Day 8.036: Exile #2's Sunday Column #44

It was with some relief that we woke up to find only 4 or 5 inches of snow had fallen in the night. In our current, slightly crazed state of mind, this is a light dusting. The weather warnings had been alarmingly vague ahead of time, promising anything from 2 to 40 inches of snow and warning against venturing out for fear of "disorientation" and life threatening exposure. We're glad we were closer to the 2 than the 40 inch total. Massachusetts was not so fortunate, however and may well be entirely buried by now.

Thank goodness for board games is all I can say. We have made good use of them this winter and did so again today, managing 3 full games of Catan, using our new expansion pack, which arrived at last having been delayed by the snow.

The snow has been causing all sorts of delays to deliveries. Amazon Prime's two-day delivery is pretty much meaningless at the moment. Interestingly, it seems to have also affected the tooth fairy's rounds. She caught up with herself last night, however. Here's the reason for her house call.
