Thank goodness for neighbors who work cheap

The snow was so bad here that we actually broke two snow shovels trying to clear it. And the snowblower is out of commission. So this morning was looking pretty bad.

Then, a guy from the neighborhood came by with a snowblower and offered to clear our snow for $10. My wife said "no, let me give you $15." Not used to that kind of "bartering," he quickly agreed. Phew!

That guy got a lot of other business on our street, too. Good for him! What a lifesaver!

1. OMG ... and I've just been GIVING it away!!!11!

Cleared 5 drives today, and it never occurred to me to charge. Oh, well, maybe a sixpack or a fifth will show up on my doorstep.

Now I'm settling down to an Advil and a warm cuppa.

:hi:

2. I know what you mean

When my snowblower is running, I usually help out other on my block for free. But this guy looked like he needed the cash.

3. Just came in from shoveling off the driveway.

I had to rest TWICE.

The car was covered in snow up to the door handles!

Would have been a snow-day for sure, if the kids hadn't
already had the day off for Preznit's Day.
