Twitter’s trending word topics for the DC area during this massive HISTORIC, EPIC, monstrous, dangerous (I’m just using the words the media has used) include: snowpocalypse, snowtoriousbig and snomageddon and my favorite, snOMG (as in oh my god).
Our family just ventured out for about an hour and it’s insane. Many layers required — so as to NOT be able to walk or move arms easily. Then it’s fine. I had to borrow my husband’s long johns that, thankfully, shrunk in the wash last time so now they’re mine. I was wearing an ugly, puffy, red, marshmallow-looking down LLBean jacket and some 1985 bright yellow snow pants I found last week (as I purged my closet for this impending move)…so I looked magazine-model-smokin’-hot ready! But I was warm. I measured 18″ in one spot but it was def more in other places as it topped my knees! We def have snow drifts.
My boy is there — this is NOT out of focus (look at his teeth!) the wind was making the snow horizontal!!!!
Jack was making a single path to get to the street. We are not bothering with shoveling the driveway. Yet.
PURTY house.
The snow is nearly up to Harry’s thighs.
