Our host is Gattina. Come join us and tell us what YOU did this past weekend! After all, you never know when you will need an alibi!

While others in New England were buried with the first of the season snowfall, Hubby and I woke on Sunday to discover that we only had gotten 5 inches of the heavy wet stuff. The wind was fierce, so it had blown the snow from the trees, and the leaves as well. It is quite off to go from autumn to winter in one day!
Upon calling my family in various parts of the northeast I discovered that my daughter had no power, and she had about 20 inches of snow. My sister had no power and she had more than 5 inches of snow and trees were down everywhere.
My cousin, also had no power, and I actually didn’t find out how much snow she had, as all of my contacts were done via texting.
Hubby got the driveway cleared, and I have been providing hot, nourishing meals, to keep him going. Fritz helped him. Isn’t he a faithful dog?
Not too much else, really. Just the usual, laundry, bad TV and a little too much time playing solitaire. Tell me…do you play solitaire on your computer?
Have a great week everyone!
Oh yes, Happy Halloween!!!
No, not solitaire, but Words with Friends on fb. You´ve got to try it, it´s so addicting and you can play with your friends. I´ll have to challenge you to a game.
Have a good week Maribeth!
We didn’t get that much snow. About 5 inches, but it was so heavy and wet and with the leaves on the trees it took down so many trees and branches and caused massive power outages and damage. We were without power for about 18 hours, thankfully we had the fireplace to keep us warm.
I play Spider Solitaire on my phone. I used to do solitaire on the computer, but I like this game better. Love YOU, Mel
We had about a foot and a half. Far too much for October! We have likely lost two big trees…still waiting on the tree guy. Thousands without power here but we have managed to keep ours all weekend. And no school today. Its crazy!
I saw this disaster on TV ! From green leaves directly to snow ! I couldn’t believe my eyes ! I thought of you and wondered if you also had such a lot of snow because they talked about your region too. Apparently you escaped the worst. Being without power must be horrible. What a strange weather !! Last week a blogger from NY complained that the trees were still green. I wonder if we will have the same over here.
Oh wow, can’t believe you had the first snow already… we still get 80F during the day here in CA 🙂
Heard about the snow in the USA.
We actually had brilliant autumn weather for the past 2 weeks.
Since the weekend it’s foggy in the mornings and only clearing up around lunch time – but at least we have autumn. It’s my favorite time of the year.
