Snow is falling all around

So most of you know (that live in Utah) but really anywhere, that it has been snowing all day long around here. I started my day off in North Salt Lake watching the twins. Half way through the day it started snowing. Although I love the snow I just thought how in the heck am I going to get home. I was up on the east bench. Almost all the way to the top! Anyway, I finally got the courage to go outside and brave the drive home that usually takes me about 10 minutes took me almost 40! I am very thankful that my car is good in the snow and that I was watched over making my way down off the east bench. When I finally made it back to our apartment, I thought to myself. I still have to go to the post office, but something has got to be done about all this snow in our drive way ( I think that I parked part way on the grass)! I came inside but on better shoes then what I had on, got my gloves, and grabbed the snow shovel and outside I went! At first I thought to myself, why in the heck has some snow removal not already been done around here because we live in a little apartment community. But I just started to shovel the steady falling snow. I had been outside about 10 minutes thinking this is going to take me FOREVER! Because of all the snow! Well pretty soon I looked up and saw the nice guy in the building across the street starting his snow blower and across the street he came to my rescue! After we got our driveway done he started to go to the other side of the building and started to do the other driveway! So I went along and helped him finish! It felt really good to help him do the other driveway! But I also felt very very thankful that he came over and helped me! I didn't catch his name but I thanked him and he went on his way! Again, I am very thankful that he came to my rescue or I might still be out there! I was going to go outside and take a picture of this pretty bush that is in our backyard with all the snow all over it but I can't find my camera!!!!
