I'm happy to report that our power/ heat is back on! It was kind of fun at first when it went off, but then they told is it could take DAYS to turn back on and I semi freaked!! Chicago's weather has been crazzzy! We've been in the worst snow storm/ blizzard since 1967 (i'm not 100% that's legitimate, but that's what I've been told by a few ppl!). I was supposed to work from home all day, but since our internet was out I got a late start. Our car is COMPLETELY snowed in and our whole back alleyway is covered in 5+ feet of snow all the way down. It's cleared up for now, but supposedly it's going to show itself again tonight!
Chance and I tracked in the crazy snow to get to the train and then I worked from a Mikki D's with wireless downtown and Chance went in to work. As soon as I heard the power was back on I headed back to our place.
Blizzard blizzard blizzard! I wish Chance and I could have truly taken the day off and sat by the fire sipping hot cocoa (I don't even like hot cocoa, but that sounds fun, right?).
This is outside our front porch. We wish we would have parked the car in front since a plow actually came by. We'd at least be able to attempt to dig ourselves out!
Here's our back alley. Can you even see our car in this mess???!Anyway, overall I think it's kind of fun! I just wish Chance and I could have made it a total snow day and done fun old things without having to worry about work. Sadly, I have so much I still need to do for work so I should probably get back to it! Hope everyone is staying safe and warm!

I'm glad you guys are okay. I keep hearing about how bad it is in Chicago and I thought, "Who do I know in Chicago? Oh no! Pregnant Angela!" Glad to hear you have power and internet.
So, it's been in the low fourties, and currently 37 degrees and we think we are freezing to death!! I can not imagine how cold it must be and to not have heat this morning! I was so worried for you. It's too bad you don't have a sled and you could have a little fun. One year in MD we used a cookie sheet to take Emmet sledding. It really didn't work too well!:)
