It was snowing when I got up at 6AM and we had about 1” when I went out just after 7AM to do chores. I swept all the steps because the solar company was supposed to fix the system. But they called and cancelled 20 minutes before they were supposed to arrive. Of course. This makes the 3rd time. They rescheduled for Friday the 19th. We’ll see…
That did not make a good start to my day. Next I tried to get a hold of someone at the health insurance company. I was told there was NO ONE at their desks. I could leave another message.
So I called the agency for state help for getting a helper. I was told that my worker needed information LAST WEDNESDAY and she never contacted me. I could have the info faxed in. So I went about trying to fax the info and that was a whole rigmarole and I’m not sure it was even done. A whole week wasted. It’s been 6 weeks since I had help and now they are seeming to be actively obstructive.
Well, that just set me off and I sat and sulked did nothing except read for most of the day. I finally got the laundry put away and the kitchen cleaned up.
My brother got home at 4PM and I went out to sweep again and he plowed. We had between 4” - 5” of fluffy snow. Then we made the shepherd’s pie again. My son had brought home a huge ham from work so we got that cut up into useable pieces and frozen.
I got the masonry heater roaring and the wood stove going and went to bed finally. I think the snow had finally stopped by then. Glad that day was over!
