Surviving Nemo

Because of Winter Storm Nemo, I did not leave my property for almost 92 hours. That is almost 4 days, people. I worked from home and I didn't really wear real clothes from Friday afternoon until this morning. My whole town and pretty much the whole state was shut down.It was pretty crazy. And on top of it, I went to start my car this morning and there was just nothing. Completely dead. I mean...it could definitely have been worse. At least we didn't lose power, but it still wasn't fun to be stuck in the house for days on end. So how did I stay sane, you may ask? By building snow forts and a snowman, playing with my dog, and coming across an online version of Settlers of Catan. I know. That's pretty nerdy right there...but I love it!

Allow me to take you on a snow-filled journey through the magical land of my backyard...

Needless to say, I haven't taken any outfit pictures. I'm hoping to be able to take some tomorrow, just in time for Valentine's Day! Speaking of, I still need to get to the store and buy some supplies!
