On Saturday, Hubby and I went out to clear our driveway. It’s about 400 feet up hill, and since our snow blower died, we had done almost no shoveling. But with ice forecast for tomorrow, we decided to go out and clear the drive off.
We worked for two hours. I carefully slid the snow off the drive to the ditches on either side. The good news is, we got the drive completely cleared and so when it began to rain we were all set. Now, if we get ice? Well, I think we will be in for a while.
After we finished, we changed into dry clothes and then took off to do the last of our Christmas shopping.
We stopped at our local Chinese Buffet, where a few weeks ago I had dropped my credit cards on their floor. Our usual waitress picked them up and saved them for me and today I brought a little something for her and told her how much I appreciated her actions. She was really happy, and I think she appreciated the fact that I had not taken her kindness for granted.
Then Hubby and I hit the Outlet Mall. We went into a few stores and I kept running into people I knew. It was so much fun! Hubby kept joking that I knew more people at the Mall than the Governor of our State!
We got home in time to feed the hounds, and about that same time, my joints began to ache. All that snow and slush shoveling! So now I think a nice hot bath will be a good way to relax!
That certainly was a giant work ! Fortunately we don’t have a lot to shuffle, only the entrance of the garage. Nobody cleans the sidewalk, and the streets are cleaned by the city. Anyway instead of snow we have rain and storm. Just finished all my Christmas gift wrapping !
