I live about an hour north of New York City and I only got 16 inches here. I'm probably about 2-3 hours drive from where the really heavy snow hit. I just wish this would have happened wednesday or thursday so that work would be canceled for a couple of days.

However, it'll cleaned up by the end of the weekend here and I'll have to go back to work as usual on monday.

I just woke up my two daughters (aged 2 and 4). The sleep in a room with the curtains closed so, until I lift the shades and open the curtains, they have no idea what it looks like outside. I spent the last 30 minutes trying to convince my daughter that all the snow that she say before she went to bed melted and that the flowers were blooming and birds were flying around everywhere. Then I opened the curtains and showed her what it looked like outside and she was shocked. We are cooking pancakes right now and, after we eat them, we're going to be spending the morning outside playing in the snow. We didn't get as much as some of the guys here did, but the snow is easily up to my oldest daugter's waist. She's going to have a blast!
