Back when I was on the road before 6:30 AM, I used to hire someone to plow my driveway. But now that I'm mostly working at home, I figure I can shovel it myself. It's long, but it's exercise, it gets me outside and I generally don't have to be anyplace in a hurry. I'm certainly not going to starve.
About a month ago, though, after it snowed over a foot during the course of a day, my heart quailed when I got up the next morning to see the stinking winter wonderland outside. I was thinking it would be days before I was mobile again. And then my heart rejoiced; a benevolent plow angel had dug out the top of the driveway where the town plows had worked their evil and taken a swipe along its whole length, so all I had to do was some general tidying.
Blessings on thee, kind sir or madam!
