My Struggle with Winter Continues

SnowfallI hadn’t seen my driveway since November. There has been so much ice and snow that the best I could do all winter was try to shovel down to the lowest layer of ice. It’s been bad. More than on cars has been stuck on the island of ice at the bottom of our driveway.

Then it got near 60 degrees farenheit yesterday. I got out my shovels and spent hours chopping at the ice and clearing the driveway off. I was in my shorts and t-shirt. Sweat drenched my shirt as I hacked and scooped and gnawed until…

Concrete! Glorious concrete!!

My driveway had been released from it’s winter chains and could breathe free once more. Free at last! Free at last!! Thank God Almighty it was free at last!

We had an ice storm last night, which covered my driveway in a layer of ice followed by an inch of snow.

ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGHHHHH!!!
