Snow Removal 103 – Don’t Be a Martyr
I know I said I was going to do all of my own snow removal this winter, but today I realized that I simply can’t do it when we get 12 inches of heavy, wet snow.
Somehow, I was able to carve a small and pathetic rectangle in the middle of my driveway with my snowblower, but when I got to the famous City Plow dump, I was stopped dead in my tracks. There was simply no way I was going to get through that. I also didn’t have any low-dose aspirin on hand. Having a heart attack would really ruin the snow day for the kids.
I called Jeff, my snow removal resource from last winter and asked him to please help me. His business is raging, and he couldn’t promise when he’d get here, but said he could do it. I thanked him heartily.
A sight for sore eyes.
Ahhh – I heard a noise in the driveway and whoomp – there he was! Hallelujah!
Yes, this cuts into my budget, but I think it is better than winding up in traction, don’t you?
No shame. No shame at all! All that snow looks miserable!
