The severe weather warning

We got an office-wide email alert yesterday titled, 'Severe Snowfall Expected in Vienna Area.' For the Vienna area, approximately 25 cm of snow is expected on Friday, 8 January [that's today]. The intense snowfall is expected to continue throughout the weekend and could accumulate to a height of 50-80 cm. That's 1.5-2.5 ft for you Americans. It didn't look too daunting this morning. But apparently, come noon that will all change.

Be prepared for another snowshoeing entry for Sunday, I don't think we will be able to make it to any high mountains in Claudia (our Citroen C3) and even if we did, I don't think we would be able to hike anywhere.

This gives me the perfect excuse to do what it is that I love more than anything: huddle up in my home-cave, guiltfree. Just hanging around the house, reorganizing, cleaning, cooking, reading, playing games or watching movies. Is there anything better?

  1. My dear beloved formerly favorite niece has a new blog. Chatty stories, nice photos, the works.

    Does she tell me about it? H*** no. Do I have to find out from another aunt person who gloats? H*** yes. Am I ensuring that aforementioned niece is deprived of her $1.78 inheritance? Damn shootin'. Always did like her brother better anyway.

  2. Finally I get to post a comment back to you! Every time I have logged on to this post, my comments box would not allow me to post back to you. Anyway...yes, I do have a blog - and here it is! Although I will miss my $1.78, I would probably have just given it to a Nigerian Prince anyway.
