12/365 January 12, 2009 "Broken Bits"

So it is Monday. The Monday after the week I have been sick, my first day back to work, Jacob's first day of school swim lessons and an all around busy day.

So what do we get? Why a snowstorm of course! Not a very big one - only 10 cms, but still snow is snow and snow on the roads means treacherous driving. But no fear of shoveling because James has a brand-spanking-new-never-used snow blower that I got him for Christmas! He has been coveting one for years and last year there was so much shoveling that he near broke his back so this year we were prepared and ready. Yes sirree...a snow blower makes all the difference.

But what's this?
Oh THAT?? Well that is the gear shift of the brand-spanking-new-never-used snow blower. The parts that FELL OFF during its inaugural blowing of the snow.

*insert picture of my head exploding here*

I called Sears ready to make heads roll let me tell you - I was livid. Luckily for them they were very contrite and are coming in tomorrow to fix the damn thing. They better do a good job too because we are calling for 35 cms on Wednesday. If my husband has no snow blower for that I think I may go on the warpath.
