Long Commute in the Blizzard

How long was my commute yesterday?  Long enough to read this whole book, cover to cover. 

I had picked up a copy of a childhood favorite this weekend while dropping off two boxes of books at the used bookstore in town. I had gone through my young adult books and decided to only keep my really favorite favorites from childhood. And there were two books that I loved but didn't have. So made a deal to get the 2 books if I let go of the 20 books. 

Yesterday morning - not so bad but going home.... Let's just say it took 30 minutes to go 2 stops that I could have walked in 10 minutes. It hadn't really started to snow yet but had been quite cold so think that was what caused all the delays. It was so uncomfortable standing on the subway - I was wedged in. The upside was that I was able to finish my book. 

Now just gearing up for the "storm of the century". We're supposed to get at least 2 feet and the wind is crazy. The roads are shut down along with the subway and bus system so it's truly a snow day. 

This weekend I enjoyed the first snow storm of the year. Got about 8" and Sunday morning, after sleeping over I was building forts and having snowball fights. 

We each built our own bed in the fort. Cameron's is very skinny. 

Maggie's is a crib. 

It was such a beautiful morning - crisp blue skies.
