What are you doing Christmas Eve?

The fridge is full, the liquor cupboard is full, we have a stack of rented movies and the snow is almost touching my ass.

It snowed and snowed and snowed so much that I am losing my view. That's a couple of feet there and I can't push it off onto the sidewalk below and I don't want to add all that weight to the deck. I miss my view.
Yes, this snow thing is for real.

What it means is this, no one is going anywhere. All day I was seeing people loading their suitcases and presents into their cars and I wondered how many of them would actually reach their destinations without having to deal with a pantload of stress and two miles of ditch for every mile of road. It's pretty gnarly on the main roads but as soon as you go anywhere off the main route it's a truly bad scene. My driving experience was last night and it was a scary ride home. We've had at least 20cm of snow since then.

We will have to miss a lovely dinner with Superman's family, including 7 week old Natasha, in White Rock tonight, Christmas Eve.
We will also have to miss our Christmas day dinner with my family in Chilliwack tomorrow afternoon.
There's nothing to be done, no one to whine to and we all agree that it's not safe to travel. When you think about it, we are only stretching out Christmas and learning how to spend Christmas a different way. We will still get to have those special days only on a different date.
Christmas is going to be different this year, celebrated on a day other than Christmas, but that's okay. The important part and the thing that makes it Christmas is being with the people you love.
Right now I am with my beloved, I am warm, I am safe and I am thankful.

Merry Christmas Everyone!
