So far we’ve actually had less snow that they are getting in the south – Atlanta, for instance, is way ahead of us. Good for them, I say. And better for us, say I. Every time one of the Winter Weather Advisory things is posted for us and we somehow manage to escape? Wonderful.

What is concerning me this morning is the loss of animal lives out in California due to the wildfires. I wish like everything I could gather that every animal in California could somehow be transported someplace else, to someplace safe. Why anyone lives there is beyond me. And to keep animals there and not be able to keep them safe? Even worse in my mind. I am trying hard not to be consumed with anger, but I’m losing the battle.
