woke up at about 5:00 as I have been doing. I decided to go back to bed since I didn't have to get up. slept until 8:00. it was kind of nice.

tons of snow every where and still snowing. holy cow!

breakfast

mexican omelettes
banana
coffee
oj
iced tea

E made the omelettes. Eggs, cheese, salsa wrapped in a tortilla. Excellent.

I went out at about 11:00 to try to clear a path to the back door and to clear away some of the snow piled around the heat pump. I went out through the garage because it was the only door we could get open. There must be a 30 in drift in front of the front door. back door is blocked by over 3 ft of snow. The snow right in front of the garage is about 2 ft deep. amazing.

I got everything I needed to do done but then I made the silly mistake of going around the front of the house rather than doubling back on my path. I barely made it. Snow was hip dip in places in the front yard and by that time I was very cold.

lunch

tomato soup
grilled cheese
iced tea

dinner

turkey reuben
chips
coke
iced tea

dessert

bowl of cereal

I tried to watch an Italian movie on DVD. It was supposed to be based on Cosi Fan Tutti. Turned out to be moderately hard core porn. Not a nice surprise. Turned it off after 15 minutes. Too many naked Italians.

Ended up watching The Rocket about Maurice Richard. A Canadian made movie in French. Odd movie. It kept reminding me of other movies. It was rather austere. A little humor would have been a big plus.

Snow stopped around 5:15 pm. We must have gotten 24 in.
