Superwoman of the Snow (part 3)

Oddly enough not long after my second post last night my dad called to see how my shoveling had gone. I immediately burst into tears and told him all about my frustrations, to which I got his infamous suck it up pep-talk. Now, usually when my dad goes into his football coach mode it upsets me even more, but this time it was exactly what I needed. This morning I marched back outside, shovel in hand and quickly reclaimed the path I had made the day before. Then this evening Soon To Be Mr. Ex showed me how to use the snowblower and get this… I did the rest of the driveway and all of the sidewalk (which is a big deal since we live on a large corner lot) and I actually thought it was super fun! The small town girl in me prevailed and I truly do feel like Superwoman. After all, if I (queen of girly girls) can shovel and use the snowblower, I can do anything. Bring it on world!!!

  1. wow nicole!! im soo proud of you!!
    you can do anything the world throws at you!

    but one thing that caught my attetion is that Soon to be Mr. Ex showed you how to run the snow blower... not realizing that this is already the third time you have done it he should have thanked you and done it himself giving the superwoman you are a little break

  6. I had to laugh after reading your blogs about the snow! It made me think of you getting stuck in your driveway when we were in high school and didn't you back into Holly's ditch in the middle of winter???? :) Oh, by the way this is Lisa. I'm not sure how I make it say my name on here.
