A friend from far, far away (so far that it's the middle of summer right now where she lives) wrote to ask me if I was planning to shovel out our driveway after this current snow mess.
Dear friends from near and far, my shoveling days are all over (and I really used to shovel it!) Same with mulching the shrubs, mowing the lawn, raking the leaves, powerwashing the house. All that is done by the great Curley Brothers lawn care firm these days. Mention my name when you call!
As the recipient of two mechanical knees and a spinal surgery that featured cadaver bone to stand me up straight, it would be a daggone shame to perform backbreaking manual labor and risk the stability of those vital body parts, so I don't.
I visited my snowbusting equipment the other day when I found myself hanging around the garage. Do you know what's the nicest thing you can see on a snow shovel?
Dust!
