So, unless you live under a rock, you know that the state of Kentucky suffered a disastrous ice storm this past Tuesday evening. I just wanted to update this to let everyone know that we are all okay. Our house has no power and at last check it was hovering around 37 degrees. Needless to say, after toughing it out for two days, we had our fill. Mom and Dad got their power back so Jason, the cats and I moved into their basement and ate our first non-fast food meal tonight and it was wonderful!
Anyway, on the damage front, we have been very lucky. We lost some huge limbs off trees nearby (one of which landed on and damaged Jason's dad's car) but we have been able to get them moved out of the way and can get in and out of the driveway. One of the larger limbs in the backyard landed on the garage and damaged the new gutter (boo!) and also took down a wire with it and tore the piping off the house that connected it. We also lost our three big fish (they got too cold) but I have been able to save the baby fish so far by supplementing their tank with hot water and have moved them to my parents in hopes of keeping them alive. All in all though, the we are very lucky it wasn't much worse and are thankful to have somewhere warm to stay with our cats and baby fish.
Hope this post finds every else somewhere warm and safe!!
