weather in the midwest

We had a very icy day yesterday. All of the trees and buildings and roads were completely covered with ice. It looks like the temps have risen today and now it's just slushy. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here. The decorations aren't totally done, but probably about 95% done. Today I am planning to get to the malls. Our internet didn't work yesterday either. I'm glad to see it up and running again, and I'm glad our power didn't ever go off. Bye!
