Superwoman of the Snow

We had a fairly significant snow storm yesterday with blowing snow and blizzard like conditions today. As a result Soon To Be Mr. Ex did not come home last night and he called earlier today to say he would not be home tonight either. I’ll be honest, I was happy that he wasn’t coming home, but it also meant that for the first time in my nearly 30 years of life, I was going to have to do snow removal. I briefly considered calling someone whom I could pay to come over and do it, but then I decided that I was going to do it myself, if nothing else simply to prove that I could. Plus, we have a snowblower and I’m a highly educated woman, so how hard could it be? Well sadly, even a masters degree cannot help you figure out how to run a snowblower (I’m a bit embarrassed that I just admitted that... if anyone can come over and show me how to use it, I would REALLY appreciate it!!) so I had to use the trusty shovel instead. I called my dad and got some advice and then set out on my “adventure”. Despite the fact that I live on a corner lot, my only goal was to do the driveway and I am proud to say that I DID IT!! Granted, the snow is still blowing around like crazy so I am going to have to go do it again later, and it certainly is not perfect but the point is that I did it… I feel like some sort of Superwoman of the Snow (hopefully my hard work does allow me to actually get out of the driveway in the morning)!
