THE NEXT DAY . . . 3 FEBRUARY 2011

Somehow, the local Kenosha News made it right to the front door this morning (extra tip for THAT delivery person!) . . . . . . but the Milwaukee Journal lay forlornly on one of the drifts, awaiting rescue. At least no one can walk by and steal it. Snow is sliding off the roof over the living room . . . . . . the bedroom . . . . . . and the office (right over the furnace pipes, of course; I see another trip thru the drifts in my future). And here's a sight I never thought I'd see . . . . . . RosieVi the Shy & Chrissi-One-Eye, shairing a bed. Not happily, on Rosie's part, but at least she didn't run away from Chrissi, as she usually does
