It is winter here...as of today! Ii am amazed at the thick wet flakes that fall fast to the ground. How beautful and bright it was when we awoke to the sight... and what a gorgeous clean world it appears right now. What is unfortunate is the work that the heavy snow produces. Well... for Randy today.I was fortunate to be deligated the traditional role of making breakfast, while my dear man decided that he would take his traditional role today as well, and make a path to the shed, which held the shovel, and then shovel off our deck and driveway.
I definately got the better end of the stick with that one.
As Randy said, "we wouldn't be so bitter about the arrival of winter if it would just break us in easier.. but it never does that... it's hard and fast, and break your back heavy.... the first fall of snow... and "ha ha to you!" attitude, break the spirit of those who blindly responded to the beauty of the seasons change with a smile. All Enjoyment is lost once the reality sets in!
hmmmm. i think I can still love winter... but I think the princess factor exists here as well...
This year i believe it might be wise to buy a second shovel...
2x the speed,
1/2 the back break...
and an activity we can do together.

Love it!~ My thoughts exactly. Dare I sign this comment? I will be brave - since I am the shoveller in my home.
ok - there's something fishy going on here. I was brave enough to sign my name - how come you changed it?
You're lucky your husband shovels! I got the privilege of shovelling us out...o.k. I didn't have to, but then it would never get done!! My boys helped me with the sidewalk...someday, I will have very good shovellers, it will just take a couple more years! Looking forward to that!
sorry mum... just must have been a computer mix up... you are very brave... and we acknowledge your post... :)

well, as the good book says..
train a child in the way he should go and he will never depart from it...
how about that... scripture applies to snow shovelling!
what a fun use of the Word!
