Merry Christmas! Even though we're snowed in at our house in Omaha, Jeff and I decided to make the best of it. We each opened a gift (as you an see on the right, Jeff wraps SO well, LOL), and watched movies. Around 10:30 we played One vs. the Mob on the XBox 360. Jeff said he wanted to stay up for a bit, but I went to bed around midnight. And, it's a good thing I did!
Santa Claus came sometime after I went to bed! He brought me an Wii Fit, which is good, because since I threw my back out I've been jonesing for some yoga.
Although we're making the best of it, it's still sad to not be in Iowa for the holidays with my family. It's the one time of year we stay overnight there, so it's always special. But, anyway, the bottom picture on the right shows why we couldn't go: we've been in a Blizzard Warning since 6 p.m. Christmas Eve, and a Winter Storm Warning since 6 a.m. Christmas Eve morning. We already have 4 foot drifts everywhere (some higher!), and 20 hours left of this storm.
Unfortunately, the track of the storm changed, so we're in for even more snow. They're now saying we could get 18 inches. I think I liked it more when we were in the 9-12 inch range.
And, we have learned a lesson, Jeff will be taking two days of vacation around the holidays from now on.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL!
