Adventures Without Power and Nemo Updates

Due to Storm Nemo I, along with the majority of my town, have been without power since Friday night. This had definitely made for an interesting weekend.

Unfortunately Jay has been out working pretty much constantly since the storm started. This has led to us probably spending a whole hour together in the last three days. Very unusual for us and definitely now my first choice on how to spend the storm but at least he's making some extra cash!

As for me, I've been spending the last few days knitting, reading, and playing card games with my family (along with plotting out where to next charge my phone of course haha). We were worried that it was going to get too cold today but lucky one of our neighbors hooked us up to his generator so now we have heat, some electricity, and are able to run our refrigerator! Feeling very lucky and grateful today.

Here are some pictures of the damage Nemo has left behind:

Storm Nemo & Snow Days

If you live anywhere near New England you've been hearing about the Nemo Storm for the past few days. Predicted to drop anywhere from 10 to 30 inches of snow between tonight and tomorrow Nemo has shut down businesses, schools, and cities across Massachusetts. Normally I would be working today but because of Nemo I have a suprise snow day! (Yes they are just as fun and almost more exciting as an adult haha)

How am I spending my snow day? Knitting, catching up on episodes of Downton Abbey (watched the first episode last night and am officially hooked!), and drinking wine are at the top of my list. 

Are you in an area that is supposed to be affected by Nemo? How are you riding out the storm?
