The van went in to the shop on Tuesday, because we have had no heat in it for several days now. No heat comes out on the drivers side or the back, and every time you turn it off, the climate controls all reset to everything off when you turn it on again. So the van was in the shop all day, and they found a problem, but didn't have the parts for it. And they're so backed up with work that I had to reschedule for the 17th instead of just leaving it or bringing it back tomorrow. So, no heat in the van for a couple more weeks.
Snowmageddon this week. It started snowing on Tuesday night, and school had been cancelled for Wednesday before long on Tuesday evening. Just as well, because once it started it didn't stop for days. It snowed pretty much constantly until Friday night. By the time it was done, there was about a foot and a half of snow on the ground. I spent a lot of time shoveling, both our own driveway and Linda's across the street (she keeps trying to pay me to do it and I keep saying no, but finally I took some and it was too much, like $50). I think I shoveled our driveway 8 times in a couple days and hers at least 3 or 4 times. I was trying to keep up with the snow so it didn't get unmanageably deep, but that meant doing it often because it was snowing hard, constantly. School was cancelled (e-learning) for 3 days, no youth group. Roads were bad but not bad enough to keep me home from work. Overall, a pretty huge snowstorm but I've seen worse.
