Have I mentioned how much I hate winter?
My son took my car to work yesterday, because it’s slightly better in the snow than his car. It was snowing when he left, and most of the day, though it only accumulated an inch or two. Then it changed to freezing rain. Rain that freezes on contact with the ground because the ground is so frigid. On his way home one of my windshield wipers flew off…of course the drivers side…..so he had to drive home in this horrible weather at 9 last night, without a wiper. We’ll have to go get one this morning before I go to work, which wouldn’t be a big deal except the roads right now are ice-coated. I’ll be lucky to get to work by noon, I think.
Not to mention that he went to put windshield washer fluid in my car before he left and the fitting that holds the bar that you use to hold up the hood, snapped, just broke off when he put the bar up. It was plastic, and riveted onto the car….and I think it was just too cold. It was probably 5° or 10° in my garage. I have no idea how it will be replaced, since it was riveted on, not screwed on.
Only 34 days til spring…..

I am right there with you… I can enjoy the sunny winter days, but even those I can do without, after about a week of winter…lol. I often think about moving to a warmer climate… 😊 ⛄
I laughed when I read about the windshield wiper…not out of evilness but it’s exactly something that would happen to me! Murphy’s Law.
The hood on my sons’ car flew up one time and got stuck. He had to drive all the way home, looking through that little crack between the hood and the dashboard. Our sons are resilient, though. I’m sure it bothered US way more than it bothered them. LOL
Well it bothered him, for sure! It was ice storming, crazy. But he made it safe and sound. He came home, said “I’m stealing your wine Mom. I am never doing that again! “. Lol. He did save me though, from having it happen to me tonight while it’s pouring rain.
That made me laugh out loud! “I’m stealing your wine Mom!” I don’t even know your son but he sounds like a treasure. 🙂
Hey Deb! I’ve nominated you for the One Lovely Blog award!! Since you are so wonderful with your blogging. I would be happy if you would consider making a post about it.. I know you have recently been nominated (as was I, hee hee), but if you wanted to, just mention a few new blogger’s names etc, to help them, to get an audence, perhaps (that is what I thought I could do, when getting the nomination again). No pressure, if you have too much going on I’ll understand. Then, just wear it as a badge of honor, in your heart 🙂 Hugs / Survived
