We made it!

Never in my life have I been so happy to see warm blankets, a matrices and McDonald's dollar menu food...  are bellies are warm and full.  I have gotten to wrap my arms around Merami in a warm hug.  And now I am crashing out... to tired to left my head.  Good night, y'all!  This gypsy goth gal is going to bed even though it is not yet 6pm, as I have been up for over 24 hrs now...

Cold Car...

Brr...brrr...brr... I havent been this cold since we left Didean after the ice storm.  I am not sure if I will ever get warm again.  Let's just put it this way.  These gypsies need to find hotels that take cash, or at least a debit card...because sleeping in a car with frost in Indiana just isnt cutting it.  No place we stopped at in Louisville will take cash or debt.   And we havent seen anymore place to try yet... by next time I make this drive I will find at LEAST one that takes cash...sleeping bags, blankets and car seats just dont cut it...not with our back seat and trunk full of what little we still own...

So here I am sitting in an Indiana rest stop trying to warm up for a bit, before taking a nap for about an hour, so we can press on to the next rest stop for another hour. At least someone has free wifi near by...   Then we will drive on to mom and dads, and crash for a night and a day, before helping Dad get stuff together for Merami's surgery.

Never Warm Again?

Brr...Brr...Brr! I am not sure I will ever be warm again... I am nearly frozen cuddled under 5 blankets as I write this.  Ice storm, after cold ice storm has hit, and we cant get the heaters to work right inside.  So we pulled up the back up space heaters, and every blanket in the house.  The 3 cats, Bella, Miss Kitty, and Blackie, are cuddled together under the Robby's bed.  Jo made her kids join her in her room, and Robby is sleeping on the floor in his room so I can sleep in the bed... all so we can be close to the heaters.   We were suppose to leave for Cincinnati yesterday, but the roads are no good, and buses are not running.  We will get a call when we can head out.  Until then, we just bundle up and try not to freeze totally...
