survived 30 days of being in isolation in a hospital room (when he had stem cell transplant) so quit being dramatic about a little snow. I am such a good sister. LOL.

I seem to be alternating between pacing my cage (house) and chilling out underneath cozy blankets while in the recliner. I honestly don't know how I survived working indoors for so many decades. Mostly likely because most of those hours stuck indoors were sandwiched between being outdoors before and after payroll.

I distracted myself by cooking a pan of chicken parmesan and garlic bread from scratch. Worth it!

Dh moved his truck and then he moved the tractor and ATV out of the garage. I put my car in. Dh put the ATV back and then he put the snowblower in so it was facing out towards the driveway so it will be ready if needed. My car could happily stay in there for the next 2 months. Unfortunately I don't always love driving the truck. The parking lots aren't all pick up friendly around here, which is funny because it's always been a farming community.

I brought in some stuff for supper tomorrow night plus a bag of blackberries that will go nicely on vanilla ice cream. I've left some out to defrost.
