951 - Blizzard 2013 hits

Day 951 Britt was overjoyed the buses were not running as the storm had settled in during the night. she went back to bed for not long when she found Coco had threw up all over her bed depositing deer hair everywhere!! She then spent the day washing ALL her bedding including duvet, mattress pad etc but at least all is fresh now! She and I enjoyed snuggling up under the covers and watching episodes of Pioneer Woman cooking show. The internet went down at 10 and would not come back again for the day.
The wind howled all day long with visibility only to the fence. Diego hunkered down in the garage only braving the cold 3 times during the day. I was inspired by my brief look on pinterest early this am and the cooking shows and made a cheeseburger soup. However once the internet was down I lost the recipe. Amanda found one online similar and text me the pictures of it. Thanks AJ!!
Shaina was like Diego and stayed mostly in her room having a Harry Potter marathon but made cookies in late afternoon since could not get to town to work her shift. I spent many hours doing accounting, yes I missed GST deadline again but was limited due to internet being down. I then put a dark coat of wax and buffed it out on the yellow window completing it for the customer.


It was a great day to catch up on PVR shows and cleaning. The girls stayed up until the wee hours watching movies. Diego decided that indeed he needed a bathroom break at 3 am so I let him out and the girls let him back in but not before Shaina felt sorry for Mr j howling outside her window. She called him in and he drank a ton of water. Britt was worried about Mitzy so braved the howling winds and went out to the shop to rescue her. She had to go back a 2nd time to secure the door while Diego went out again to do more business. By 4 am I think we were all safely back in the house, me cozy in my bed!
