Hey guys..Sorry I wasn't on yestarday. Got a phone call early in the morning. My mom was in the emergency room and had to have surgery on her arm. She fell and ripped a gash in her left forearm. She had a hematoma..and is still in the hospital. She is doing well and should be home soon. Other than that all is well..Have a great day!! :wink:

Well, we got 9 inches of snow here and we are supposed to get 3-5 more inches tonight. but we are the lucky ones. Just about 35 miles south of us they got about 2 inches of solid ice. There is a state of emergency declared in that county (Oswego County) and nobody is allowed in the city except residents. Over 100,000 people without power, and they are saying it could be days before the power gets turned back on. The middle school has been turned into an emergency shelter for those that dont have heat. Wow.
