Another Storm Coming!

Churches were closed yesterday due to freezing drizzle. The sun came out in the afternoon and melted some of the snow. Bill and our neighbors spent several hours shoveling driveways and the street as well. We are going to class this morning for the first time in a week. However, we are prepared to give lots of homework because another storm is predicted to come in on Tuesday evening and dump another 4 to 8 inches of snow.

We have reservations to fly to Ontario, California this week for my college reunion and visit family. We are watching the storm carefully. Delta said that we might be able to get out on Friday if the roads between Tecumseh and OKC are passable. We will not be stupid and will monitor the situation.

Mom continues to do well. We saw her nextdoor neighbor and son at the grocery store. They were buying some things for Mom. I thanked them. Mom still refuses to leave her apartment and seems to be extremely happy watching TV, doing puzzles, reading and talking on the phone.
Like Paul, she has taught me to be content in any situation. Happiness comes from within and we choose whether to be happy or bitter.
