a snow post...one of so many...

Did I ever mention how much I hate snow??? Well just in case you did not read the million snow complaints I have already posted, now you know!

We just came in from shovelling the snow in our driveway and sidewalks....The kids helped of course, they each have a small shovel and they are adorable "helping"...ok it is more like I shovel and push the snow into the snow bank, and they put the snow from the snow bank on the sidewalk...but it is ok, their shovels are small, so the damage is minimal!

Seriously what is up with the snow, why does it love me so much! I wish it would stop following me!

On a happy note, we are finally home and settled down! All our stuff has been unpacked! My back is super sore!! I have been so busy for the past two weeks; I just realized that I have let myself go! My skin is dry because I keep on forgetting to put moisturizer on, my hair needs colouring and hair everywhere needs to be waxed, shave and plucked, my nails are all ugly and undone! It is a good thing hubby is away! Well it has all been taken care of now!

So yes we are finally home now, it took so much time and effort to get our house ready! Hubby kept on telling me not to spend too much and I kept on ahaing and oking him...he is going to have a heart attack when he sees the visa statements...hahaha...

There are so many things you take for granted, and TV is one of them...we have been TV less for two days now and we are missing it...We always have the TV on for background noise...none of us can stand the quietness. Our TV was at my parents' house, but it did not fit in my car....so I am waiting for my brothers to bring it...if it was not for the snow I would be watching TV as I type this instead of this eerie quietness. The cable guy will be here tomorrow, but there is no TV! O well he can hook up the internet and the phone...and we will do the cable later. Thank god for my laptop! We are watching DVD's on the laptop here and there during the kids' quite time.

ps. this is depressing....all of our hard work is not covered with few inches on snow! I hate u snow!

I can't imagine having a TV at my home! We've been TV less since we got married and I don't think I can stand it's background noise, not anymore!
Hope the snow goes away and yr husband arrives safe :)

Sam, please don't get me started on the snow, it has not stopped snowing since mid January it feels, Gosh I am just tired of it. Makes my trip to work just miserable.

I HATE SNOW, well I hate having to get out of the house when it snows :( .

And wow Nido, no TV, that is just amazing, bravo wallah. I wish we didn’t have 3 TV’s in our house, yes THREE. One on every floor and honestly I hate the TV but I love it at the same time, it’s like a love hate relationship.
