Frozen Tundra

We are frozen and there is no leaving this house! There is at least 1/2" of ice coating all the surroundings. Limbs are falling all around us. We have a tree that has fallen across the road about half way up the big hill. Our power is flirting with going out. The boys have convince themselves that there is a monster in the attic that is turning the lights off and on. Although I have told them there isn't a monster up there Lucas swears there is because he saw the monster stick his claw out of the attic opening. They are packing nerf guns and swords waiting for the monster to get cold enough to come out of the attic. That should keep them occupied for a little while. Sleet is still coming down. Keep your fingers crossed that we don't loose power. No power = no TV, no wii, no computer, no heat, no water, no cooking....Yikes!
