(Dave with the snowblower ... taken with my iPhone, wearing no shoes. What I do for the blog ...)
We live in Colorado. We expect snow. We aren't complaining. Just wanting to show you what we're got so far ... we are guessing 2 feet so far, with more to come today. Read more here.
The snow blower was one of the first purchases Wayne made when we moved here 3 years ago. The first year it was never used. And I might have complained about the waste of space and money it was. And then we got a HUGE storm that stopped the city for 3 days. I started to warm up to the blower.
And today, I am so glad we have it! Dave plowed through the snow like it was nothing, and off to chemo they went. Everything is closed today ... except for the hospital. Bless them and their staff.
The kids and I have not gotten out of our jammies in 2 days (except to bathe, of course) and we've been cooking up a storm in the kitchen - soups, a roast, carnitas, muffins ... Yes, I went to the store to stock up (but forgot to go to the liquor store, which, lets be honest, being locked in the house with 2 kids ... I should have stopped there first).
In all honesty, we're warm, cozy, and feeling blessed that Wayne's chemo treatment is able to continue through this crazy, crazy storm.

I wish I was stranded at your house right now. Sounds fun. We could make up a big batch of Schnocolate (peppermint schnapps and hot chocolate, yum).
ReplyDeleteI know it is a pain to many, but what I wouldn't give for a big ol' blizzard!!
You know I mowed my first lawn in May. Could I be plowing my first driveway in December?
