Okay, I am sooooo over winter, and off street parking, and GR roads, and broken heaters. I woke up to the sound of our furnace running at 5:30am. It had been running for a while, but my room was freezing. I drifted in and out of sleep for the next few hours. At 7:45a I got up to turn down the thermostat. I figured it's just too cold outside for our house to get warmed up and we shouldn't have let it run all night (Sidenote: we got our first bill. Oh my! $$$). So without turning on a light I turn the thermostate lower and crawled back up in my bed. About 8:19 I figured I should get up and leave some time shovel my car out. I pulled up the blinds and shared in SHOCK! All the work LaKeri and I did yesterday was already filled in. Not to mention it was freezing in our house and there's air coming in through our front door.

I stood and stared until I resolved myself that I was just going to have to shovel some more. About that time LaKeri came out and told me, my car had been plowed in. We also deduced that the heater was not working. I bundled up and almost cried when I saw the condition of my car. 45mins to shovel it out. I kept pushing on, knowing that if I could just get it in the driveway, maybe I wouldn't have to worry about this tomorrow morning. WRONG!

I should have learned from yesterday. My car cannot go in the driveway, because of a slight incline. Another hour and 25min, plus a 25lbs of kitty litter. When my car had made it as far as half way in the drive and half way in the road, I saw a Hummer turn the cornner. I thought to myself, "There is no way that idiot's getting around my car." It pulls to the side and it's Mike, our landlord. He helps LaKeri and I get the car unstuck and I park it in the plowed out lot of the landremat down the block.

Mike brought us some space heaters and plans to get the heating guy out tonight, but maybe not until tomorrow. Meanwhile I'm bundled in my coat and scarf.

I'm wrecked!
