It’s still snowing, but just a little. It’s been snowing pretty much non stop since 5pm on Thursday night. We have just a touch over 2 feet here at the house. It was like deja-vu when I shoveled at 6 this morning as I’ve done the same thing about 3 times in the past 36 hours. I don’t know why anyone should be surprised, we knew the snow would come, it always does. The funny thing is the mountains and all the ski areas got less than an inch! Weird weather patterns here and all over the World. In Italy and most of Europe, they were hit hard. Rome had their first snow in 26 years and in Eastern Europe (Hungary, Germany and other similar countries) people are freezing to death. In Moscow Russia, the government has put out over 3000 heaters for the public to go stand by, outside, and get warm as many of the buildings are without heat. Imagine if you had no heat or power, how well would you have faired the past few days. For us, it would have required extra work but we would have been ok. Anyhow, what a storm, we usually don’t get this much snow until March.
Yesterday the misses and Judy finished making the truffles for the party and the final tally was 159 handmade chocolate masterpieces. Today she’ll be hand painting a bunch of them for special guests. The boys had a blast in the snow. We finally had to make them come in around 6:30 as it was too dark. The youngest had crawled into Mojo’s dog house and then the oldest filled the front up with snow trapping him in. Kids huh.
The wife is patiently (not really) waiting for the computer so I’d better sign off. Lots to do today and the Super Bowl is tomorrow. I really don’t care who wins and frankly am not that excited for it. I am looking forward to the commercials, they’re always the best part anyhow as most games are not very good games. Time to clean off the car and head out to the gym. Have a great weekend.
