We officially received 29.5 inches of snow over the weekend and I did a pretty good job of avoiding the couch!
On Saturday,while Hub was outside shoveling and blowing the aforementioned inches, I got out the sewing machine and sewed the livingroom valances that I’ve put off doing for over two years. I then made 5 lobs of meatballs and did a zillion loads of wash. Come to think of it, I don’t think I read at all on Saturday.
On Saturday night, we made hot shots. You make a cup of instant hot chocolate – I prefer the kind with extra mini marshmallows. Then you add a shot of butterscotch schnapps to the mug. Delicious!!!
Yesterday, Hub and youngest son went to the Philadelphia Car Show and daughter was at her boyfriend’s house so I had the house to myself!!!!!!! Well, except for Lola, but she doesn’t bug me. I cleaned and did more laundry and then I ran to the couch and read for two hours and then napped for two hours. I thought it was funny when I woke up and realized that I was scrunched onto the loveseat while the cat was stretched out on the couch.
That cat is so damn spoiled!
Of course, we watched the Super Bowl last night and while we watched, I finally sewed the hem on my supervisor’s pants. She was thrilled when I handed them to her this morning. She immediately changed into them and I must say, I did a great job. I know it’s not hard to hem a pair of pants, but I’m such a perfectionist that I steamed them afterwards and the creases were sharp enough to cut butter. Butter I tell ya, butter!
My coworkers are losing their minds about the impending snow storm. We’re supposed to be getting another 10 to 18 inches on Tuesday night into Wednesday. People are dropping like flies asking for Wednesday or Thursday off from work. I’m just gonna play it by ear – if I can get the Durango out of the driveway, I’ll go to work – if I can’t, I won’t. I’m not losing sleep over this – I hate to waste a vacation day because of the snow, but so be it.
