Gift
2 – Another Snow Storm
Living in
Wisconsin has a lot of advantages……snow is not one of them.
Don’t get
me wrong I like snow as long as I can stay inside and sip hot chocolate and
look out the front window. However I do not
want to go out in it and I certainly do not want to shovel it.
Early on in our marriage I made it clear I
hate shoveling. Luckily for me we had
three boys that would always help their dad.
Unfortunately those wonderful boys have moved out and it’s just the two
of us. I gently remind my husband if he
really wants me to shovel and cut the grass then I think we should move to a
condo. I would love to move to a condo
with underground parking.
Today we
got about 4 inches of snow and it was a heavy snow. I knew my husband had a busy night so I
tried my best to shovel the driveway as my gift for him.
To be honest with my bad back I only made it through half the driveway. I took two breaks but I just couldn’t
finish. I was bummed about that. However when my husband came home he seemed
pleasantly surprised at my efforts. It
only took him a few minutes to finish up and then we had a few minutes to have
dinner together before he had to leave again.
