I just finished shovelling snow

18 years ago

----------- 7" of HEAVY , WET Snow. It was like shovelling mud it was so heavy. I'm beat ! We have a driveway , and when you see that plow coming on down the road pushing this MOUNTAIN of snow boulders right toward it ..... I just cringe !!! Of course it just gets deposited in MY driveway !! DH is at work .... he usually does the shovelling , but I'm trying to help because he won't be home till late. I was just about to drop - when my neigbor saved the day . He snowblowed the mountain in front of the driveway Plus our whole driveway . I love that guy !!

LOL ** I'm sore now - I dread tomorrow morning ! **

Glad to hear you got help. Last night's snow was VERY heavy. We have a long driveway with a turn-about that is about 1/2 as big as the driveway - so lots to snow blow.

Plus we're watching/blowing a neighbor's house while out of town. At least son is getting paid for doing theirs!

**sigh** 7" of snow....at the same time!! Lots of work, I know, but it would be GLORIOUS to see (from my favorite rocking chair with a cup of hot cocoa in my hand LOL)! I doubt I've seen that much snow in the past 15 years combined!
