Snow Day

Not like I missed work or anything but I feel like I had a snow day anyway:)

Two hours this morning with one of the neighbour's sons doing our driveway & two neighbourhood driveways.

Another 90 minutes this afternoon with 4 neighbours cleaning up our driveways & the road in front of our houses.

The rest of the time watching Lord of the Rings - nice day all things considered:)

I was supposed to go work tomorrow for a pot luck lunch but will not be able to make it. Marion's ankle is still really sore & she is pretty much trapped in her upstairs office with her leg elevated and iced. The Tylenol 3's really help thought :)

For those of you who don't know - Marion took a tumble at church on Sunday (going over the edge of a little ramp heading into the front foyer) resulting in a badly sprained ankle. We feel lucky though two nurses who treated her at church really thought it could be broken.

So I have been on call since Sunday fetching drinks, food & ice when required. We have remote door bell thing so that when Marion wants something she can ring the door bell upstairs then I can check messenger on my computer to see what she requires.

I think I've lost 10 lbs running up & downstairs this week :)
