Snow

Well, as you might have heard, the Chicago area got hit with quite a bit of snow over the last 24 hours. And it's still coming down. We are buried, and roads are bad.

We lost power for a couple of hours yesterday, but, once it came back on, it stayed on. Though it's flickering again this morning, so I'm desperately hoping we don't lose it again.

I am completely knackered, because our next-door neighbor was snow-blowing his driveway until 2am last night, and his driveway is right on the other side of our bedroom wall. He wasn't being an inconsiderate jerk, btw: He works rotating shifts at the mill, and that was the only time he was home to do it. So I'm not mad at all; I'm just very tired.

Anyway! How's it going by you? Everyone doing all right?
