Hi Tina & Ellie,

Tina, thanks for thinking of me and your tips on hot water.

Our last storm gave us 6 inches of snow and very slippery driving. I was lucky as Michael (my ex husband) drove me to my daughter's house as it was my 2 days in a row to watch Kaitlyn. It was a long day as I had to wait for him to give me a ride back. The driving was bad for 2 days.

Today starting late evening into all day Sunday, we are 100% sure that we are going to have a major Nor'Easter with a foot of snow or more with freezing rain in the mix. It does not sound good and I hope we do not lose power for any length of time. I worry about frozen pipes if that happens.

I am happy to report that both you and Ellie put me in the holiday mood and with Kaitlyn's help decorated my tree.
I also have written some of my Christmas cards. I have relatives in Germany and Italy so I made sure that those were written first. I plan to write the rest tomorrow as we will be homebound.

I baked 24 christmas cupcakes for Kaitlyn's party on Monday at her other sitter's house. The sitter is a dear high school friend of mine. She use to run a nursery school,but now only watches Kaitlyn and one other child.

Today, I went with my daughter and Kaitlyn to Kaleidoscope (this is a children's play area). I think I have mentioned it before. There is a play kitchen, pizza shop, fire engine, indoor slide, pet shop, beauty shop, puppet show area, dress up stage and painting area too. We had not been there for quite a while. After that we went for lunch at "Friendly's Restaurant. Then we went to visit Michael (Kaitlyn's Papo) at his apartment. He had his Christmas decorations up and had a Snowman Santa who sang a song.

After I came back home, I went out to buy some gas and groceries. It was late afternoon by the time I got home.
I don't think I will be doing much this evening as I am tired out from 3 days of sitting this week and running around all day today.

Ellie, I hope you are having good weather and enjoying your warm weather. You are probably getting ready for your son and family's visit soon.

Wishing you both a good week and will write again after our
snowstorm.

Phyllis
