It just keeps on going...


It's snowed all day now. Just look at our pile of shovelled snow! The Christmas Eve dinner (was) officially cancelled, and tomorrow's Christmas Day dinner/gift unwrapping at Trevor's parent's place is looking a little dodgy. Everyone's dream of a white Christmas has happened all at once!

This is just getting silly now

It's snowing like crazy here today, and it's looking like our annual Christmas Eve dinner will be cancelled. Oh well, we still have our power on, and lots of food to eat!

Yesterday and today

This was my car yesterday morning (it looks the same way today). There is zero motivation to dig it out!

And this morning...here comes the snow again!  I saw this out the window in the backyard and that big looming cloud front is coming even closer right now.  I think the snow might be here earlier than tonight.

Poor Dan


This is what he's looking at today. (silent laugh)

Snowy weekend

It snowed like crazy here this weekend. We got a foot of snow to shovel (ahem, Trevor to shovel). My job is to go outside with a broom and smack the bushes and trees that are getting too weighed down by the snow. Our power stayed on (flickered a little bit), but for the most part it was really pretty to see the snowflakes falling outside the window while we were putting up the tree and doing some Christmas decorating. Trés festive!!!

Evidence of snow accumulation:
Even more came the next day:
And you know it's getting closer to Christmas when you see this on TV:(is it just me or is the log a little bit too early? I guess not if I'm watching it!)

We also spent most of the weekend cleaning (or clearing) the living room for the couch placement and tree area. It was a lot of work, but well worth it in the end (and not to mention, makes the house seem civil for once, no crap in that room!). We didn't get as much done as I would have liked, but hey, at least we made a difference.

Mike and Cynthia came over on Friday night for dinner and a bad-ass game of Skip-Bo (none of us have ever played it). Cynthia cleaned up with winning the game, and the two of them had to go because Cynthia was driving home and her 'L' status doesn't let her drive past midnight. But, we did keep on playing, just the two of us, to see who would have been the loser, lol! Mike came in second, I came in third, and Trevor drowned in his cards and came last...I mean, was the loser. HAHAHA. (Note: We played last night and he did manage to win.)

And now today, I am in panic mode, but also a bit (well a lot) bummed out about something that happened today. I'll put that in a separate post.
