Ole' man winter has reared his head! Make sure you take precautions. Check on elderly or single neighbors. Keep your pets in a safe place with plenty of water they can drink making sure it is not frozen. Assuming you have already closed the vents under your house and unplugged your hoses, tonight is a good night to start leaving your faucets dripping and the cabinet doors open. Make sure you have a clean furnace filter. Locate your snow shovel and your ice melt. But most of all, if you're going to be shoveling snow do it WITH CARE! This is the kind of weather that can bring on heart attacks so when you get tired STOP/REST. THAT Is being a hero! TIP: If you cannot keep your bathroom cabinet door all the way open because you're afraid you'll get up in the middle of night to go to the bathroom and run into it, a kneeling foam pad from the Dollar Tree is great to hang on a knob in your bathroom to prop open the cabinet door so the heat can keep it warmer and help the pipes not to freeze.
