Yup, it dumped another 6+inches in Yarmouth, then topped with sleet and finally rain.

 

When I rolled out of bed around 9am, it had already turned from snow to sleet. John and I ate a quick breakfast and we were out shoveling by 10am. I barrowed the neighbors roof rake and tackled the garage and house roof. Using a roof rake isn't as easy as it looks. It takes some serious guns to operate the roof rake. Hattie  came out and joined John and I in our 2 -2.5 ordeal of shoveling wet heavy snow. Not sure where our other roommate was in helping out on this one. The snow banks are again huge! If we get hit with another 6+ in storm we are going to have to go back to shoveling the snow banks back.

After the shoveling ordeal I had to go to So. Po to pick up my winter boots which needed to have the heal restitched. Turns out the cobbler couldn't do it, so i had to take it to another guy. I hate driving through So. Po, I always seem to get lost in that area. I made it down to the shop fine on Mon when i road down, but didn't do so well on the return. I did find another cobbler who seemed more skilled and professional than the first. He even fixed the shoes that day! If you ever need a cobbler go to Roy's Shoe Repair on Rt 1 in Scarborough. Good guy and great prices. Now the winter riding boots should be good to go. 

Hattie's car needed a new battery as well. I was going to buy one for not a lot of $ and install it myself. Turns out VIP's battery was an extra $15 and they installed it for free. I figured this was probably a better idea. Working on cars isn't my cup of tea.

Today I am in for a teacher at the High School. I have a freshmen class right now which are watching a video on Athens and Sparta. There are a few punks in the class, but overall not to bad.

Take care, more snow on the way for Fri!
