Everyday Systems

I am writing this with my last drops of energy!!!
I just shoveled snow for four hours!!!!!!!!!!!

We live in a cottage and the driveway goes from the street all the way beyond the main house to the back cottage.. You could easily park four or maybe even five cars in this driveway...
Wow....
Wow....
Wow.....
I just can't remember any time I've ever shoveled snow for this long...

It was about two and a half feet deep, except in the snowdrift areas which were closer to three...

My arms are totally exhausted!!!!
LOL...

But it was a great challenge and I had fun!

Okay.. now that that's out of my system, I'll be fine when Spring comes!!!!
LOL..
Peace and Love,
Deb

I have been watching that blizzard on the Weather channel. Yuck, says the Minnesotan!

Does 4 hours of snow shovelling count for 14 min./day x 5 days of Shovelglove exercise? Can you rest for the remainder of the week???? I'd say you earned it!!

Thanks Jan!!!!
Yeah.. That's exactly what it was like... A whole weeks worth of exercise in one day!!!
LOL...

Hope you are having a great day!
Love,
Deb

Deb,

I'm impressed.

I was going to write about having to dig a hole in which to bury my daughter's recently deceased gerbil and how SG helped me improve my ability to chop through Oklahoma's dry clay soil but what would be the point now?

Good going--you totally trumped me!

thanks,
David

Sorry about your daughters pet David...
But that was pretty funny!
LOL...

I am having difficulty moving my fingers to type right now!
LOL...

Thanks for your compliment!

Sorry to hear about your daughter's gerbil, David. We are gerbil keepers, too. They are real cuties to watch!

Deb and Jan,

Thanks for the sentiments! Shandra lived a long and full gerbil life and her death from old age has been a good lesson for my daughter. She's now planted outside my daughter's bedroom window as a little protective presence.

thanks,
David

We had a mere foot or so in cambridge, nothing really. Light and fluffy, it was barely a warmup. I envy you!

Well, you could always donate your services to little old ladies who can't shovel their driveways!
Do about four driveways and then we would be even

My shoulders are very happy not to be doing anymore right now..
Fortunately, I used good body mechanics and haven't really hurt anything!

Have a great day Rein!
Love,
Deb

I just finished shovelling yet more snow..
It felt great!

Strangely, I found myself thinking of Shovelgloving when I was shoveling the real stuff!!! LOL...

For more "exciting" details and musings on this, see my last post on my checkin thread...
LOL...

Peace,
Deb

We had 14 inches of very wet snow in Maryland... I used the plow on the little tractor... :0)

Hi TK!
Happy ploughing!

Love,
Deb

It was the lazy man's approach, but my driveway is 90 feet long and circular. I didn't have all day. :-)
