A Shoveling & Scraping Kind of Saturday

If Chimmie had free run of the house, this would be our couch
 Linda had so much fun teaching classes today.  There was only one person, a new guy, in WIM who decided to brave the roads.  Since he was new to aqua classes, she spent some extra time teaching him the moves.  Next she played TKD dodge ball with the students.  Just 8 kids showed up, so she treated them to something special.  We were home alone, and totally bored.  No visits from dog walkers today.  Not that we would actually walk on the ice and crusty snow, but it would have been nice to have company.  Linda came home right after work though.  She is waiting to see if Taylor will be taking her to look at more homes this afternoon.  The first thing she had to do was shovel the steps, both front and back.  When she went into the garage to look for the shovel, guess what was front and center?  An ice scraper!  What?  It either appeared by magic or she must have bought one and forgot.  Weird, but a very welcome surprise!  She got the front windshield cleared this AM, but did not do the side windows.  It was kind of dangerous because she had to roll down the window to turn.  She finished shoveling and made sure the steps were cleared of most of the ice.  Chimmie was very thankful since he was scared to even go out on the deck.  When he saw her walk down, he followed her to do his business.
