Afternoon, Lady and Gents. Got up at the asscrack of dawn to re-plow the driveway and road so the Pullet could get to work. Figured while I was at it, I'd go ahead and plow everybody that I plowed yesterday 'cause we got another 4" or so plus the drifts. Got the local neighbors done, headed over to the old hood to do my favorite neighbor that's got health problems, and noticed I'd missed one yesterday. Got it slammed, went over to my childhood friend's place to do his (a really long U shaped driveway), and his kid (34) is out there with a shovel. Kid screwed his back up in an accident when he was in his late teens. He sure was happy to let me take over.

Got home, put my jammies back on, and looked out the window and saw a neighbor that I'd never plowed before shoveling around his vehicles. Shoot. Pull the pants back on, fire up the Jeep, and pull in his driveway. I cocked my head in a "need help" position, and he smiled and beckoned me to pull up. Told him to hop in and show me where to go. Only took five minutes tops. It would have taken him hours.

Went back home, climbed into my jammies again, and my phone goes off. It's the wife of an old drinking buddy that I hadn't seen in two years. She asks me how much I'd charge to plow 'em out, 'cause they were snowbound. Their driveway is a snakey mess about a third of a mile long. He'd been through multiple surgeries in the last year (heart, gallbladder, two hernias, and he'd just fallen and busted a rib). Shoot. Put my clothes back on and out the door I go.

Had to do his driveway in 4 wheel low. Man, was that thing plugged. No way he'd have gotten out. He offered cash. I refused. Made me feel good that in a pinch, he knew he could count on me.

Get back home (again), go to jack the feet back up on the plow, squat down, fall on my fanny, but luckily, a aluminum siding nail sticking out of the plywood siding stopped my head from hitting the wood. Ouch.

Jammies back on and talking to my cyber friends. What a day.
 
Snowflakes still flying... (no I didn't plow through that demonstration in my 4x4.....but wanted to :) )

Pulled a 2010 yfz 450r motor out and made ready to ship off for a rebuild this morn. Locked up pushrod on crank. Now to sit back and keep out of Blondie's way. Don't want to get stuck doing honey do's...

Just a warm thank you is all I'm looking for, but I've got one that insists on spoiling me at Christmas with goodies and this year, a $100 gas gift card. She's also the sneeky rat that called up to the local auto repair shop and paid for my front brake line replacement last year. Love that gal. Her leaves disappear every fall, and anything I can do to help her gets done. Couldn't ask for a sweeter neighbor.

Sounds to me you are snaking all the lonely women in the neighbor while their husbands are out at the Gin Mill
