Well, the intense storm last night has left 49% of us without power, and fortunately I am not one of them. MBFF is though, so she is temporarily relocating her family of 5, her brother, and her dog to my house for the day(s) until her power is restored. I still have to work though, so I hope the kids can remain quiet. I don’t expect them to be silent, but I absolutely cannot have screaming and all hell break loose - which is what it usually sounds like at her home. Will be fun though, having a giant sleepover. I think. (I’m being optimistic)
Forgot to WI again this morning. Food is good, exercise is good. Not sure about today’s food. See, kids were supposed to be going to XH’s and I have no dinner planned, and now that 6 extra people are coming I REALLY have no dinner planned, lol. So she is bringing bags of food too (that will just go bad anyway) and we will concoct something. She is eating healthy now and is doing so great. She is 3 pounds away from her first goal of losing 20 pounds!
I haven’t been out of the house in days … and who knows when I will be getting out. We are going to go attempt some shoveling soon. It’s not just that there is a lot of snow, it’s that it is layers of snow/sleet/ice and it is so heavy.
Will still try and workout tonight, we will see how this goes.

it does sound like it could be fun…lol We have power, but the winds are terrible, aren’t they? all the blowing, blinding snow….
I say, if the kids get restless, send them out with shovels and let them do the work! haha
Soooooo ready for spring……who am I kidding, I WANT SUMMER!! haha

yeah, send the kids out to shovel. make a game of it and give a reward of some sort. LOL. maybe you guys can have a movie night with popcorn and stuff. kids love that. that you entail you having to go out and get a movie, of course.
enjoy your weekend.

Sounds like it’ll be chaos by you - hope you manage to work amidst it all! Definitely agree re sending the kids outdoors to shovel (and play).

Thanks ladies … I needed a sanity break so I am checking in. I did not finish work until 9 pm with only one 15 minute lunch break and about a half hour, 45 min maybe, for dinner. Craziness!
It is after 9 pm, and I am just about to start school work. I have no idea where everyone is sleeping! lol
