Bring it on, Juno. Or not. It's not you, it's me—I'm just not very fond of your cold, wintry self...I'm not that kind of girl. I prefer to dig my toes in some warm sand in a remote beach somewhere in the world. Not be half buried under your 3', white curtain of cold fluff *shivers*! But, I do live in New England, so let's just agree to disagree.
Well, after finding out that the above infamous storm was about to show up, unwelcomed, I started preparing in advanced:
Grocery shopping ✔️
Driveway salt ✔️
Spanking new snowblower working properly ... oh wait—hubby's car, which hasn't used in forever and which is inside the garage, has run out of battery and is blocking the snowblower. Great! Because the car was facing forward in the garage we couldn't jump it, so off to buy a new battery we went, so that we could get to the snowblower.
We finally got back, install the new battery and take out the car and the snowblower. Now to continue my list...
Snowblower working properly ... "wait, check to make sure it's working properly" I ask my husband. 'Just to check', because what can be wrong with it, right? I mean, it is a brand new machine that we've only used once, last year.
"Broom brrrr bluh blupp bluppp"—the thing turns on and off in the same second and refuses to turn back on!—this CANNOT be happening! That Bombogetton...I mean, Bombogenesis...storm is coming! This thing better work! I yell at my husband to turn the darn thing on. NOW (as if he had something to do with the machine not working). I was so frustrated that I kick the massive apparatus, which didn't even move one bit, and proceed to go upstairs almost in tears. Dramatic, I know. Welcome to my poor husband's life.
After what seemed like forever, hubby was able to figure out the machine and get it going—I just love that man! And life is good again.
Now you can bring it on, Juno. See you in a few hours ;).
**Note to self: don't ever throw away the instruction packet to a new toy. It's called the instruction packet for a reason.**
Hum, this actually reminds me of an organizational project I have in the back burner.
