It doesn't show sign of stopping.....

So far today, 5 inches and counting. Thankfully we have (up to this point) avoided the ice and freezing rain in the forecast. I hope it stays that way. Yes, I DID snowblow on Saturday. Lydia played in the snow, Marcus rode on my back in a backpack carrier. If only I could've taken a picture of myself.........I am woman. Hear me roar!

Now Lydia is sick and after spending the past day and a half pent up in the house with a sick kid and her brother, blowing snow (again) was sounding like a treat and a good excuse for some fresh air. So, I headed out, did 6 passes and promptly ran out of gas. At least that's what I assume happened because the blower stopped dead at the bottom of the driveway. Yes, our driveway is at a slope, and yes I dragged it back up to the garage slipping and sliding all the way.

After filling 'er back up, she refused to start. This means one of two things: (a). She's flooded or (b). I put in the wrong fuel. Let's hope for letter "a"... as the alternative may not be such a happy moment for the husband. At least I got my fix of fresh air and cleared a path wide enough to get to the road... the other 2/3 will have to wait until after kiddie-bedtime (assuming I haven't destroyed Brandon's newest toy. Ahem.)
