woo hoo trash hauling day in the earliest snow since 1969 (at least in boise). and we have a few weeks' worth too.....

loaded on the snowmobile trailer to go to the dump. the good thing about it was i figured this is enough physical labor to get me a free pass at the cafe- so when we had lunch i had a (very good) patty melt & tots. they can do yummy not so healthy food here!

steve got the house numbers up and fixed the phone line & a spot on the drain where there was a problem. i was reading in the truck bundled up in a comforter while that was happening- still no heat in the house.

we do have some insulation and as soon as we have sheetrock up we'll have the ceiling insulated & then we can have a furnace. i guess the sheetrock happens next week- oh boy! more trash to haul. when i very reasonably asked if we got trash cans would they be used ( instead of the big nailed together catch all box) i was just told to quit whining. guess it's too hard to put garbage in anything smaller than a dumpster sized shape. oh well.

here's today's view. steve thinks the weather is a bit early. he shouldn't have even thought about the snow dance until we had a heater installed & trim painted! oh well- maybe back to 60 next week...... and the dogs loved it!
