Twas the Night before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house, it was quiet. I mean I'm the only one up enjoying the quiet. Amazing to look at the tree with all the presents and know that in 12 hours it will all be gone. I've been cooking all day and staying warm while it has been snowing, yes snowing, outside. We set a record for snow in one day in Oklahoma and will definitely have a white Christmas. I haven't had one of those in 30+ years. The drifts are huge, we can't get out of the house, let alone the neighborhood. ALL of the interstates in the state were closed down. I don't think that has ever happened even in the ice storms we've had. It looks pretty but the house has been shaking with the wind blowing 50 mph. You know that Oklahoma's weather has it all and we certainly prove that point all the time.
