Don't worry....I have no intention of doing any shoveling of snow. The most I ever do if any is a path from the back door to the bus. Other than that, I'm on the lawnmower with a snow blade. This recent snow really left some drifts. I was able to drive right through getting out of my drive in the bus, but when I got home....I backed up, got stuck and when I tried to go forward again...the back end of the bus slid off into the yard. I radioed for the Transportation Director to come pull me out if he wanted me to drive in the afternoon, so he did. The a neighbor came down with his backhoe and cleaned our drive out. If he hadn't Ricky would not have been able to get his truck out of the garage to go to work. Just one reason why I will not be living out here when I'm old. Too much snow and too far to town on bad roads.

Today I went into Mom's and washed all the outlet and switch covers. Also went to Wal Mart to get some paint chips to see if I can get close to the same color. She painted the bedroom ceiling the same as the walls and I don't want to paint the ceilings. I don't know how I'm going to paint anyway until this arm gets better. Then the only thing left to do at Mom's (till spring) is wash out the kitchen cabinets.

I did get the Florida home sold. It will take some time for everything to get done, but we will definitely be able to completely close the estate by the first week of April. Then everything will be done. It will be a relief for sure.

After I got home today....I didn't do much of anything but sit in the recliner and nap. I really need to get off my butt. Just being in at Mom's washing those faceplates I was wore out. It has got to be becauses I just am not active. Drives me nuts getting so tired so fast. Need to get this weight off too. I've really gained since Mom has passed. Too embarrassing to say how much, but it's not healthy!

I'm on Ricky's computer still. I don't ask to borrow it very often, but typing on the iPad is too stressfull. Once I get a post completed I'll hit the wrong button with my finger and lose it all.

Not sure what's on the agenda for tomorrow, I just know I can't be sitting all day. Wish me luck!
