AAAGGGH! It is snowing again today. Huge amounts again. I just got home after spending most of the time not in actual classes outside trying to keep the walks safe for the people dumb enough to come out today, which was actually a lot of people. I had 9 in my first class and only 3 in my second. But people came for lunch – about 8 of them. And they came in for cards and some others are coming for a homemaker’s meeting. It wouldn’t be so bad if there wasn’t so much glare ice under the snow where you can’t see it. I fell hard again today and another gentleman also fell. He got up on his own and seemed all right, but he is 84 years old, so I’m sure he will be bruised and sore tomorrow. The main problem is the ice in the alley (which is where I fell) and the ice along the curb (which is where he fell). It covers so much area that it is impossible for me to shovel all of it in order to find the places that need salt. I went through about 1/2 of a big bag of salt today as it was.
