A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall My Snowy Life...........

I'll post a few tonight and the rest tomorrow.


Here's my house.



Here's me walking up to my roof.



Here's me sitting on my roof No ladders needed here. Don't ya just love my big clumsy ski suit.



Now that I'm up there, it's time to shovel out my windows again..............

Here's what my windows all look like from inside.



Time to shovel down and out....after every single storm.

MY !! does your DH even KNOW how wonderful you are???

You are really getting ready to do some real work !!!

It looks like a very nice place.......to visit.
Thanks for sharing pictures.

OMG...it was 75 here today

I had already shovelled off the roof that morning...finally got all the windows shovelled out.



The worst is shovelling down 5 feet and shovelling it out and over.


These were the last for the day...I can now see out again...well, until Wednesday when the next one hits.




They say we got almost 16 feet of snow so far, I well believe it.

I just wrote a post but I guess it is gone. So I will rewrite it. I don't know how you do it Tam. I am sure you can't wait for spring. I feel for ya!!

yup, who'd be crazy enough to live here.

WOWWW!

we have not had a snow all year, I like at least one to help kill the bugs out, we still have mosiquotes and here it is march

I do remember your pictures from a couple years ago, too. I actually would have loved it, including the shoveling, in my younger years, for a while anyway. But now that I am getting older by the minute, it doesn't sound like such a pleasant adventure.

I do not know how you do it either--but then I guess I do--what else IS there to do??-

and my REAL question is how does your house fair after a winter like this one??

I remember people thinking I was lying when I posted years ago that we'd slide off the roof. I had no camera to prove it.

It's hard on the houses. My house has shifted and my drywall is cracking everywhere. The cold and pressure does alot of damage.

I just can't take the cold like I use to, back about 20 years ago I almost froze to death (long story, a wlak home in a freak snow storm) any way it just changed my body chemo to where I can't take the cold now. Good thing I live in the south.

Well, I'm off to bed to dream of fields of clover

I can see why it would be rough on your house. and I can only feel for your heating bill

Okay, the real question I have for you is has your front door ever been snowed in so you can't get outside?

I totally couldn't handle living there.

sweet dreams of GREEN things, tamara.

Did you see the house that was snowed in! I wonder if she/he saw snow bunnys!

I want to know the answer to that one too....I couldn't take not being able to get out

WOW! what i can't get over is how BLUE the sky is! it makes even the snow look blue!

i'm glad you got shoveled out today, and i hope you don't get snowed in that bad on wed.

Sorry folks my sister posted the reply abou snow bunnies when i wasn't lookin

well I'm off to bed

nite all

OH Tamara,

I cannot even think how I could cope.. Not being able to see out the windows would make me feel like I was in a cave.

LIke you said, your used to it.. Where does the snow plow throw it all. YOu have a blower I suppose..

i cant belive your house got snowwed in.I'm sarah.My older brother's little sister.i wrot that note about the snow bunnys.my brother said i hav to right a sorry leter back .:)i fanily get to right something all by my selph.im only 9.cant i hav fun 2 :( can u plant flowers in snoww?










Li'l Sarah

Laying in bed showing Mark the pictures and he said....can I come play in it?

Then he said, where do they put all that snow?

Then I was thinking, when you warm up don't you get floods?

sorry,my sister got on again....

OMGOSH!! That is just... insane!! Wow!!!

That was my sister;every time i'm on here & I go do errands for my mom or use the john,she gets on .Sorry

I tell you Ashley would go crazy in that much snow, I'd never get her in the house

Let her play. Were not obscene on here........LOL fortunately.
Probably makes her day.

she's playing on the other computer hubby finally got both rigged to go on line

Thats kool to have a computer king in your house...I have to do my own thing.
Today I hooked up my camera to the tv and it showed all the photos on there.
THat was great.
Next I am going to take a movie like , and watch it ........First I have to find something moving..LOL

he did that kind of work when I first met him, he use to wire big buildings

Yes, it has but my door opens to the inside so we just open it and push through. then clean up the snow that falls in the house and shovel it back out

Now my sis-in-law had a door that opens in(they finally changed it last fall)...more than once we have had to go up and shovel her out so she could open the door, a few times they had to climb out through an upper window

Oh, Belinda~we cut our own firewood of our farm. We heat our house with a woodstove. Although electric heat runs most people over $400 a month here....and their houses are still cold.

We live in a very rural area so the snow gets pushed into open fields and wide ditches but now they are at the point where they need special blowers to blow it farther, DH has been working non stop at work driving grater.

Tell Mark to come over Loz, DH and he would get along great...both love carpentry and hunting.

Oh, about the sky....the skies here are as blue as the ocean after a storm.

??????????????

I started the topic called "My Snowy Life" and now notice it's posting under "That Snowwed in House", am I going crazy? Or has someone changed it?

we use gas heat here, I grew up using fire wood and still know alot of people who do.

You can't buy gas here to heat with.
