Winter Wonderland

Dec 19, 2009

This weekend was a madhouse.  First, Friday AM, one of my twins had (planned) knee surgery.  She was born with a defect that had to be fixed.  The doc had to do some unexpected bone work, so she's in major pain.  One of the small incisions started bleeding through all the padding and ace bandage, so we had to go to Emergency Room on Friday nite.  Ughhh!   Hate that.  She was in so much pain!  But, it was just the swelling causing the stitches to pull and the incision to bleed a lot.  Not serious, just annoying. 

Then we got hammered with 2 feet of snow.  Maryland (or at least this part of MD) is really not equipped to handle that kind of downfall.  We have just so many plows here, and they're working round the clock, but my street hasn't been plowed once yet.  But the blizzard was FUN!   The kids probably won't have school tomorrow and I probably won't have to go to work!  We're on our third shoveling of the driveway.  Our pool cover collapsed, too.  UGGHHH it's probably broken.  Guess it'll just stay broken for a while! 

And, we have 2 sick animals.  A gerbil with probably cancer and a chincilla with a cold.  You always worry about the furry little creatures when they are ill. 

I made TONS of cookies yesterday.  Lots of fun.  The kids & I will decorate them today, and give them away this week...that's what we do. 

Church was cancelled, good thing, don't think I could get there anyway.  DOn't think I could get off my street,  or maybe out of my driveway.  We're gonna have a White Christmas!!!  Whoo hoo.
