My Own Show

This afternoon/evening, I return to Paradise.

And I wish to heaven above I had some sort of video mounted somewhere that would capture what is SURE to be the comedy that will be me trying to leave the Rockford Airport.

I left Lana, (my car in case you forgot), parked - outside - at the Rockford airport 2 weeks ago this past Wednesday.

Since then, from what I understand, there has been a hell of a lot of snow. Hell, they're getting a bunch more today! Anyway, some of that snow melted, then froze again, making (if I remember my science correctly) ice.

Yipee.

Now, let's make this just that much more interesting, shall we. I came to Florida. I brought a pair of flip flops and a couple pairs of 3" pumps for dresses. Oh, and I wore my boots. No, not my snow boots, are you NUTS?!?! That would make WAY to much sense. Noooo....I wore my dress boots with the, you guessed it, 3" heels.

So picture this....me, struggling with my HUGE travel purse, my laptop, my pull along dress bag and my cosmetic case. In 3" heels and wearing my long winter coat - no hood or scarf because again, that's actually logical.

Also, I haven't had to scrape my car all year, since I now have a garage. I'm not even sure where that damned scraper is. I can only hope it's in the car, under all the work stuff I usually haul around.

But I do have gloves, so there is that.....

Yeah....I just hope the doors aren't froze shut. I'm not real patient with stuff like that.

Oh, and then let's just think about the driveway. All that snow, lots of plowing. The town thought it was bad before, I can only imagine it NOW. I hope I can get in. Mama Vi suggested if I can't get past the pile of plowed crap to just park at the church. A block away. And just haul my stuff.

Yeah.....that's not gonna happen, let me just tell you that now.

Did I mention the furnace was still giving me a few problems when I left? Yeah, well, it was. I sure do hope I have heat.

BUT....I'm goin' home. It'll be fine. Funny. But fine.......
