So....
I know I wasn't going to discuss the weather...But...
My daughter walked into the dining room and said "mom, why is the dining room table full of water?"
We have a leak through the attic/roof. Thank goodness the new roof rake just came in yesterday. We did the back of the house yesterday and today, my son got on the front half of the roof and knocked the snow off - it took a few hours, there was so much! Then, my daughter and I had to shovel all the snow he knocked off the roof. It is all done now. The leak in the dining room has slowed down, but the ceiling of the dining room doesn't look too good.
I seriously hate this weather.......

The aftermath of the storm
My son's new car got hit yesterday. It was just a fender bender, but a woman backed out of her driveway because she couldn't see over the piles of this snow and my son just happened to be coming down the street...
My other son got out of work at 11:30 pm at night...attempted to get home, got as far as our hill and couldn't make it up (8 inches of snow at that point). Slid back down the hill and parked at the grocery store parking lot, BUT forgot he left his hazard lights on. Started to walk home and someone gave him a ride up the hill. We went to start his car at noon yesterday and it was dead, so my hubby was able to come and jump the battery. My daughter doesn't have school again (yesterday or today) - 5 days off so far this winter and April vacation will start to be shortened! Same with all the other schools in this area.
The weathermen are saying this is the worse January on record EVER and that this is the highest total of snow for any month in CT ever. Aren't we so lucky!!
And I think I am DONE talking about the weather this week.........I have to move on :)

And more snow!
We got four inches yesterday morning into the afternoon. I left work at 1:00 to come home.
Overnight, we got 14 more inches.
Total = 18 inches of snow and no place to put it!!!!!!!!
My daughter and I have been shoveling for a couple of hours.
I am waiting for the plow to do the driveway. I cannot get out right now. Hopefully, I can go into work for 1:00 today............I will try to post pictures later!

Verse
I saw this verse posted twice in the last two days on two totally separate and different types of blogs....I think it is speaking to me, although I'm not sure why yet:
Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers,
for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
Hebrews 13:2
