Life Changes

The moving van arrived today and now my home for the past ten years is empty. They also ran over my garbage, which has grown considerably since my prior post. But as luck would have it, the garbage crew came through on an unscheduled pickup and cleared the debris.

As the van was being loaded I watched my neighbor across the street try to park her car on her steep icy driveway. She’s from Brazil and really doesn’t know much about removing snow from her driveway before it freezes. She couldn’t get her car into her garage and it began to slide down the slope, threatening to hit my car which was parked at the curb below. She managed to recover, thankfully.

So I gave her my snow shovel. I won’t be needing it.
