This brings back memories of being stranded on top of a Tennessee mountain with 100 teen agers in their dorm and the nightmarish fun we all had! I'll probably do a blog later on that experience - which was actually life-threatening and luckily none of us got killed !

I heard tons more about "oh, people might be angry" from reporters with nothing to do standing on no-snow corners than I did from citizens. And that is odd about the books. I choose to read about transit that works, I guess.

I couldn't agree more on the subject of better safe than sorry. The books sound fascinating and it's amusing that, home bound, you read about people on the move on trains and in boats.

The last time we lost power, during Sandy, we came to find out that our new gas furnace would not work without its electric ignition. The hot water heater worked.

I mostly work remotely at the other career, and as it doesn't take much to strain NJ Transit's equipment -- snow or just brutal cold (which we did get) -- I stayed home this week. Tuesday felt like a snow day because it was so slow at work. But I did manage to change out of the flannel jammies!Sheila Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16580800243505309470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7794927480752850942.post-24291226032172432542015-01-29T08:43:53.973-05:002015-01-29T08:43:53.973-05:00I live in Collingswood and got about an inch and a...I live in Collingswood and got about an inch and a half of snow. I work from home so I don't get snow days anymore But then I don't have to stress out about whether I can manage the snow and ice. We favor brandy as the drink and though we have fully charged Kindles, I always quiz Bob about batteries for various book lights that we own. Thanks for the book recommendations, Sheila. I have "The Girl on the Train" and will now get "The Boys in the Boat."<br />StephAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
