It's 3:30am and the thunder and lighting woke me up.  Not at all what I had expected!!  The freezing rain was hitting the roof  so hard  it sounded like hail.  Now we have a bit of sleet and snow mixed with the freezing rain.  It's going to be pretty in the morning.  I sure am glad I got alot of food cooked yesterday.  We may only have the wood stove to cook on when this is done. Time to stoke the fireplace and stove!!
