Snow Day Mania
Yes, we had another "Snow" Day today. Except it's not really because of snow, it's because of ice. Ice, ice everywhere and not a gin-and-tonic to drink.
School was cancelled. Work was cancelled. Yoga was cancelled.
The cleaners cancelled, at which point I started to lose the will to live.
We got a little bored. A little bitter. A little stir crazy.
So, we started weighing the pets. (Oh, like you didn't do that, too.)
I know what you're thinking. No, I really do. You're wondering if it's ALWAYS this crazy around here and how we can possibly stand the excitement.
We're wondering the same thing, actually.
I guess if it's another snow day tomorrow, we'll weigh the fish.

On the other hand, living in NYC, getting from place to place in inclement weather is a little more possible. If all else fails, we break out the winter sports equipment and go on foot.
About 8 years ago, we had a REALLY bad blizzard. That was the night that my daughter, then 2, picked to head into ketosis (which usually indicates kidney failure). It's a damn good thing my husband's a doctor because I sure wouldn't have recognized it as anything serious. Unfortunately, no emergency vehicles could get anywhere near our house. Fortunately, we had a little sled in the basement, and could load her on, and pull her the half mile to the local ER. I gather that it was the first time in many decades that they'd gotten a patient by sled.
Leave it to us to have a really weird story . . . . And thank your lucky stars you had no urgent need to go somewhere!
Lovely :)
I have not resorted to weighing the pets. Ned sits on the bathroom scale every morning. All by himself. We don't know why. (He weighs 17 pounds.)

I can beat you, though. A fallen tree in our neighborhood took out our phone, tv, and internet. Not the power, fortunately. So we had a snow day, 3 kids home, with no tv or internet. And my hubby was in LA.
Shoot me now.
