When it snows 4″ overnight and you live in a rural area that beautiful white stuff creates some chores that need to be done.
Peter has taught me that the key thing about happiness in winter is to stay on top of the chores instead of putting them off. In other words, 4″ of snow is easy to deal with when compared to dealing with 4 feet of white stuff that is starting to get hard. Ice. If I don’t let the snow levels get too overwhelming, the beauty of the season remains a very much enjoyed item.
Thank God for Peter Woelk. I thank my lucky stars many times during winter as I notice how much he does. I was given a considerate and dependable grown-up man who takes care of winter snow removal. He does it without complaint, guilt, or resentment! His advice is so relevant, when shoveling a roof, sidewalk, or clearing a path to the car a little accumulation is so much easier to deal with.
The larger jobs are what I think he just loves to do. We all know he loves to drive the Kubota, so, clearing the driveway and our part of the road is something that falls under the “enjoyable” chore list for him. But, still, there are a lot of people that avoid even these simple chores like a plague. After the chores are done it is time to go outside and have some fun.
