Merry belated Christmas to all here at Chiefs Crowd! I hope each of you and your loved ones had a wonderful Christmas, and that Santa brought you what you asked him for! HO! HO! HO!
Another Christmas bites the dust, in the blink of an eye it seemed, and this one was sure different for me. Whatcha wanna bet I can blink 3 times and it will be Christmas 2010? The time sure passes by quickly!
We had a snow storm that began here early last week, that created much havoc with 40-50 mph winds blowing snow causing high drifting, blocking many roads, trapping many in their homes...of which I was one of!
Living in the rural country can be beautiful, especially when it snows, and I often wish for a White Christmas...well, I learned my lesson, and don't think I'll wish for another White Christmas again! hahaha Both snowfalls we've had this month have isolated me from civilization, and can affect my being on line also...due to my using a satellite.
The county cleared my road quickly, but the problem was my long drive and a 6' tall snowdrift behind my garage doors. I couldn't get passed the drift blocking my garage, not even in my 4 wheel drive truck, until yesterday. Each day I shoveled snow from behind the garage, & finally removed enough I could make it through the drift in 4 wheel drive low. I'm FREE! haha
My son & his wife live 4 miles away, but in a different county, and they were trapped until Saturday, so weren't able to be here at my house for Christmas Dinner. It was the first time in my son's 32 yrs we've not spent Christmas together. Of course it was my first Christmas since divorcing also, so that made it different for me too.
Fortunately, my daughter and her family weren't trapped even with living 30 miles away, and were able to make it to my house safely for Christmas, but couldnt' pull far into my drive. I was grateful not to have to spend Christmas alone without family!
They were all here yesterday to watch the Chiefs/Bengals game with me too, which was nice...made up for us not being together Christmas. Would've been nicer if the Chiefs had won, however.
Anyway...I wish each of you a Happy New Year, filled with many blessings! I also wish for NO MORE SNOW in 2009 or the remaining winter in 2010! hahaha
