Did you have to deal with the big winter storm that's hitting many places with snow, freezing rain, and high winds? How did you make out? Did you have to go without hydro?

Been having crazy weather here in Ohio. One day it's springlike, the next we got blizzard-like weather. The ice? OH, don't get me started on the ice. But, I did get some cool pictures.

So far this year no power outages .Where I live in Kentucky when your power goes ,it don't get back on very fast. A couple of years ago we had a bad ice storm and the power was out for two and a half weeks. I was so sick of eating sandwichs ! And the first morning my husband's lung collapsed and we like to have never gotten him out of the hollar where we live to meet a ambulance.We had to stop two times to cut a tree out of the road.I seriously thought he was dying on me, so I panicked and ran to the end of the road and had the EMT's to run back with me to him.He had to spend a week in the hospital WITH electric ! I teased him that he planned it.It still is a joke with everyone here, if the weather tries to get bad people calls and asks hows Jason doing?And the night before he tells me to pack him a overnight bag to be ready.But so far no really bad weather.Right now hard winds is our problem. It is so hard it picked up our truck camper-top and blew it up in the air and then down the hill.I was like WOW!
