Today was the first big snowstorm of the season. I like snow, just not driving in it. Luckily, the freeways were cleared and I could get my mom to the airport safely and with plenty of time to spare.

When I got home, the driveway was covered with several inches of snow. I decided to shovel the driveway, which is something I hardly ever do. I did this for two reasons: 1) the longer the snow stays on the driveway, the more compact it becomes, and therefore, the harder it is to remove; and 2) I knew it would make James happy and he wouldn’t have to do much or anything at all when he came home.

I’ll tell you, I definitely worked up a bit of a sweat from the exertion. I’m sure it’s gotten harder since we’ve added the addition onto our driveway. There was a lot of snow to clear! Here’s the proof:

    I saw you out there yesterday. You inspired me and I did mine this morning. Great work…and that is a big driveway!
