Well, it snowed like all hell last night, I mean not like it snowed like all hell, but it was forecast to snow like all hell, and that alone was enough to totally freak out Allison at work. Depending on who you listened to, we were going to receive either six, eight or maybe even ten inches of snow! Fabulous! I don't know why this should freak Allison out, as everybody knows that Central Ohio never gets the full quota of snowfall we are promised. Nobody except Allison even pays attention to the forecasts anymore.

Needless to say, we didn't get the promised six, eight or ten inches. We did get maybe three or so, so I trekked on over to the folks to shovel off their driveway. You got to get over there pretty quick, because otherwise they'll get it into their head to go off and shovel their drive themselves, sooner or later. Nobody wants that.

Well, it didn't take long to clear off their snow. Not least was because the snow changed to rain. It's been a steady dreary drizzle since, so I'm pretty sure that even had I not sweated away with the snow-shovel, the rain would have melted away all the parental snow regardless. Lesson learned? Trying to help = Pointless

Anyway, I did get to spend some time with my folks, and I haven't been able to do that for, I don't know, at least a good couple days. Mum's looking pretty good, she's had her drainage device removed. Fucking thing always creeped me out. From what I understand, she won't have to do the chemo thing or the radio thing, and that is pretty damn cool. She'll probably have to do this hormone therapy thing, which is kind of a drag I guess, but doesn't seem to be all that odious.

I'm starting to think that the only things I ever bother to write about are my parents and their medical issues. BOO TO THAT!. Seriously, why don't they get their own blog THEREBY SAVING ME THE BOTHER?
