Two posts in 24 hours – unprecedented.
I do have to comment on the weather so I will keep it brief.
It FINALLY SNOWED!!! – record breaking snow – 46 centimetres which I think is like 20 inches to my imperial friends.
Insanity ensues.
I buried my truck to the rims making a break up the driveway – EPIC!!!
Trudged knee deep -lungs burning – thighs like lead – whoa!! – flashback to our first winter – to the house.
Burst through door – FRACK forgot cell phone, groceries and wine in the truck – Son of A!?!?!
My sled – my sled – where is my trusty sled??
Down by the barn – waist deep – trudge, trudge, trudge – good thing I quite smoking or it would surely be a “Shining” “moment.
Back to the road – our kindly neighbour – I’ll haul you out- get this – my Kia – no frigging hook or spot to hook up a chain/strap/rope- screw it – she can stay there.
I saved the wine!!!
Off to feed horses and bock bocks through now waist deep snow- OK not quite but pretty damn close.
All those years my parents said “We used to walk both ways uphill in waist deep snow” Hey I’m using that one!!!
Horses fed- chickens fed.
Fired up Maximus Prime (our tractor) – Hey I can start him- not allowed to drive him though – specially after a glass (or two) of wine.
Hubs won’t be home any time soon SO the burning topic – how am I going to get my truck out to get to work tomorrow.
I have to go – the Big Boss is coming in for business reviews from the Pacific North West – providing he made it out of Chicago – I have to be there.
Meh- worry about that tomorrow morning I guess.
Glass of wine anyone?
