Cold Wait
Ice Frozen. windblown Fury
Darkness falling. pitched
Locate the light tools.
Finish what was started.
Abandon the undo-able plans.
Wasting time on Nitty Gritty
Don't waste light, make it last
Wait again until daylight
So dim, so cold after two days
Feeling forgotten, forlorn
Too much waiting: No warmth,
Radio, reading, jogging,
Endless dark evenings.
Blizzard Power Out
Internet, heat, hot water,
Bright light all night long,
Warm toes, hot food,
Less work keeping warm...
Still Waiting

Almost there. Hang on. The light is getting longer. Soon it will just be a swamp.
Are you jogging now??!! Getting shape?
You are not forgotten with me!! Even when you're in the dark.
And you deserve to be spoiled!!

Tabor, I'm just too isolated without the connection online- n I do have alot to be depressed about in the low-light, no distractions place I was stuck in. Nevermind losing all that work pay... thanks
JanF, Jogging in an attempt to feel warm, n up n down the stairs too. I jog alot more than I used to these days, but not for fun... Who? oh Me! Yes I do, thanks
That's lovely Snaggle - yes, hang in there.
I see you ordered pizza from Papa John's too.
Gran Annie, Still working on another post- both me n machine too slow! thanks
Lynn, still not recovered- thanks
Neo, No money for that! Ate soup with cold bread, mostly.
I'm so you felt so alone.Hope things are better now Snaggle.
I meant sorry.
That's when you get a metal trash can and get a good fire going.
LLcoolJ, Being online n communicating with folks again is way, way, better than total isolation! Thanks.
Neo, good idea if 1. I Had the can, (all plastic here!) n 2. The branches weren't iced under 2 feet of snow... How I've longed for the heat of a wood-stove- no hearth, fireplace, or flue here tho.
just, uh, coat the plastic trash cans in aluminum foil first!
Neo, or just save a step n make a nice bonfire!
