Enough with the snow already

[MM_QFC!]

... And I'm on vay-cay next week.

I hope that you're able to get out safely and enjoy your vacation; think I remember you posting that you're going skiing...so, it may be strange to say this, but I hope that it's snowy whereever you're going too!

All my facebook friends in Colorado, Washington state, Utah, and Idaho are asking me to send them my snow so they can ski.

Mr. Bobcat plowed me out again
So I drove down to the local store and bought a cafe mocha and a twix bar
I'm just fine but I'm wondering who these fools are that are stuck out on the roads around here

Ima get me one of these-

It's either time for a glass of wine or time to hit the trainer.

Go for the wine. Drink it in the bathtub, preferably with bubbles.

Zen, come summer you'll be able to get rid of your weeds with that torch. Now isn't that a nice thought?

I shoveled for about 4 hours today. There is so much snow and slush in the middle of our parking lot, plus 3 parking spaces full of giant snow piles. I'll be out shoveling again this weekend.

And now there is water leaking in at the top of my bathroom window. Which is kind of disturbing since I live on the 2nd floor of a 3 story building and the outside of the building is dry all around the window. We've also got a broken downspout.

Time for a shower. I ache.

We went ahead and did the "lawn chair in our cleared spaces" option so no SOB would park in them.

The guy up the street has created a huge wall beside his car---in the ROAD. The damn thing is 3 feet high.

As I started typing this, a county plow/salt truck went up the hill, followed by a FRONT END LOADER! This is the first plow visit since blizzard #2. Made my day. I gotta go watch this!

Update: they are doing a great job clearing the road. I think I'll drive to the pool instead of walking there (it's about 3/4 of a mile or so away, and probably not everyone has shoveled out sidewalks).

My street has still not been plowed, not for either storm, not even once.

Someone did that in my lot. When my neighbor the cop came home yesterday, he parked in that space, even though the space next to it was empty.

Driving to work this morning was generally okay. Not slippery because the roads were clear down to the pavement, but slow because lanes are narrowed due to snow piles. The worst was the S-curve at the top of the hill leading out of my neighborhood. Only one lane open and you can't see oncoming traffic.

I have lots of errands to run but I'm going to postpone them to another day instead of driving all over NoVa this weekend. We need more time for melting.

Yeah, thanks. We're heading to Colorado on Saturday for a week of skiing. I'd love to send them some of our snow!!! Chalking this up to one of life's little ironies.

Pfunk...I vote for wine, too! 2.5 hours of shovelling is plenty of exercise! We stopped by the LBS to say "hey." It was a quiet place there.

I ended up doing over an hour on the trainer - some intense hills. Why? Because my kids are driving me crazy. They are both mad at me and the dog (female) isn't happy with the snow so there's a lot of tense estogen in this teeny, tiny condo! Next time you drive by, 7, can you pick them up? Based on what I saw, Noah has plenty of space for 2 skinny, scrawny girls.

I stopped by the shop the other day - after I sent that smart arse e-mail about them being closed on Sunday. The entire gang was in the back and they were thrilled that someone was coming in the shop - until they saw that it was me . Pepper jumped up and said, "We only opened the shop for Pfunk (both first and last names) and you don't even have the decency to bring your Madone in with you?!" It was noon and I was the first person to walk in the door.
