Well, here it comes! What is coming? THE SNOW STORM FOR 2026!! They (our great weatherman) are saying that we are going to get about 12+ inches of snow! I just can't deal with it! Why? First I really don't like cold weather, but can deal with it because it is just for a few months. And the really cold days are only a few. But SNOW! I really do not like snow! We got a snow storm last year, I think we deserve a break for a year!
Ok you say, why don't you move to somewhere that doesn't have snow. Well, then I would just complain about the hurricanes or tornadoes or flooding or something! So I should just stick with this. At least with snow, I can just hunker down in my house with my warm fuzzy socks and binge my TV shows. Or maybe I can get some housework, hobby stuff or maybe even start packing this weekend. Maybe, maybe not. One thing in KY is when there is threat of any snow, EVERYONE hits the grocery store. Well, we went early this week for our normal, weekly shopping and we got what we need. A friend went yesterday and said the shelves for bread were almost bare! What the heck! We are only going to be locked up for at the most 2 days. Do you really think you will use 3+ loaves of bread or 3 gallons of milk in that time? And the snow isn't coming until Saturday night!
Fear and panic set in when you do not know what is going to happen. The only time that I remember in my lifetime of a major snow was the snow storm of 1994 and I got "trapped" at work. Yes, I did. It sucked. It was my last shift of the week and I could not get home because there was 14 feet of snow! I stayed at the hospital and worked until it was cleared for staff to get there and I could leave. They hooked us up in a room to sleep after our night shift for a while. 5 of us in a small room with cots. Not ideal. It was just a day but it was the fear of the unknown of when I would be able to get home. My most awesome hubs drove the 15 minute drive for over 4 hrs to get to me and get me home! I loved him for that so I wouldn't be stuck working until the roads cleared, but could have have grounded him for risking getting out in the snow covered roads. We were in house for about a week before all the stores were open and people could get out. My car was buried in the snow for almost 2 weeks because they plowed the parking lot and all our cars were buried and covered in ice!
SO..... Y'all be safe out there and don't panic. We can get through this again!
Isaiah 41:10; "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand".
Philippians 4:6; "Do not be anxious about anything"
1 Peter 5:7; Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
Love to all,
