Thinking Out Loud

You really are happy that you only have a 20 year old 3HP snow blower that was given to you.  Because if you didn't have it then you'd be shoveling all that snow.

You really are happy that you have sidewalks that must have the snow removed via city ordinance.  Because if you didn't then the kids wouldn't have anywhere to ride their bikes or walk safely.

You really are happy that the radio stations keep playing the song "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" over and over and over.  Because if they didn't then you'd have to listen to "You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch!" played over and over and over.

(Just trying to be a little bit Pollyannaish on our extremely snowy day.  Going to go out to rid the driveway and sidewalks for the second time - even though the snow isn't even close to stopping.  Because if I don't then it will take me even longer when I get up at 1am to do it so that the hubby can go out into the unplowed streets to deliver the newspaper to a bunch of people who don't seem to care that we have the snowstorm of the decade they just need their newspaper delivered by 6:30 am on a Sunday morning.)
