ANOTHER NEW RECORD
Tolland had another 16" snowfall last night, and another record for all time snowfall in Connecticut was established. The problem of where to put the snow has become a bigger problem. In the collage, notice the mound at the top of the driveway, and we haven't been plowed out today.
Had to miss a dermatology doctor appointment today and I am glad because I hate to go to the doctor when I'm not doing all that well. I only like good news.

PIZZA SENDOFF
Emily is on her way back to college. Megan, Patrick and Tabor were here for a Pizza Party. Tabor discovered himself in the mirror, with Emily's help, crawled all over the living room floor and pulled himself up on his feet. He will be walking soon----and be driving the family car before very long. (but don't worry)

RECORD SNOWFALL =ONE DAY
We had about 26 inches of snow in Tolland, the most in a single storm we ever had, as far as I know.
Some other places had more, and there was an all time record established at Bradley Field (official site for this kind of record in Connecticut). The snow on our car was they deepest and heaviest I ever had to sweep off---in 47 years of clearing snow off cars here. It was about two feet deep on the car.
Literally, we were snowed in, being unable tp open an outside door until our plow driver shovelled us out at 10:30 P.M. We would have had to destroy the storm doors to get out, so we waited.
Being snowed in didn't bother me because I like to sleep, and I use anti-depressants---try them--you can be serene, too!

ANNUAL WRITING GROUP LUNCH
Our writing group, minus two members, met for lunch yesterday. Each person brought a hai ku dealing with new year resolutions.
Mine: "Stop complaining, Bob
Don't forget all your blessings
Put a sock in it!"
Moe's:
" I hope to lose weight
Will I ever reach my goal?
Only in my dreams."

Snow Day in the South
This is what most of Atlanta looks like today. Mostly ice, which is worse. Not going anywhere for a while.
Sleep Center experience
I went to the Sleep Center recently. Ironically, couldn't get to sleep with all of this stuff on. Good looking picture though.
