Well... snow blower started and checked out, fresh gas with conditioner, shovels on the porch, plenty of salt, plow guy all set to go, generator tested and ready, oil in the tank, 2 full tanks of propane for the generator, plenty of food and drinks. I am ready. Even my body is ready to go. It's a freakin' miracle.

So now that I have gotten all that in order, just figured I would share so you all would be able to relax... because it is absolutely positive that none of it will be needed. Heck the power has only been out for two hours since I put the generator in 2++ years ago. Garanteed.... no need.

Is your doctor, or hospital associated with the Ronald McDonald house in any way? My suggestion is to ask, and then go to Boston tomorrow and see if you can stay there at least until after your appointment. People are allowed in there even though they don't have cancer. My wife takes her father to Tufts quite a bit and one appointment was late. They offered them a room.

Joe seems like your situation qualifies as an emergency.

Good luck Joe.

Blower ready to go and wood stacked and at the ready. Day off isn't a bad thing either.

I'm in Lincoln RI if anyone needs anything; food, water gas can or any older relatives checked up on.

We're ready here if anyone needs anyone checked up on just let me know I'll be checking in here between my rounds or just call me I help out my parents and a few older folks when we get feet instead of inches. Be safe everyone.

macojoe i hope all goes well... for you

this is shaping up to be a repeat of the storm in "78"
maybe not as deep
70 mph winds seems harsh and thunder snow

JoeG@Breezy 01-26-2015 08:18 PM

I'm ready. 50# of ice melt, 5 qts milk, lots of wine, plenty of groceries and I bought a smaller shovel so the wife won't hurt her back this time.:laughs:

macojoe 01-27-2015 01:47 AM

Thanks all!! I go to Tuff's, they called today to say they will not be in tomorrow. So I have to go on the 5th and 24th of Feb. now.
Almost there, when these two app. are done I should go on the list, then my brother can get tested, if a match we move to transplant.
Guy next to me at dialysis got a call sunday to say they had a kidney, he was wow!! 1/2 hour they called back said the donor did not look good when they opened him up so no deal. What a let down, but at least knowing that after 3 years they are watching the list!! They say hes near top now!!

crap the lights flickering now!!!!!!!!!

BEETLE 01-27-2015 05:09 AM

Thanks Raider Ron. :nailem:
Here on the banks of the Weymouth Fore River, the water is 25 ft. from my house now at high tide.

Good Luck Macojoe.

Raven 01-27-2015 06:30 AM

i can barely open my back door due to snow drift
front door is a non exit now.... dog cannot go outside
as the snow is way to deep.... i let her see for herself
and she realized "i can wait strategy" is the only choice.
