weather

weather makes people go nuts…especially cold, icy weather.  For instance, someone was just in the store today saying “Wal-Mart is sold out of bread”.  Wow, I thought – “probably the white wonder bread section only”.

The weather has even been good for diaper sales at Terra Tots!  Usually the cold, dreary weather keeps people inside and away from any shopping.  NOT when a winter storm advisory is in effect.  I’ve had a couple customers come in today because they needed the next size up on covers, and they needed them before the ice storm hit.  I know – it’s very smart thinking.  Planning ahead.

I’ve been thinking:  what did people do before electricity, stoves, heaters, sliced bread, and sized diapers?  I bet they survived okay.  Yes – they were adjusted to that way of life.  We were given that way of life last year – this exact day actually – when the ice storm hit.  No power for 11 days.  Despite the melted wax everywhere, shattered windows (a tree fell through our large dining room window) and a small case of cabin fever, it was kinda fun.

Hopefully this winter storm will provide some much needed winter fun as well.

You better hurry…Wal-Mart is almost out of bread and Terra Tots is out of prefolds!

All joking aside, enjoy the winter weather.  See you when the ice melts.
