Some events are several days in the making.  Today is such a day.

The forecast was snow.  This was the word we had heard as early as Sunday, November 4^th.  The official advisory was for a “Nor’easter,” but, after having heard hurricane warnings, which many did not heed, and then having been hit with Hurricane Sandy, when I heard the “s” possibility, I was planning for snow.

That meant:

1. Getting the kids snow boots on Monday (November 5^th).

2. Taking Dad for a haircut and shave – also on Monday.

3. Stocking up on provisions and cooking.

4. Clearing the decks on Tuesday, November 6^th, for voting.

And here are the Wednesday results:

We are so lucky.  To help those who have lost so much, if not everything, in Hurricane Sandy, and now face this snowstorm, try these resources.
