Default The "can do" is not worth the "OMG I did"

Somewhat due to the lack of assistance I am getting from my daughter & her BF (who both live with me and do not work) and somewhat do to the mindset that I need to try things to see what I can really do...let me just say...don't.

My daughter & I left around 8 this morning to run some errands, snow had fallen overnight and it was still early (in the minds of these two yahoo's) so the drive had not been cleared. We returned around 11 and the drive was still not cleared. Mr. Yahoo was being productive as he was in the process of installing new flooring. I will give him that. However, when it snows, the priority needs to be clearing the drive/walk surfaces of the home. Apparently he needs to not only be told that but must not think it's a 'able-bodied man' thing to do. In my attempt to start the derned blower, I ventured inside to inquire as to how this is accomplished (it's a new blower). He simply informed me of the procedure and returned to the flooring. Okay.

So hobbly me went back to the blower, got it started and cleared the drive & front walk. I am SOOOOO feeling it now. Not sure I will walk for 2-3 days.

Let this be a lesson to all....don't.
