yup, it's snowing like mad here, they really blew the forecast, at least two inches on the ground and piling up fast. Still 26 degrees out so not going to melt in a hurry... If there's five inches in MD, well that's probably what we'll get too.
Enough that monday morning will surely involve some shoveling. At least not much wind, so the power is still on; doubt we'll make it through the night though.
I am feeling quite satisfied that I actually got the tree up myself. A plain cut it yourself tree would have been much easier. It took me almost half an hour before I could find the connector buried in there, as the lights came on for the top, and the bottom, and nothing in between. Several aha moments and all the lights came on. That's enough for me today, maybe I'll put some ornaments on, maybe do some tomorrow. It was the three hours of house cleaning and floor mopping before I could start with the tree that tuckered me out first. The bird feeders are all full and they are having a serious party out there, the fireplace is warming things up nicely downstairs. I think I may watch a movie in the den, with the fire, and ponder further decorating possibilities, from inside my eyelids... Now that's my way of making it through the storm...
