Snowmageddon Part II

Before we had even recovered from the first blizzard, the DC area was hit with another one. This one had less snow but more wind. I think it was actually more dangerous than the first storm. At times, I would look outside and could not see anything. Total white out conditions.

The Federal Government has been closed for about a week. It's just nutty. I have a case of total cabin fever.

During my forced confinement, I have done the following:

• Cleaned my entire house
• Watched endless hours of Storm Watch on ABC 7.
• Reorganized my closets and put aside 4 bags of clothes for Goodwill
• Organized all of my household papers (bills, tax info, etc)
• Watched many movies including Sunshine Cleaning, 8 Seconds, The Ballet Shoes, and My Sisters's Keeper.
• Shoveled much much snow.
• Did some work from home.
  
• Read the Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah.
• Talked on the phone for more hours than I ever have in my life.
• Logged much time on Facebook.
• Caught up on my blog.
• Drank lots of coffee and hot chocolate with Bailey's.
• Did some online shopping.
• Watched some episodes of Castle - I'm still about 6 behind though.

These storms were definitely a case of be careful what you wish for. I had been hoping for a random day off to just relax. No plans - just time to chill. Well, I got 7 of them and that's 6 too many.

Oh well, it will be another 15 years before DC sees the same type of storm again. I won't complain too much. In another couple of months, I'll be wishing for one of these lazy snow days.
