This morning I was incredibly thankful for two things: new snow boots and my garage.
I’ve spent the last few winters with cold, wet feet – not to mention wet socks and pants – because I didn’t have proper boots for trudging through the snow. A couple weeks ago, in anticipation of the snow to come, I used a TJ Maxx gift card to buy some ugly old lady boots. The kind you’re embarrassed to be seen in except for the fact that you don’t give a shit because at least your feet are warm and dry. It snowed quite a bit yesterday and last night, and our parking lot hadn’t been cleared by the time I left this morning. Thank you ugly old lady boots for protecting my feet against the evil snow.
As I was trekking through the messy wet parking lot this morning, I heard a medley of scrapes and brushes all around me. People attempting to clear their cars enough to drive without killing anyone. Scrape scrape. Brush brush. All I had to do was hit the button on my garage door opener and my car was magically clear of all snow and ice! Thank you garage for protecting my car against the evil snow.
(I should also thank Robin for agreeing to take the larger bedroom with the private bathroom and full shower so that I could have smaller bedroom, the public bathroom with the stall shower, and the sweet mother-effing garage baby!)
Last year was the first year I had a GARAGE. Let me sing sweet joy for the mornings I didnt have to brush and scrape my car off. Cheers.
