Hunkering Down

Today we received our first big snowstorm and advice to not go anywhere unless you have to. I kind of laughed at the warning. I mean, I live in WI, it isn't like it is DE or FL or WA or other places that shut down with a couple of inches of snow.

I dragged myself out of bed this morning to watch the snow as I made myself food. On days like these, I actually don't mind the warning telling me not to go anywhere. It gives me an excuse for what I really want to do: hunker down in a big sweatshirt, wrap myself in a down comforter and only move to make more hot chocolate.

I heard you are supposed to get 3 inches of snow. Portland would shut down for days, there would be a run on the grocery stores, and people would just freak out. It is great. Instead of snow, we have rain..lots and lots of rain with hurricane force winds (on the coast). The govenor just declared a state of emergency and 2 of the major freeways have closed in areas because of flooding. I walked 50 feet to get the mail and came back to the house drenched. Crazy crazy weather Enjoy the snow!!

Only Western WA shuts down when it snows... Not the rest :)
