Random~~

1st winter snow storm of the season last night,
causes power outages in most parts of Albany,
even AMRI gave us a day off from work today~
though it's a day off, most of the people are staying at home
ice and snow covered roads making it slippery to drive on,
ice-covered trees that became so heavy that fell onto the roads,
bringing down the electric cable lines,
so it's kinda "unsafe" to be out now...
plus i'm down with sore throat and cold again since yesterday!! duh~
been sleeping at home even before the storm started...
luckily Agnes came over this morning with some bread with jam,
together with herbal tea that she brewed before the power outage,
as we waited for the power to come on again~
as soon as the power came on, she started cooking porridge for me!
Thank you so much, Agnes!
i realised one thing: gas stove is better than electric stove....
cos you cant do anything without electricity...
******
good thing i went to an auto shop the night before
and got 2 new tires of the car,
if not, it will be so dangerous for me to drive in these conditions!
my 1st trip to the auto shop cost me about $110.
gonna learn more about car maintenance~
