Another great toon. As pathetic as the situation is, you always find a way to make me smile.

3. took me an hour to dig out of a snowbank

tried to brave the roads this morning... less than 1/4 mile down the road, I heard on the radio that the roads I usually take were closed due to snow, stuck trucks and/or rock slides...

so I figure I might as well turn around and go back home.

had an idiot on my butt in a big truck so I needed to continue up the road until I could come to a place where I could safely turn around.

another 3/4-mile there's a side road, I go to turn off, and the car gently slides into a snow bank, the idiot continued on down the road...

I put the car into reverse and spin the wheels.. stuck

flip on the emergency lights, put the car in park and I get out to look -- driver's side wasn't bad, passenger side wheel was buried, plus a big pile of snow up under the car

stupid me never put the extra shovel in the trunk... so we improvise - I get out the big honking snow/ice scrapper with a big blade on it and start digging out the wheels

after about 45minutes, 3 cars going by without stopping, and one other car did offer help but didn't know what they could do - thanks for stopping anyways, yes, I have a cell phone and if i can't get out in a few more minutes I'll call for help...

tried digging out a bit more - no luck. On the cell phone, call my partner - I'm stuck, bring a shovel and the bucket of ash (wood ash from wood stove)

I go back to shovling and scooping, got the wheel somewhat free, cleared out the snow from under the front. Back in the car I start turning the wheels back and forth, and then straighten them out - put the car in reverse and....

there was was some backwards movement, put it into drive and we rock forward an inch or two -- reverse again, YEAAAAAA - some more movement

within a couple of minutes I managed to "rock" my way out of the snow...

got on the cell phone again to call my partner and tell her "nevermind"

no answer - she must be outside clearing off her truck..

I pulled into our driveway just as she was trudging down the walkway with the shovel and ash bucket...

high probability of another snow day....
