Nemo


You've probably heard that here in the Boston area we're getting treated to some serious weather tonight.  A blizzard!

Thanks to this storm's name, I can't help thinking to myself, "Just keep snowing, just keep snowing..."

Nell says, "Bring it on, Nemo!"


{Yes, in honor of the blizzard, I pulled out a stuffed Nemo for Nell to play with today, left here accidentally last time my friend Story and her kids visited.  Sorry, Joneses; I hope you're not missing your Nemo too much.}

This is predicted to be the worst storm to hit this area since the blizzard of 1978, when some people trying to get home from work actually died in their idling cars as the exhaust pipes became covered with snow.  Survivors were evacuated from vehicles stuck on the highway by cross country skiers and snowshoers.

Our governor banned transportation starting at 4:00 pm today, with a penalty of a $500 fine or up to a year in jail if people venture out on the roads tonight.

So, suffice it to say, we're staying cozy here at home, with a fire in the fireplace, our electronic devices charging in case of a power outage, and really hoping the load of diapers in the laundry can get finished before such a hypothetical power outage might occur.




Nell loves looking out the window in our front door -- or is it just touching the cold glass she really likes?




Who could mind the little finger prints left behind when faced with a smile like this one?




Stay safe and warm, New Englanders!

  1. I did all our diapers too! Hopefully we don't lose power for too long (if we even do) as we have no disposables on hand. Oops. Oh well, stay warm!!
