Frozen Before the Storm

 

Maddie and Nate were off to Lanier Christian Academy's theater to see a version of "Frozen," which is terribly ironic, given the forecast for later this evening, isn't it?

They had a good time though - this is Nate's school and his friends on stage, and of course Maddie knows some of them as well.  She enjoyed the performance for what it was - the plan was to see it tomorrow, but that performance was cancelled because of Queen Elsa's little craziness.  Of course, the cold doesn't bother her anyway, but I imagine it will bother a lot of us down here where the temperature is typically a little warmer.

So while Hans was gathering up supplies to help the people of Arendelle, I was over at the grocery stores doing the same thing.  I went to Aldi's and found pretty much everything, but made a trip over to Publix to get one or two items, plus a prescription.  Both grocery stores were madhouses.  Both have these corrals for grocery carts in the front, and Aldi's had two left, and Publix had this one that I grabbed. 

Everyone had their carts, and the places were mobbed.  I think that Publix had just one gallon of milk left, and I got there early!  I'm not sure what the thinking is behind "milk and eggs," but ironically, I was out there to get both, just like Christmas Eve shopping for that last-minute gift.  Crazy out there!

Maddie got home and said goodbye to Nate here.  We read tonight, and we said our prayers.  The wind is picking up a little, but the snow isn't supposed to arrive until much later when it's much colder.  It's going to be another interesting weekend, for sure!
