SnowJam 2014, v. 2.0 has kicked off with sleet and freezing rain this morning. No school and I'm working from home, so yay for getting to turn off the alarm clock last night. I started the fun-cooking last night with Snickers Chex Mix, which is ridiculously OTT and addictive. BabyBoy has already requested it for Beach Week.

Today, I think I'm going for cupcakes with nutella buttercream frosting. (I am, btw, also concocting real food, but that's not nearly as fun as the lineup of sugar-highs I've got planned out.)

At least this time I don't have crazed deadlines at work (nothing is more fun than trying to hack together a publishable guide from bad PDF sources while the power keeps going up and down like last time.) I might even get all the holiday stuff put back in the storage room (it's all down, but half of hit is still strewn across the pool table, which is probably going to become hot property if the power goes out and the boys need non-electronic entertainment options.)

My life, so exciting...

Good luck, hope the power won't go out!

so far, we're holding okay, but it is really icing out there. Something big hit the roof early this morning, but it didn't go through so far as we can see and it must have bounced off because there's nothing there now. More snow tonight, and I know it's kind of ridiculous, because it's not all that much (less than 10 cm) but this region just doesn't get it all that often so everyone is in a dither.

We're waiting for the new Snowpocalypse to get to us tomorrow night/Thursday.

SO ready for all this to be over!

It's been a very long winter. The daffodils usually start coming up in late January around here and this storm is taking them all out. :(

Ugh! It feels like it's never going to end, doesn't it? They just decided to let school out at noon tomorrow, which means I can use the time between my classes (my prep time) to go pick up son #2 and bring him back to the office with me.

Glad you're all safe at home, though! And I'm enjoying the sugar high vicariously!
