I just dropped my Madone at UPS for the trip to Sarasota
I long for the good old days when the weather predicts snow...but is wrong. It's coming down now as I type...yippee

We had rolling blackouts since three power plants had issues with the cold. I was happy to find we didn't get hit long since my entire house is electric but my 93 year old grandma was hit 5 times for as long as 40 minutes at a time. Luckily her house is gas and she has a fireplace so warmth wasn't an issue but she has trouble seeing and with the gray weather she couldn't crochet or read.

Just when we thought the worst was over we noticed a pipe burst and is spewing water from under our deck in the back yard. Husband isolated the leak and is off to home depot............ Even our pipes can't take the freezing temps.
But, we are safe and warm inside. Blackouts have stopped, and the snow and ice are all melted. Temps are still dropping below freezing at night but warming up by day. At 26 degrees at 9am, we DID NOT do our usual club bike ride this morning.
Hope everyone is safe!
