digging out.

well, it stopped snowing. the sun is shining and i'm out to shovel. TH and i took a looooong walk last night to buy a shovel for our new apartment. it was only 9 blocks away, but felt like a lifetime with the wind and snow hitting our faces like a million prickly needles. but! we have a shovel and it was a good thing to go last night because they are all sold out this morning.

a few pictures from our walk last night (we now have somewhere around 30 inches on the ground. gah.)

i'm so so glad the sun is out. i'm so stir crazy and now it's time to put my back into it, and get rid of some of this snow!

ps i love being snowed-in in our new apartment, even if i am sleeping on a blow up mattress and TH is on the floor (sorry TH!). going to see about some furniture today...

pps don't worry mom, we're not living together yet

I called every store I could think of the other day and they all laughed at me for thinking they might have a shovel left.

Your snow storm is bringing back memories of Christmas 08 for us here in Portland... we were snowed in, shovels sold out everywhere, and the city declared "a state of emergency", all while trying to get ready for Christmas. Oh' the fun! Hope the sun keeps shining for ya. Are you really getting married in like 3 weeks? WHAT?!? Make sure that snow is gone by the time I get there :) Love ya! Heath
