so I can't barely move my arms so this will be short. I have spent over 4 1/2 hours shoveling. Started with the steps, then the driveway, then the neighbors got stuck, then helped them chain up their 4WD, unstuck em, then shoveled the entire road which is about a football fields lenght, then unshoveled my car which is parked at the main road. I'm tired. No more shoveling. Sierra Summit has received over 8 feet of snow in the past week. My house (where it never snows...BS!) has received about 2 feet if not more.
I'm tired...I can't feel my arms.

Powder Day!
WOW! What a great day! I went skiing with Shannon and Chris and some of their friends today! We got a couple of feet of snow and I got to have my first powder skiing day EVER! It was fabulous! Know what is even better! You can go down runs you would never try and any ordinary day and fall and not get hurt! It's like falling into a pool of feathers! I had so much fun, my legs are so tired! But along with the wonderful skiing there is always the idiot drivers! In the mountains when it snows you need tire chains or 4WD. Well, Sean (my boss's son) drove me home. We are driving (around all the cars stuck on the road) and we get to one of the steeper hills. There is a RV stuck at the top, and about 4 cars behind it. We are stopped on the incline. Pretty soon, brakes on, we start sliding backwards, Sean stears the truck back into the snow bank. Then the Expedition infront of us starts sliding back toward us. I just said "Brace for impact!" and boom! we get hit. Well the Expedition yells out the window to make sure are ok, and turns to go back down the moutain (there was no going back up at that point) then we turn. We meet up and all he had was a little pin dent, and the ranch truck was fine. It was interesting seeing all of these trucks slide backwards down the hill. Pretty soon CHP came and was only letting one vehicle up the road at a time.
To continue. We got to my house, which we got stuck going up my road! Shannon got her car stuck coming home and she's not moving her car now for a couple of days, and Chris's friend Aaron got his truck stuck infront of Shannon's house. AND the neighbors decided it was a great day to move their stuff out of their house and had a Uhaul that got stuck a couple of times and messed up the road.
Fun times in Cali!
Oh sorry, no pics of the snow, I didn't want to re-ruin my "underwater camera" that I had to pay 100 bucks to fix because it sucks. Just hold a white piece of paper a foot infront of your face and thats what the picture would look like.
Till my next snow adventure!

Happy Valentines Day!
So on this romantic holiday (that I am spending alone...AGAIN!) I decided to share with you my latest pick up line...at least I think it was....or he was telling me I was fat...?
So the other day a guy was looking around in the store and asked me if I had any funny ski patrol shirts. I really didn't have anything like that and he told me it was a joke between him and his buddy. I mentioned I had a funny bar/beer shirt and he excitingly said that he wanted to see it. Well he wanted it. I brought it up to the front counter, told my boss to ring him up and I went back over to the rack I was rearranging. He then came over to me and handed me his card, told me he owns a fitness club and if I was ever in the area to call him and I could go work out there.
Okay....so was that a pick up line or did he really just tell me I was fat and needed to work out?
oh yeah, Happy Valentines Day...I hope someone is getting some cuddles right now.

Snow!
Thought I would post our pic online! My sis, her husband, Chris, and some of there friends, came to visit me a couple of weekends ago and we all went out skiing. Chris took off with his friends for most the day but my sis and I got to spend some time together. (Check out my cute new ski outfit. I love the resort business! oh yeah, I'm in the red jacket.) Behind us is Huntington Lake. It was a beautiful day as you can tell and we are getting more snow right now. Today I'm working in our Fresno Store making it pretty and restocking but I will be up at the resort for our busy presidents day weekend! We have received over 40 inches of snow in the past couple of days and should be getting alot more in the next 4 days! Minnesota- Eat your heart out!
Beyond the snow business, I am starting to hear back on a couple of jobs and I am hoping to get a offer! Wish me luck!
