More Snow and No Snow Blower


Yep, I have no snow blower, a 50 foot driveway and a the snow is still coming down. Did I mention that I just paid to have my snow blower repaired last week and paid $100 for it?? So I shoveled. Luckily it was not heavy snow, just a lot of it. But it kept blowing and fogging up my glasses. So I took them off. Better to see things in a blur than to not see at all. And, as I look outside, the snow is coming down more with bigger flakes.

My dad is probably going home from the hospital on Monday. They wanted to keep him a little longer because of his age (92). He had a blood infection and a urinary infection. I had never heard of a blood infection. But then, I didn't talk to the doctor, just my brother and I am not sure if he got it right. My mom seems not to know anything is wrong but she is in a state that she isn't aware of a lot these days.

I am starting to feel my age. I have arthritis and tendinitis in my are and leg. (The attempts to start the snow blower didn't help that.) I should exercise more but never seem to have the time. And when I do get time, I just want to catch up on my sleep. I am getting old and set in my ways. It really kind of sucks getting old but I suppose I prefer it to the alternative.

  1. hello and good times, Truman.

    best wishes on your new blogging career. it takes some time investment, but after a while when your following grows its a lot of fun. i been at it for bout 4yrs now, and made some very good friends in far away lands (like minnesota).

    i tend to write commentary, so it brings folks around to engage in the discussion. that is what i'm all about.
