i've been stuck here since thursday night. all becuase my neighbor bill has all of a sudden decided that while he can plow everything else on the planet free of snow, our driveway is too much. nevermind the fact that he plows it when we don't want him too. but will he plow it so i can free my car. no, he goes into evil bill mood and leaves me stuck.

It sounds like he's mad at you.  Perhaps if you make him a batch of cookies, he'll be more cooperative.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

in other news, i just got back from a recon of the driveway...

knee deep snow, thick and nasty snow for about 50 ft. (ok this is really rough guessing since i'm horrid at guesstmating distance) which continues around the curve and down to the fork. then the rest is cut by the neighbors tire treads from his exterra, which is just a smidge too wide for my kia and the middle is just an inche or two too high.

if i could manage to get the car to the tire treads, i would probably be able to pull a crazy dumb driving stunt and get out tomorrow if the weather coperated. however, the latest blast is starting as we speak. and i still wouldn't be able to get kia from parked spot to tire treads.  =(

also walked a bit with bill, and he is adimate. the snow is to deep and too heavy and he won't do it. *sigh*

Dug my truck out earlier.  Snow in the bed to the bedrails, and packed into the passenger side tires.  Widened the driveway.  Cleared the back deck off last night.  I HATE SNOW.

The National Weather Service has asked me to send you the storm that dumped 12+ inches here.

Enjoy !!

Jamis there is more on its way.  Its passed through here (Cincinnati) now we are getting 20-30 mph winds, with more snow falling through out the night.

Yeah, two competeing lows are swinging through.  Once they go offshore they are forcast to combine and become a nor'easter, which is what craps snow on this region, like the storm before christmas (16"), and the storm last weekend (23").  Forcast is for 7-14"...  :facepalm:

dumped 11" in my yard.

I named the baby glacier in my front yard, Norm. He's taller than me now and I'm 5'11"

I'm trying to come up with a name for the baby glacier in my side yard.

That depends which side of Norm you are.

The unnamed glacier is North of Norm.
