Day One: Prepare for Snow-sault...
~ Stock fridge with food. DH came home with twice as much steak as I requested but "forgot" the lettuce.
~ Stock bar with wine & liquor. You know, for warmth!
~Unexpected power outage around 9:30pm. DH worries about heat for the babies, while I stress about our wireless internet access.
~ Remain calm and light candles. Note to self: Buy some non-scented candles. Our house still smells like a mixture of Christmas pine and black cherry with a hint of lily. PS that combo does not smell good.
~ When all out of conversation (aka DH is tired of me talking) go to bed earlier than either of us has since Baby Deux's birth.
Day Two: Snow-vasion continues
~ Thank God for the return of power and immediately make coffee, check twitter and reset all the clocks. Note to self: Add coffee press to list of items needed in our home emergency kit.
~ Make ginormous breakfast of fried eggs, bacon and homemade biscuits.
~ Super DH heads out (without his superhero cape) to shovel the house out. Roof and all!
~ Bundle up and go play in the snow with DH and the baby. Baby Duex stays inside and sleeps through it all. He's so lazy, right?
~ Dry off and eat again. What is it about snow days that makes me want to eat everything in my fridge?! S'now not okay. tee hee hee
~ Put baby to bed and start making Chicken Tortilla Soup and Quesadillas for dinner. Soup was delicious by the way but I can still feel the burn from the jalepeno. Its the next day and I've even showered. How long does it take capsaicin to leave your skin???
~ Atempt to rent a movie on On-Demand. Denied AGAIN and resort to watching Baby Mamma on HBO! What tha? I swear I paid the bill this time! Darn you Comcast! **shakes fist wildly in the air**
Day Three: Snow-bored
~ Wake up leisurely at 9:30. WHAT? Sweet DH lets me and Baby Duex sleep in as he wrestles with the drooling mess that is our older son.
~ Make another monster breakfast ~ Meegas the size of Chipotle Burritos!
~ Survey the quickly dwindling contents of our fridge.
~ Realize that the neighborhood cheese shop is closed again today rendering my fondu SuperBowl menu defunct. Worse yet is the realization that the only store open in walking distance is 7-11 and begin a very unhealthy "grocery" list.
Silver lining... we still have plenty of good wine so I will not be forced to buy any from 7-11. At least that's something!
Cheers,
Ousier

watch the Oscar movies we haven't seen On Demand...
GREAT idea... assuming we can order a movie On-Demand. I think Comcast hates us.
