So, we escaped the house yesterday to SJ & BJ's house. Mainly because we were sick of the same walls and the intermittent power drops, and also because our normal Christmas celebration is to go bowling and to the movies as a group. However, because of the snow and ice on the roads that was not to be. So instead we trooped over here and brought our jammies as well.
Unfortunately our passenger tire chain broke as we pulled into park at the house, so here we still are.
SJ and I took Middle Spawn and Her Boy off to their place so that they could try and get the chains off of his car (they accidentally got one wrapped around the axel) and they needed a jack to get it up, so we took them in and dropped them off with a jack and headed out to do chores. Later we found out the jack BENT while they were attempting to use it, so we'll need to get it replaced soon.
Mainly we were wanting to go to the company store and to see if we could find another set of chains (no luck on the chain front) but we did make it to the company store. Then we went to Whole Foods to pick up dinner stuff -- today there was no way to make it up the hill without chains at the moment to go back home and made the plans to stay the night here again.
The plan tomorrow is to have the Spouse attempt to take the other Two Spawn home (hopefully they will be able to get there) and I will stay one more night and doggie sit for the guys so they could go and do their normal Saturday stuff.
So now we are relaxing from dinner and just sorta sitting around and vegging while SJ tries to figure out his new XBox and we wait for the pie to cool enough to cut (apple cranberry....yum). |
