  1. Everything is fine and jolly here. Fortunately I don't have anywhere I have to go, and had done my weekly grocery shopping with the possibility in mind. Power never went off either. A lot of people did lose power so I'm lucky. Today there was much melting, but it will take more, and schools and so forth will still be closed tomorrow. This is better than the last snow this season after which it never did get above freezing for at least 5 days after--less precipitation but lot of staying power.

    I took these pictures this morning around 10:30. Some areas still look like this. The snow has slid about half way down my skylights. And it hasn't slid off anyone's roofs yet. Lots of icicles hanging from the eaves out back tonight.

  2. Fear, hope everything turned out OK. Did you get your hubby there and back? Here it didn't get started until mid-morning. We ended up getting somewhere around 9 to 12 inches, which is quite unusual for here! We got more in Chatham than anywhere else in the Triangle--hope we've had our quota now. It's really pretty to look at - so glad I don't have to go anywhere. The power flickered several times this afternoon, which made me quite nervous, but none of that since it got dark.

  3. From Newsweek:

    Trump’s foray into politics would have been impossible without The Apprentice, which introduced him to Middle America, the onetime King of Debt reborn as a capable chief executive both ruthless and uncannily perceptive. But that was also an illusion, as we were recently reminded by Clay Aiken, the singer and onetime Celebrity Apprentice contestant. On a podcast last month, Aiken revealed that Trump wielded the show’s famous slogan—“You’re fired!”—at the instruction of others. The great leader of men was, at least in Aiken’s telling, a puppet. “The show’s producers from NBC made those calls,” explained a report in The Washington Post, “giving Trump instructions through a teleprompter on his desk that looked like a phone.”

    Looks like this is from next issue's cover story, TRUMP, AMERICA'S BOY KING: GOLF AND TELEVISION WON'T MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
