Thank You, Jack!

Here comes the next polar vortex to the middle of nowhere Ohio. Eh, well, it is winter after all.  Sometimes I think these young meteorologists have never seen real snowfall; like the blizzard of '78.  Now that was snow.  And cold.  But today we have fancy terminology like, "polar vortex", as if winter should be a balmy 57 degrees here in Ohio.

I was out shoveling the snow from the driveway and feeling mighty confident when I was sweetly reminded of a phrase that has never been forgotten..."Confidence is so very sexy, don't ya think?" Yes, Jack, you got that right.

Three Cars Wide Driveway - Feeling Confident...and Sexy



I was not about to be shown up by the retired police officer with his fancy snow blower, nor by the grumpy retired pastor with his bright orange parka and shovel.  If they can get their driveways cleared, you better believe I'm going to push that shovel and tote that barge, too.  I cleared it in record time and I have to say enjoyed it, while chuckling and remembering Jack Palance with his one-armed push-ups!  What an inspiration...and so confident.

You know, I really enjoy snowball fights.  But all the neighbors were already tucked inside their homes by the fire with hot cocoa.  Next time...but in lieu of a good snowball fight, I put together this little guy.
