I guess the good part is that the main roof is %90 blown free of snow... thank god for small favors...all this after working most of the day Saturday and Sunday clearing my own garage.. porch and roof...I turned 60 Sunday.. and this week feel every bit of it..
FYI as of Friday .. Grainger had 50lb boxes of ice melt... I bought 4 more .. bringing this years total to 12... 50 lb. boxes.. the most I have bought in 20 years of maintaining this building. Look them up on line and you can put in your zip code to check availability...
that invitation from my Son to go live in New Orleans is looking better each day... except for the fact that I hate snakes MORE than snow....
