    I slept until six so everything is late this morning.  Sleeping late was a good thing.  I slept late because I'm feeling better and last night's sleep was good, I never got up trying to breath and coughing.  They say the type A flu is 10 days to 2 weeks of being sick..  Bekah still isn't well.  She is up at the kennel doing morning chores now.  When she comes back she and Maegin are going to load out a load of hay.  Jay is working at the florist shop today.  Her coffee pot died this morning.     They looked in the garage for mine but couldn't find it. They were pleased when I went out and looked because I came in and said "it's up in that back corner on the top shelf.  You'll have to climb on the pellets to get it."  Now they have coffee, 

   We have a stack of boxes sitting here.  Maegin is going to Bangor later and is going to take them to the Salvation Army.  She'll go to Sam's too.  I'd just as soon not go anywhere until next weekend when the weather changes. I'm sure church will be canceled on Sunday. I went to Corinth yesterday and got propane for Maegin.  She'll have plenty to get through this cold stormy weather.  She can't get it in her van. The propane company that is setting up the furnace in the new greenhouse is coming today to set up propane for both greenhouses.  We are totally switching to them.  Not only is their propane considerably cheaper but the company we've been with had no interest in setting up the furnace in the new greenhouse.

    I'm not looking forward to the weather this next 6 or 7 days but I'm thankful we have all we need to be warm. And thankful we have the generator if Friday's wind knocks out our power.  May the Lord be with you, Sally
