So I spent the first three snow days holed up with two 'turtledoves'. Lord help me, there is not enough Pinterest posts or Cupcake wine to get me through another blizzard.
I love my children. But if Bee attempts to flush her brother down the potty again, she is going to learn early what an ultimate swirly is.
I thought laundry magically appeared on the floor and by the machine and everywhere but NOT where it was supposed to be (closet, drawers, etc.) I was wrong. I did 8 loads in one day....EIGHT LOADS and I still had laundry to do the next day! HOW is that possible?
Seeing as how all of the supermarkets ran out of staples like bread and milk, I took it upon myself to munch on the not so popular snacks. I felt an obligation. Hey, I eat a lot anyways. Now I'm stuck in a house with no other adults to monitor me? Yeah, I'm going to eat. And I ate. In fact, I ate an entire bag of mini marshmallows in one day. I know, it surprised me too!
Getting crafty and gutsy do NOT mix. I turned out several successful projects over the span of a few days. However my confidence grew at an alarming rate and was overestimated. Would you like an example? I knew you would.
I still had the ridiculous pumpkins by my door from Thanksgiving. Do not judge, I'm a working mother and I'm completely unorganized. I digress.
Not wanting to 'waste' the pumpkins (Husby convinced me that they were way past the point of using for pies or seeds...), I decided to paint the rounded gourds to look like Christmas ornaments.
Yup. Sure did. And they look....well....they look like someone just painted pumpkins...not the cutes-y vision I had in my head.
It's a safe bet TPS knew I needed to get back into the working groove. Bestie Aide knew instantly when I picked up a pair scissors that were almost twice my height...to cut string.
How did you survive Blizzard 2013?
XOXO Summer
