We usually plow when we get 2 inches, unless one of the accounts calls and asks for individual clean up. We have a few residential folks, but most of the accounts are commercial and require salting as well. A good snow (3" or more) will keep H in the truck for over 10 hours. More if there is blowing and drifting. We had the most snow ever last year since H and I started doing this (4 years). It really took a toll on him and our truck. Course the OW was morphing from my friend to his EA during that time also. The b!tch would take her evening jog at night when she new he would be out plowing downtown, so they could meet up and talk. My MIL & FIL were one of the first to see them! Ech!

Yuck Hope, started a new thread to hopefully stop the hijacking.
So his parents caught him first? And I'm sure he has guilt cuz he is doing what to you what your first H did. Wow.
You know, was having a talk with someone yesterday about selfrespect. Amazing to see a man's perspective on that. But I think it might apply here. You put up with it in first M, what did that say about your selfrespect? Now you are taking it again even though I'm pretty sure you told this H you would never ever do it again. I'm sure he hurts that he is making you face that again. Funny, I learned about selfrespect in one way, I stopped being the "wild child" I was, but now I put up with A after A, even if they are only EA or whatever they are, but what does that say about me? I don't know if this makes any sense. Why do we forfeit ourselves for someone else?
If you focus on the past, you ruin the future. You can only live for today.
Hope I saw they got some snow up in Ohio yesterday. Did it miss you? H's nephew used to take his Dad's tractor and go around town and clear parking lots for businesses. He always made really good money doing it!
I really don't look at it as forfeiting my own self respect. I have done nothing wrong. I hold my head up and look everyone squarely in the eye. God gives us free will. Some people, for a multiple number of reasons during the course of their lives, make choices with their free will that do not live up to what God would want us to do. I know that I am also guilty of that in some ways.
Kel, the way that I personally see things is that you began to respect yourself and no longer are the "wild child." You do not forfeit yourself to your H., you "gave" yourself to him in M. You also have a S with him.
What I see you and I doing is trying to live with forgiveness. "Forgive them Father, for the know not what they do." I know that your beliefs are probably a bit different than mine, but all the same, I think that you are able to walk the path that you do because you have great self respect.

It didn't miss us, got just enough to cover the ground. H probably should have been up early to salt, but we haven't put the salter on the truck yet. Takes 2 people to do it, so maybe tonight.
It was very cold again this morning, only 26. This is a little early, even for us. No one is really prepared for it. Ugh!!

Kel, wanted to tell you that my S25 flew in to Tampa yesterday. He picked up the salesman for the account they are working with and then drove on to Georgia. I thought they were staying in Florida, but no.
He is the one that probably brought the cold weather to you

Tampa?! Right around the corner. Then a 5 hour drive back to Georgia that sucks.
I don't care where the cold came from. I just like it a lot.
You know H you are right about the self respect. I have been sorta really ticked at myself for doing this AGAIN, but maybe it is still selfrespect. Living in Forgivness. And what you quoted, yes I agree with that too. I have a very deep faith in the Bible, just not so much with organized religion. That is created by man.
If you focus on the past, you ruin the future. You can only live for today.
morning ladies!! hey K dont worry I will gladly send you any cold and snow, i think we all will, we dont like it!! oh hope I so pray that H gets to go, that would be a miserable couple days for you if he doesnt!!
Have you started the first book yet?? I am half way thru the 4th one, the movie comes out this weekend my D13 and i are so pumped!
