the snow storm last monday really threw the city of seattle for a loop. there were cars sliding everywhere!
here's a snapshot of some cars piled up on our street. i didn't see it happen, but i assume they slid down the hill and bumped into each other. it was so bad that they just left it there for the past few days and blocked off our road.
it even made the cover of the seattle times on their website. i was like, "our street is famous!"
we had a hard time getting our car into our parking stall because of the ice, so kevin and i had to hammer at the ice and shovel it away.
it was FREEZING on tuesday and wednesday. plus we don't turn the heater on in our apartment a whole lot because we want to save on electricity. i'm starting to reexamine that decision.
i wore two scarves inside the apartment, (leopard AND zebra print) that's how cold it was!
thankfully the snow is starting to melt, so the roads are a lot safer. phew!

well jeeez! we just went by the hawaii house rules, and set the temp at 60 degrees constant. it made for a moderate use of heat.
let's find out at the end of the month : )
hope all's okay -
i heart this blog, seriously! how's ETSY? there's a girl in my class that does that on the side, she makes a 'G' a month! just doing letterpress!! sheesh!!
I think the temp while no one was home (Hawaii manor) was set to 50, and while people were home it was set to 65. I must say I love apartments for their "group heating" (when one apartment turns on the heat it automatically heats up everyone else's apart). At green lake we didn't even turn on the heater because we were in between the top and bottom floor so we absorbed everyone else's heat, it was great.
Anyways that is crazy about the streets, glad you could make it to turkey day, it was fun and your cake/ham/everything was delicious.
