We got up early this morning as we wanted to get things done before Dawn came over. We went to Lowe's and then to the grocery store. After breakfast, I started laundry. It seems like we had a lot pile up this week, due to the snow and cold weather. Takes a lot more loads with jeans and hoodies. Dawn came over around 11:30am. We were going to the movies to see Book of Eli. We wanted to see it last week, but the snow would not allows us. So we left around noon and went to BJ's first. I needed fruit snacks and bird seed and Dawn needed D batteries. We then headed over to the theater. We got our popcorn and drinks and settled in. We noticed the lights were on, but we thought just forgot to turn them off after cleaning. Next we noticed the movie had not started the previews and it was 10 minutes past start time. We were the only ones in at the time, but 2 other guys came in. We waited another 5 minutes and nothing happened. So one of the guys left to go find someone. Three more people came in. The guy finally came back with an attendant to tell us the projector was broke and they could not show the movie. I think we are not destined to see this movie. They did say we could go see any other movie playing and we could get a pass for another time or we could get 2 passes if there was nothing we wanted to see. We did not want to stay, so we took the 2 passes for another time. So back home we went. Beth was also disappointed, cause she did not get her Rylee time. I let DJ know that I could pick Kyle up from school instead of him going to Maggie's mom. He is staying the night, or 2, with us since school has already been cancelled for tomorrow because of the snow. So I left around 2:30pm to go get him and Dawn and Rylee headed home. I had to stop at Wal-mart to get cheesecloth, then take Kyle home to get his stuff, and on to CVS. We got home around 4pm. It was really starting to cloud up and you knew it was going to be a bad one. We had steak for dinner as it might be the last time we see the grill for awhile. I also made sticky rice. My grandma used to make it for me when I was younger and I loved it. I could never find the rice for it since I moved to PA, but finally ran across it the other day. Eating it brought back so many memories of the times I had it with my grandma. Kyle loved it also and Beth I think could take it or leave it. We had just finished dinner and I went to cover the grill and noticed it was starting to snow and snow hard. In about 2 hours we have about an inch of snow already. They weatherman could be right and we could see 18 to 24 inches. We will know in the morning as it is to snow all night & day. Kyle is excited to be able to use the snow blower and help Beth clean the driveway. I am just thankful I don't have to shovel the back sidewalk. We can't even use the hot tub as it is snowing so hard. Again our prayers go out to DJ for a safe night of plowing. As you can see from today's picture the snow was pretty deep last time. We only lost about 6 of the 16 inches of snow and the say we will get 20 more. Tunnel digging we will be doing if that happens.
