JUST CHECKING IN TO SAY I AM SAFE!!

As you may have heard on the national news, the blizzard has slammed us in here in northern New York State. Here in Watertown we have over 4 feet. In Harrisville -- over an hour north of here, where my Tennessee son is staying with my ex-- they have over 5 feet. And, in the next hamlet over from Harrisville in a tiny place called Natural Bridge-- they have accumulated about 6 feet!! We are in a mess.

Even though my grandson was here last night to clear out my car, it is once again totally covered with new snow and it's so high I can't open the car doors.

The plow that came here to my place this morning to clear us out has slid into the house and blocked our driveway. (I am having problems with my phone camera or I would post pics.)

BUT I am fine. I have food, gas in the car, electric and heat. My local son will be over later after the roads are cleared to clean off my car and to check in.

I will keep you posted!

Prior to my first quitting on 8/25/2019, I was a heavy smoker for over 60 years. That time, I quit due to health concerns regarding clogged arteries to my brain. Tar deposits from cigarettes were making the situation worse. I had become a prime candidate for a stroke and required surgery to clean out my left carotid artery. I have relapsed 4X since that quit, the last one being on 05.15.2022. ( At one point in all of this madness, I had been quit for 1.5 years). Then on 9/7/2021 I began my recent eight month quit before my current relapse. I am in the process of planning a return to the non-smoking life. After more than 2 weeks of smoking, wheezing and coughing and being short of breath, I have set my new quit date of June 1, 2022 as the beginning of my forever quit. I am done with this madness!! God is good.
