We are experiencing one of the worst storms in Ohio since we moved here 6 years ago. It started snowing yesterday morning and hasn't really stopped. From the looks of it, we've gotten between 2 and 3 feet, plus it's really windy, so there are huge drifts of snow. Now, 2 feet of snow is not a big deal in Utah, but to the people here, life must stop. Jon had to be at work (there is no such thing as a snow day for a doctor) at 9:00, so he worked for almost an hour digging out his car. He had to dig a trail for the tires of his car to go down our driveway. He made it there safely, so hopefully he'll be able to make it home.So, the kids and I have been filling our day with inside things to do. Emily & Lindsey got their homework done. The three big kids have been working on melty bead projects. I finally put my Christmas dishes away (a goal I've had since January 1st and it took all of 5 minutes). Kate and I took a nice nap. We've watched "The Sound of Music" (a great day for a 3 hour movie). And, the kids ventured out in the snow. They didn't last very long because the wind is still so cold and kept blowing snow in their faces. So, hopefully we'll play for awhile and the rest of the day will pass. Hopefully we won't have to turn to "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" - truly, one of the longest movies ever made.
Thankfully, we have plenty of food, heat, milk and pop, so we're great!
