What do YOU do??

What do you do when you're snowed in in Southeast Wyoming? Maybe some of the same things that we do? Eat, play Farkel, play Farkel again, lose at Farkel, win at Farkel, play a Farkel tie-breaker, play Scrabble, watch the snow blow by, eat, make cards, make picture frames, eat, study, read, watch the snow pile up, eat, play the piano, forge out into the blizzard to take pictures, deeply regret going outside but continue to get bombed into drifts and hit in the face with ice balls just for the benefit and dramatic effect of pictures, come in and drink hot cocoa, warm hands by the fire- oh wait, no fire- ask for a fire, find out the the stove vents are frozen shut and full of snow, turn up the heat in lieu of fire, eat, talk about the snow, make up competitions about snow drift height, call friends to discuss the blizzard, check to see how many roads are closed, take a mental inventory of the refrigerator and freezer, wonder if we'll have enough food, make cookies to freeze just incase, watch the lights flicker, exhale with relief when they stay on, see if there's anything new on www.bored.com....... the list goes on and on.
Anyway, maybe this weather instigated lockdown will cause me to catch up on my blogging. Sorry about the serious lack lately.
Here's some pictures and a video clip of the storm. What's that? The phone? ABC News just called- they offered me a job as a storm reporter. I explained that I'm quite content here, besides, one near death experience per winter is plenty for me...








Tim and Myrna are rad - we're stuck at their place, and they're taking great care of us. (Also, they wanted me to say something nice about them online.)
