Holy Snow Bat Girl

Church sign in Chicago : Who ever is praying for snow, Please Stop! Damn straight. Actually the snow isn't bothering me. I wish I had more milk in the house but it is what it is. (I ran to the gas station while writing this. I now have milk and coffee creamer) We will survive just fine. We are a hardy bunch and as long as the electric stays on we are good as gold. School has been cancelled for Monday so the kids are happy. I don't have to work on Monday so I am happy and I am hoping the hubby has the day off too.

In the past week I have shoveled more snow than I remember shoveling in the past 5 years. My drive way isn't short.

It is probably 60 feet long and at most points wide enough for two cars. It took 3 shovels and 4 people to get my husbands truck out. Yeah loads of fun. At least this year he parked in my driveway, unlike years past where we would shovel on driveway then the other and his is bigger than mine. 

Shoveling snow is no easy task, I was sweating and grunting. My arms legs and back were screaming and I was smiling. I haven't been able to get to the gym because the roads are just God awful horrible. So I am getting my exercise in, in the drive way. I am trying to put picks on here but damn it if this crappy ass computer wont work with my phone. But any who. I found out how awesome moisture wicking shirts are. My coat was drenched, my pants, my shoes, everything. Everything except my shirt. It was nice and dry and comfy. I know I will be out there shoveling again later, kind of excited. More exercise. I don't feel so bad missing the gym.

 

I put the pictures up and now I cant get this dumb thing to work right. I am about to throw this computer into the snow, so I think I am going to go. 

I hope everyone is safe and warm in this weather. It is a widow maker kind of snow so please if you aren't feeling well or you are older, ask someone to do it for you. I don't want to go to weather related funerals.

Time for prayer.

Dear God, Thank You for today. Thank You for my family, I am so very blessed to have them. Thank You for the snow, although people are grumbling I am glad that we have this. Thank You for the strength to shovel my own drive and take care of my family. Please watch out for all those who can not be safe at home with their families. Help to comfort and shelter those who are homeless and hungry and need a place to stay. In your name we pray. Amen
