Last Shift!!!!

Tonight is my last shift before vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be off work 20 days!!!! Did I mention I am super EXCITED?!?!?!?!?!

Worst drive EVER!!!

We were "blessed" with another snow storm today. My drive to work was nasty. About 15 cm had fallen by the time I had to head into work. The roads were messy but I made it in. I thought the snow would have stopped and the roads would be better by the time I was to head home. I was very wrong. We got, in total, between 30 and 40 cm of snow depending on what area of the valley you were in. I was almost in an accident (3 times!!) on my way home but I made it through town and up the massive hill. That's when the real fun started. I got stuck trying to get into my subdivision. I was majorly ticked of and floored it in reverse and then floored it in drive. Yes I know this is bad for the car but at the time I really didn't care. I made it to the end of my road, feet away from my drive way when I got super stuck. It involved 30 minutes of shoveling a path for my car and digging the poor little orange monster out of the hole I managed to wedge it in. The car is at the very end of my drive way. The icing on the cake???? I get in the house, and look out the picture window while taking my boots off and what do I see coming in the road??????? Yup you guessed it a PLOW!!!! Not department of highways mind you but one of my neighbours who was making a path for those of us who needed to get in and out.
Stupid Murphy I HATE YOUR LAWS!!!!
