Snowblower stopped going forward. He tried fixing it but I just started shoveling. I got most of the driveway and out by the mailbox cleared and then started on the double wide pad in front of the garage. Husband gave up on the snowblower and called for service guy. We finished driveway and then onto library and grocery shopping. Came back- snowblower gone. I guess it couldn't be fixed at home.
I am guessing I have held out as long as possible and we'll need to get some quotes for a new driveway. Too many cracks and bumps. I'm wondering if we could get heat wires installed to melt snow? It's a very long driveway. But our luck- the snow would melt and then freeze to solid ice. It's Maine.
Love that old Japanese jacket up top. I got the image from somewhere. Wished I had one. I would wear it everyday.
We started watching the Super Bowl when the score was 9 and 20 something. Then stayed to watch our favorite quarterback win. I've never really seen the Chargers play that badly or maybe, just maybe- they were outplayed. Seven Rings. It doesn't get much better--oh- I am sure he'll try for 8. We never got to the pizza. Perhaps today? It's already 3:30 and husband is eating a huge bowl of soup. I am going to make a seance cup of coffee and look up a few books on the internet.
I drew an excellent chicken in yesterday's calendar block. Very colorful. Today? Not sure.
We have a long driveway too. It is part asphalt and then a concrete slab to park the car it slopes so very slippery when icy. The trees my father in law planted are too close now and the tree roots are causing the driveway to crack in so many places it is hard to shovel. No snow for us this year just inches. I miss the deep snow, my son and I got snowshoes last year but haven't been able to use them this year.
ReplyDeleteOn your side bar your of blogs you read search Spirt Cloth. Jude as some tutorials on making a jacket like that. Hers are beautiful.
We eat a lot of soups here easy to make and filling. Today is potato corn chowder and naan
bread.
I am attaching a web site of an artist that does daily prompts for quick drawings like your calendar. You might find it fun.

I had a chuckle at your "seance" cup of coffee. I'm going to need one myself. I didn't get to see the game as I was working but a friend was giving me a running commentary in Messenger. I didn't have the heart to tell him I only watch the Superbowl for the commercials. TB should retire now and put himself out to stud like they did Secretariat. Less wear and tear and lots takers, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteWell, the would have to take on his very bitchy wife. But yes, lots of interested women.
ReplyDeleteAnd Beverly I do read Sprit Cloth and do know she has a jacket pattern. It's just the "making" of it. Getting started.
Monday's calendar square is blank. I forgot. Now I have two to fill today- perhaps a long square.
