I can't believe it!

We made list of things we had to do in Springfield and then we bundled up to go on our shopping trip. We divided everything up so we only had to shop at two stores. Well, we didn't get out of town. Somehow a crack started up the middle of our windshield and with the streets being all snow packed and uneven it started cracking more. We had to turn around and come home. We tried shoveling out the drive from the garage but it took so long because we kept having to stop and rest. I guess 67 year olds don't have the stamina of younger people. We finally stopped, got in the truck and went to Petersburg. We stopped at a hardware store and got a flourescent bulb to put above our kitchen sink as the other one quit working. Then we went to the grocery store to get a few things. One was baking powder because I've been making biscuits instead of using bread. Guess what? They were out! We finally got home and our little store had baking powder. We put the bulb in the light, it doesn't work. We went out and worked more and got the drive shoveled out, but our garage door broke. It comes to about two foot from the floor and stops. It has to stay that way til morning because I can't see what is wrong to fix it. I was still stiff from shoveling yesterday so hope I can move to get up tomorrow. I've got to go do supper dishes and then I think I will head to bed. Wannabe

Yep, yesterday was shucks, today will be peanuts. A philosophy instructor once said, "Life is just one damned thing after another." And you proved that. Hope things are better today.

I really hope you're not too stiff and sore after all that shovelling Wanna. Let's hope today is MUCH better for you both.

Oh gosh Wannabe, sure hope things improve for you today. I know I could not shovel much snow without resting.

Things are looking up this morning. It is cold but no snow. We have to drive our van to a glass shop in Springfield on Wednesday. They will put in a new window and we can pick it up Thursday. We are both a little stiff andsore but doing okay. Wannabe
