Dear Santa (or God... anyone??) -

Please keep the glitter that's all around my house out of my cameras, computers and printers.

Thank you.

After 8 days without, we're just happy to have the power back on! :jump:

It's pretty wicked weather in so many areas of the country. In Seattle, we're under a sheet of ice and snow and awaiting a blizzard starting later today and through the night. Everyone, be careful; be safe!

Nat,

Just tell the crew that Santa will skip your house if one piece of glitter finds its way into your stuff. That should work. :biggrin:

No glitter. No ice. No snow. No blackouts.
Thank you, God (and/or Santa) and Happy Holidays to all NPNers, especially those of you dealing with any of the above.

I wish for MORE wonderful rain, clouds, and storm conditions.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I live in southern California. Bring it on! It's a treat.

72 degrees here in Ellijay, GA today, but still raining after 5 days of the stuff. This is the longest wet spell we've had in about 5 years. Still, though, we have had almost 60 inches of rain so far this year. A little below normal.

Ah, perhaps the early phases of another Maunder Minimum (spaceweather.com) is again outrunning current science about global warming. Five days without power, repeated storms, cold weather, 60 inches of rain. It all speaks of a white Christmas... Not all bad!
