We had a nice thaw last week, which gave the kids and I a chance to start chiseling away at some of the ice and snow that plagues our driveway. Over the course of two days I’d say we got maybe half the driveway done, then our area got pelted with a flash freeze and freezing rain and ice pellets. D’oh!
The next day the kids and I went outside for something, and were met by a sheet of ice on the driveway with a fresh dusting of snow on top. My son was displeased. He flailed his arms up and down and shouted “WHAT??? THIS STUPID SNOW! WE JUST CLEANED THIS ALL UP YESTERDAY!!!”. Then he stomped off into the house.
I guess one of the life lessons I’ve neglected to teach him is that Mother Nature can be a real bitch.
