It’s about half past 7 this morning, and I’ve already been ‘sort of up’ for over 2 hours due to the fact that I thought we were getting a snow-storm overnight and would have to get up to clear out the driveway.
Years previous I’ve always had my neighbour clear out my driveway as he ran a snow plow during the frosty months. That part of the business has come to an end, so I was debating on whom to get to do the job… when all of a sudden.. out of nowhere.. dammit, it snowed.
SOO.. I took out my trusty snow blow shovel thing (the big scoopy one), and did the job in about 30 minutes, and a good job I did I may add, it got me to thinking that perhaps I don’t need to get a service to do it, maybe I can get by with my plow and some hard work – god knows I could use the exercise. I think my health insurance leads me in the direction of shoveling to get some exercise – god knows they don’t want me to get hurt though!
Now I’ve come to realize that the storm is supposed to arrive TONIGHT and not tomorrow.. oh well, as long as it starts later in the evening so I can make the vet appointment I really don’t care as I’ll be nice and warm in the house with Liz and the hounds likely watching ‘The Blind Side’ which just came out as a DVD Screener (see this post to find out how to get it!)
I guess I’ll decide tomorrow whether or not I’ll be shoveling this year or saying ‘to hell with it’ and getting a service. Oh, and no.. I dont’ want to get a snowblower as unfortunately I have no place to store it, plus I don’t even like the silly things.
