Good morning from the arctic! Class and work are cancelled again today.

…Which is a good thing, considering these are just waiting for me to open my front door:

Gah!! Icicles of death. I still have a cut on my hand from one of them attacking me on Monday morning. They’re back with a vengeance!!

The snow finally stopped last night around 7. Apparently D.C. has officially set a new record: 54.9 inches of snow so far this season!!! That beats out the old 54.4” record from 1898-99.

I feel kind of like I live on a mountain or something. Too bad I don’t own skis!

Now it’s time to start digging ourselves out of this mess… at least the sun is shining today 🙂

I’m going to head outside to do a little exploring around the neighborhood… fresh air would be a good thing!

Check back in a bit… I’m working on a super fun post including a GIVEAWAY for later today! 🙂

    Wow! I have never seen anything like that! Is that a normal winter for you? It must be really hard to make yourself go outside sometimes.
    Absolutely not!!! D.C. normally gets like ONE day where there's a light dusting and everyone freaks out, and that's it. This is absurd. -Anne
