Soo has it turned out to be a blizzard?

theteno , its pretty light. I think we may have 4 inches. We're in SJ, so I doubt we'll get much more, although it is still coming down. Did you know that The Gov enacted a travel ban last night?

I had no idea!

I seriously dislike dunkin donuts.  It's a small MA chain, but I am hoping Marylou's takes over.

Marylou's=okay. .. Dunks=lifeblood. IMHO

For the record, I do like Marylou's, although I highly doubt they will take over. Still a DD girl at heart

We're up to about 20" here and it's supposed to snow for another 8 hours or so. Ugh.

Maybe about 8 inches here. So lame! Oh and so annoyed that my neighbor came to knock on the door and made my dog bark, thus waking the sleeping baby. He wanted to know if we needed our driveway done. I'm not sure if he was offering for free, but DH said "no thanks"

At least in Massachusetts, it is. Still on going, too. I doubt I'm going to work tomorrow, even if they don't call it off.

[Chrisse]

Ha. Nope.

Front door update.

Holy cow Chrisse! I think the official amount here is somewhere around 18 inches. We have some fairly big snow drifts against the fence at our house, but the wind cleaned the vehicles off for us (win!).

I have a bad feeling work will be open tomorrow, but if it still looks crappy outside, I have no problem calling out.

Yea, the drifts are insane. My poor car - I left my wipers up and the drifts are so high over my car that you can't even see the top of the wipers.

I have no idea what the current amount is, but we were at 20" a few hours ago and the snow is still coming down. I heard on the news to expect probably another six inches before storm fully moves out to sea.

I'm not even cleaning my car off until tomorrow. Sorry, work!

That's a definite win! I remember during hurricane sandy when we were surveying our damage we were like "well, at least the wind blew all the fall leaves out of our yard!" It's the little things!

Anyone hear about the Boston Yeti? I giggled, then immediately followed it on Twitter.

Ha! Yes! And as things tend to go on Twitter, I ended up giggling over this...

Marylou's...man I miss that! SO GOOD and I don't even like coffee.

We got about 20 inches here, the family and my freezer stock are doing fine.
