News: CNN.com – Blizzard could bring a foot of snow – Feb 11, 2006

The snow started mid-afternoon today as Sherri and I were leaving a furniture store. It was sticking to the ground almost immediately; it finally started to stick to the driveway around dusk. We’ll do a preliminary shoveling-of-the-driveway in a few hours, before we go to bed, and then the real fun starts in the morning.

So we were out shopping for living room furnishings. We’re looking for a new sectional couch, a nice rug, square coffee table, and two shades of paint. All to match. So far we found a couch, a rug, and paint colors we like, but we haven’t pulled the trigger on anything yet. Our goal is for a comfortable, “grown-up” living room… I’m confident the furnishings and paint we’ve targeted will accomplish that.

I’ll probably post some snow pictures tomorrow.
