Day 171

Day 171: Today's Happy is brought to you by the letter H: "H" for "hiring someone to do it for you." It was announced on the local news that last week OS and surrounding area received a whopping 150cm of snow. I feel a little better about feeling overwhelmed by it now knowing that it was a excessive, but knowledge alone doesn't help me defend Lovely House from the onslaught of ice damage. After spending 6+ hours doing the back of my house by myself, I bit the bullet and hired someone to do the front. Best $$ I've spent in a long, long time. When he began the work the ice that had accumulated from only two real weeks of winter was over a foot thick in some places, and the icicles cascaded down the edge of the roof like a frozen waterfall. Working together it took a little over an hour and a half to do it all and clean up the ground. I'll sleep so well tonight knowing that I've kind of "reset" Lovely House to prepare for the next winter assault. Today, this gentleman and the work he did for my home was my Happy! #LovelyHouse #365happydays
