Cabin Fever and A Baby that Won’t Sleep

canin fever, eastern kentucky, snowpocalypse, winter

Eastern Kentucky is a heck of a place to live. It’s beautiful country with state parks and lakes.

But February and Mother Nature have been hatin’ on EKY lately. First, 12 plus inches of snow in 24 hours, then -20 degree temps. Allow me to cut to the chase.

I. HAVE NOT. LEFT MY HOUSE. IN OVER A WEEK.

I’d play in the snow but it’s no fun for a 30 year old with shoes that are mostly mesh and no kids around (Hubster is not the “play in the snow” type). So the furthest I’ve gone is the end of my porch.

Combine that with a baby who won’t sleep unless held (yes, I blame myself) and you have oodles of frustration.

Without the structure of work to my days, I’ve lost tract of how long I’ve been inside. I could check my call in record, but I’d rather not.

Guess who else has been home this entire time. That’s right. Hubby. Except he got out. Twice.

He still says my chances of work tomorrow are 50/50. If it weren’t going to be so cold, and it weren’t 10 miles to my workplace, I’d just about hoof it.

Who knew I’d ever be this desperate.

Scenario: the weatherman has forecast epic amounts of snow, more than a foot. You have less than 12 hours before the storm blows in and your in the store. What do you buy? How do you go about it?

Personally, I would make a list of the vital items, and make my way through the store in stages as quickly and efficiently as possible. In and out.

I would not:
-buy live fish
-worry about dying my hair
-look for that mousse that my friend uses, the name of which I don’t know
-browse the already picked through Valentine’s clearance
-buy that gallon or two of paint in that color I had mixed.
-let my Tweens giggle over make-up and my small children run rampant through toys
