About Me

While we are in one of the worst U.S. recessions ever and people are doing nearly anything to keep employment.

I elected to quit my job, without a new one to go to. I am figuring it out on my own, as my own employer. I have always loved to write, so I decided it was time to become a writer.

Because life is about more than just money?

It is time for me to do what it is I truly love to do.

Happiness Awaits

33 inches

That is the official total of snow that we got.  It is an absolutely insane amount of snow.  I am so sore from all the shoveling.  It actually kind of hurts to type because my forearms and wrist are sore.  It has been an interesting 36 hours.  The snow started Friday morning but didn’t start sticking until early afternoon.  Luckily Justin got out of work around noon and headed home.  His drive went smoothly and the roads got pretty bad soon there after.

We shoveled three times on Friday.  We set the alarm on the oven every two hours.  Two hours goes really quickly when it means bundling up and going to shovel for 40 minutes.

Then we woke out on Saturday morning to a TON of snow.  Shoveling Saturday morning was hard.  It took about two hours to get the driveway and sidewalks cleared. Our neighborhood is so wonderful and everyone was helping each other.  We ended up shoveling three different times on Saturday.

But by last night our driveway was clear and so was our little road.

We walked to the grocery store earlier today.The roads still aren’t clear outside our neighborhood.  I wouldn’t go anywhere unless it was an emergency, so we are just taking it easy and laying around.  Schools are already canceled Monday and Tuesday around here and we are supposed to get another snow storm Tuesday/Wednesday.  I think I can official say I am sick of snow and shoveling!

It was a memorable weekend!  I hope never to have to shovel this much snow ever again!

    This reminds me of a snow in Ithaca where I had to climb out a window onto snow shoes to shovel out the doors (they opened out). During that same storm I pet sat for neighbors 4 doors down and had to snow shoe to their house. There’s very little fun about this much snow.
