Grrr, we don't have power and we might not for another 2 weeks. I went from excitement over having a snow day, to frustration over the lack of power and running water, and now to sadness that we might not have power until after Christmas. We're living in my husband's office right now because all the hotels in the area are booked. I'm trying to be positive about it, like I am genuinely excited to have a warm place to go but it's hard to be living out of a suitcase, especially when you have two kids under 2.
And my weight loss efforts are pretty much out the window right now, since we're eating out all the time. And things were going so well!
OK, no more moping for me. We're all safe and healthy, and that's the important thing!
ETA: I just read the pp's post. There goes your theory about midwesterners not whining!
