Day 2 of the winter blizzard. Jim is outside attempting to move snow. It is so bitterly cold. He needs to get a loader bucket for the tractor and a tractor with a cab. Maybe by next winter and that will probably be a winter when we don't have much snow. As you can see from the pictures the drifts in front of our house are as high as the front deck. In the bottom picture, the second drift, our mailbox is in there somewhere.....Jim stated he'll be lucky to get one of our two drives open today and the garage so we can get out one drive.

Second day without school. I never would have predicted this. One goal I had was to clean the hall closet. Got that done although I can't say we got rid of very many things. Every time I hauled a coat of Jim's out that he hasn't worn in years, it was like a walk down memory lane. "I love that jacket, I bought that when we were in San Francisco" which was over 15 years ago. Some of those jackets he had even forgot he had, but he made me put almost all back in the closet, with a small pile for son John to go through and a very small pile that might make it to the camper. I think I actually have about 5 between us that I can give to Goodwill. Haven't decided what I'll do with the rest of day 2. Hopefully I'll be back in school for one day and then another weekend.
