Baby it’s cold outside….

Good morning! I hope it’s warm where you are because here in Michigan it is FREEZING! The wind chill was zero this morning. Yikes! I’ve officially added an electric blanket to my Christmas wish list. To make matters worse, last night we didn’t have any hot water. And no, I don’t live out in the country, so I have no idea what happened. I am a night-time shower person….mostly because it takes me forever to do my hair, and I just don’t have time for it in the mornings. And there was no way I was going to take a cold shower last night…it was SO cold. Luckily the husband re-set the hot water heater and we had hot water this morning. (Thank you God!).
Of course I didn’t have time to shower this morning…so I am a hot mess today. Hopefully my co-workers don’t notice!
This weekend we pretty much stayed inside watching movies and drinking hot chocolate. It was perfect. We also finished our Christmas shopping….I am SO excited to be done and to get everything wrapped and under the tree!
And I realize the above photo has nothing to do with this post….but it’s cute. So how was your weekend?

    Try to stay warm. When the weather is that brutal, a hot shower can be a small piece of paradise. Glad you got to have yours!

Baby it’s cold outside…

It has been sooo cold out here in Michigan. So we’ve been spending lots of time snuggling together inside, trying to keep warm. Pancake has been snuggling extra close to us these days because he feeling the chill too. Today the weather report is calling for a warming trend…only in Michigan would 30 degrees be considered “warm”. Remind me why I live here again?

Baby It’s Cold Outside

Today I woke up to this outside our condo.

I am a total wimp when it comes to snow storms…but even for Michiganders, this was bad. We had white-out conditions, where it is very difficult to see.

I got dressed for work and tried to make it to my car…but the snow almost went up to my knee…no joke. I made it as far as the dumpster before turning back around and heading inside. I do NOT like to drive in bad weather. Luckily when I called in to work they said “don’t come in” so I was excited…snow day!

Wait, what is this?

A little kitty snuck out to join me…he waits by the door for any chance to run outside.

Usually he is not a big fan of the snow, but today he wanted to try it out!

Pancake, Henry, and I are enjoying our snow day…be safe everyone…especially those of you in California who have 3 inches of rain…wimps.
