One for the guys
Another snowy day in New England and a good time to work at home. While working on some web content for a client this morning my wife says she off to work. I let her know the plow guy hasn't arrived to plow the driveway. She looks out the window and says no problem I'll make it out. I remind her she doesn't have the truck any more and she should wait a half hour, Greg (the plow guy) will be here soon. Earlier I shoveled the front of the garage door to make it easier for Greg. The snow is wet, heavy and about one foot deep. My wife has a Ford Edge, with a 10 inch clearance. The end of the driveway is two feet.
I let her know that she will not make it out of the driveway and that she should wait until the plow arrives. She says no I have to get to work and I'll make it, I have front wheel drive. Having been here before I say Ok honey drive safe and have a nice day.
Well guys you know what happened, she got stuck. She gets out of the car in her high heels with the snow brush trying to dig out to no avail.
So out I go with my son to shovel her out so she can get to work. I was tempted to tell her I told you so but chose to say don't worry just go inside we'll take care of it.
I remember all those times when I was driving (my wife suggested pull over and get directions) and I was obviously lost but my ego wouldn't let me give in.
Today the shoe is on the other foot and this guy can chuckle and say quietly to himself I tried to warn you sweetheart.
