How much snow did you get, Ruth? We got 9 inches, and temps supposed to go down to -4 tonight. I think they are already there... What have you been up to?

I use sheets with a stripe so I know which way they go. Did you get all that snow they have been talking about down your way, or only COLD like we are getting? Doug, Until you get that gal to help around the house just use only flat sheets. They need to be tucked in well but it beats having to do over time & again.
