Hello,
Leroy and I went out before breakfast
to start shoveling so he could get out of the garage more easily for going to
work. I do not know the depth of the snow, but we guessed it was more than five
inches, deep enough to be noticeable when shoveling. The wind was blowing
strongly so it mattered where we aimed the snow so it would not fly back in our
faces. Leroy mostly was filling the wheelbarrow so he could haul it to the back
yard as there is not enough room around the alley to stack it.
I was happy to go in when Leroy said
he was hungry. After eating we did tai chi with the Ely Library contingent. We
commented that with this much snow, had we been meeting in person, the session
would have been cancelled. Leroy quit the class early so he could go back out
and start off to work. He was pleased that the plow had gone through the alley.
That was a big help, but required some snow removal just by the garage on his
side.
Later I went out to shovel the
sidewalk, but did not have enough stamina to do it all so I had to go out again
later. I am now pleased to note that the sun has melted the snow off the
sidewalk where it has been shoveled. I did a little more work in the alley, but
will wait until Leroy gets home to finish that. I am not sure why, but I do not
handle that wheelbarrow as skillfully as he does.
Building muscles, determination, and
stamina is the goal with all of this shoveling. Truly a gift of nature to
provide all this splendid opportunity!
Paula
