Stormy seas,freezing rain, and ready for Spring



We had a REALLY bad storm last week. A big storm arrived in the evening with a lot of rain. However the worst was there were 60mph winds! I felt like I was in a horror film or a remake of The Perfect Storm...aaagh! We couldnt even walk about the cabin without clinging to everything like cats trying to climb a tree.It was quite hilarious, and nauseating as well!! Diron and I hardly slept as the boat tossed, bumped against the pier, and slapped on the surface with waves that were in the marina...WOW! Needless to say, I woke Satchel before 6 and left when Diron did, dropping him off at daycare way early. Diron and I had to giggle throughout the day at how sick we were (lingered most of the day), and still felt like we were moving. I went that day and was prescribed some ear patches (Scopalmine?) and bonine so I am fully prepared when this happens again. Whew! I know we have more where that came from!!!!!
This last weekend was a big freeze here! I was gone to MD for a root canal (FUN) but Diron and Satchel ended up getting a room here Saturday night since our boat was out of water. When it freezes, they turn off the water and we had an empty tank in the boat. When Diron got back from work Friday, the water was already off...uuugh! We had to wait until today (Tues) to finally get to fill the tank when the water was turned back on. All is good now (: Cold and rainy today but much better than ice! Diron said the dock and boat was so slick with ice it was crazy. I think his daddy/son weekend was a little stressful because of all the craziness. I was very glad to get back and see my babies! Satchel gave me a zillion kisses and smiles..aaaah!
