Survived the Blizzard...Kinda

So we survived the 6th largest snowfall in history in this area.  I think we received about 20" here in southeast CT with 50 mile/hr winds.  Nuts.  It doesn't help that the plows aren't around and the commuter trains are out of commission.  Plus the dogs are quite unhappy that the snow hits their bellies.  Thankfully the kids are with their grandparents on a little 'staycation' in Cape Cod otherwise all hell would be breaking loose.



Meanwhile the better 1/2 and I have been down for the count - the flu has invaded our house.  Let's just say that we've been keeping CVS in business in between long naps.  So what do you do when hit with the double whammy of blizzard and flu?  I took the decorations off our mostly dead tree (note all the needles on the floor).


I utilized one of my favorite inventions ever - the PediEgg.  I highly recommend it for those of you who are unfamiliar.  The bottom of my feet are like a baby's bottom now.


If I was well, then I would be adhering to my favorite motto...but no such luck.  Bummer.


I also checked out every favorite fashion site and after examining the Lilly page, decided that I really should be in Anguilla on the beach with a pina colada in hand instead of dealing with all the 'excitement' in CT (too bad my bod doesn't look this but one can pretend).



Signing off for now because it's time for a disco nap...
