I am thankful that at least yesterday morning Kristi and I were able to go to the gym, the post office, and run to Costco for laundry detergent (we already had the other essentials) before the snow hit. It certainly is challenging sometimes having to just hunker down, but it's the only choice, there is so much snow, and our road has not been touched.
To keep you, and myself entertained, here is a short list of things to do while snowed in:
(The list includes activities from yesterday and today)
Clean (everything imaginable- from the kitchen to the bathroom to the closets!)
Cook
Beat Super Mario Brothers on the Wii. (Yes, Jeff beat the game, and he was pumped! I guess now he's working on some secret world that comes up after you find the princess...who knows!)
Play Wii Fit for hours and make it a competition.Do laundry.
Watch the news over and over and over.
Re-arrange the spare bed room.
Go through your filing cabinet and shred what you don't need.
Help push the neighbor out of his driveway. (why did he need to leave so bad?)
Talk on the phone.
Shovel the snow.
Brush off the cars. (not to go anywhere, just to have something to do!)
Build a snowman! (yes, Bella is trying to eat Frosty's arm)
Chat it up with the neighbor's who are out doing the same thing we are.
Chat it up with the neighbor's who are out doing the same thing we are.Finish/work on scrapbooks.
Watch a movie.
Read a book.
Alright, I'll stop! But this is just a taste of what we've been doing over here on Scenic Circle!
Life is actually pretty good, besides the occasional, "I'm bored!"
James Wood Middle, where Jeff and I work is now an emergency shelter, especially for those without power. We are thankful that we have not lost power, but we know many people have.
Here are some other pictures from the day. I wonder how long we'll be out of school?
