Short Updates

Posted by Scott at 11:44 PM

It looks like we could get half a foot of snow starting around lunchtime today, with a followup later this weekend. VPN, take me away! 05:57am

Dropped Claire off at school & went to Mass for the Feast of St. Lucy, patroness of Sicily. I'll have to remind my Sicilian (& Dutch) wife. 08:46am

Working from home hoping to avoid what looks to be a nasty commute home in New England this evening. Going to catch a local step class soon. 08:47am

Michelle is shopping. The kids are all in school. I'm here at my home desk. I feel like singing [Shrek] Donkey's off key "I'm all aloooone!" 08:58am

Back from the local Golds. Today's instructor is one of their best. She always has creative new sequences. It keeps your mind & body going. 10:42am

The school system called a little while ago. All of the grades are now getting a 90 minute early dismissal in anticipation of the storm. 12:49pm

Looking out the window... It has begun. Queue the 'Jaws' theme music. Wait! It's just snow. Why does our local news hype it so much? 12:57pm

It's snow in December in New Hampshire. Shouldn't they be covering the candidates endless canvassing of our state? The latest silly poll? 01:00pm

Claire's home from school now. Wow! I even saw an email from HR. Our office is closing now. Still... I'm glad I'm not hitting the roads. 01:22pm

Claire is telling me that she and her friends were so excited when they heard the news. They haven't had an early dismissal in years. 01:25pm

Michelle had taken Timothy a couple of hours ago to gymnastics. She said that the roads coming home were 'wicked' slow. 03:02pm

Watched Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix. I'm going to do a first pass snow clearing since there's a break in the precipitation. 06:20pm

Ahh, the dual stage snowthrower. Argh, ARGH, ARGH! Another awesome example of applying God's gift of reason. Fides et Ratio, baby! 07:19pm

The girls gave me a good hand with snow removal, but I don't know if what the twins did is considered "helping". They pushed shovels around. 07:22pm
