[Photos from 1 December 2015, posted online 3 February\u00a02016. \u00a0It’s bad, I know!<\/em>]<\/p>\n

The weather forecast predicted so much snowfall on this day, that most adults who\u00a0could work from home, did so, me included. \u00a0So I said goodbye to the kids, and then had a lovely day working from home. \u00a0It’s entirely possible that when I get back on my two feet, that I’ll try to institute a work-from-home day every month.<\/p>\n

Once they got home, I put up the insta-photo-studio, manged to convince the kids to put nice clothes on, and then I took photos to use for a Christmas card. \u00a0The card got made, but was never printed, and was only distributed online<\/a>. \u00a0Oh well, there’s always next year!<\/p>\n

Bjarni came over for dinner, and then I took photos of the copious\u00a0amount of snow covering the ground, after two days of snowfall.<\/p>\n

Photos! (26 photos total)<\/p>\n
