Snow Plow


One winter morning a husband and wife were listening to the radio during breakfast. They heard the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get through."


So the good wife went out and moved her car... A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer said, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get through."


The good wife went out and moved her car again. The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says,"We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park..." Then the power went out.


The good wife was very upset, and with a worried look on her face she said, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snowplows can get through?"


With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are married to blondes exhibit, the husband replied, "Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time."

I haven't looked outside (I have but its dark so I can't see much) but the temp is 25 degrees and hubby just informed me; "its slick out there." Meaning, slippery and to be careful. Eventually I shall don snowshoes and trek around the yard and if I feel really ambitious, I can do a loop or two around the field across the street. My other plans including running the vacuum, that's always fun and who knows I may even dust. Then, if the roads are good,well, Wally World just ain't the same if I let too many days pass without a visit --ya, I do have a few things I need to pick up but nothing that I cannot live without.


So all of you, keep smiling and remember, "you're above ground so stop whining!"
