The Power

The power is back after a 22 hour absence and it is feeling warm again in here. At first I missed the Internet and TV when it first left us but it didn't take long to really miss the lights and heat. The snow didn't really disrupt the drive to work this morning and Dylan and Sam went to AARP for the day. That was not true for some I people I know who spent 6 to 8 hours to go 8 miles. Hard to believe but that was a common story around certain parts of DC. I was home yesterday with the boys and Nicole took Metro so we avoided that nightmare.

We are now basking in the heat of a fire, glow of the iPads and warmth an LCD TV.. Of course school has been cancelled tomorrow again for some unknown issue (literally, the streets are as dry as a bone) so the boys will be hanging out in our offices for part of the day tomorrow. I have a meeting I can't cancel and Nicole has a video town hall at 1pm. Oh, yeah the same type of system is heading this way for early next week. Tons of moisture from the gulf, spinning off the coast and dropping wet, heavy snow. We did lose some tree size branches from the bigs pines and maples but nothing landed on the house, this time..
