This is my desire:

While this is my reality:

In the middle picture, I did just shovel the sidewalks and most of the driveway. What you can’t really see in the pictures is it’s a virtual blizzard. What is that saying about shoveling snow while it’s still snowing?

I’ve definitely had my smarter moments but I was thinking when I started shoveling. I was thinking of the load of snow I’d have to shovel when it’s done snowing and thinking I’d rather not have to shovel that! You see last week I waited and shoveled 12-18 inches of the white stuff.  It was not a barrel of fun, let me tell you.

I do enjoy shoveling…sometime. I like being outside, while I’d prefer to be outside at the beach, that just isn’t my reality.
