GOTTA LOVE PA

 GOTTA LOVE PA by Loretta Frost

August 15

Moved to a new home in Pennsylvania . It's so beautiful here. The lake to the north looks so majestic. I can hardly

wait to see it snow covered. I'm going to love it here.

October 14

Pennsylvania is definitely the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves have turned all the colors and shades of red and orange. Went for a ride through the park and saw some deer. They are so graceful. Certainly they are the most wonderful animals on earth. This must be paradise, I LOVE IT HERE.

Deer season will start soon. I can't imagine anyone wanting to kill such a gorgeous animal, hope it will snow soon. I love it here. Those red and orange leaves have covered my yard. Looks like a magnificent multi-colored carpet. HOW BEAUTIFUL. Raking and cleaning up the yard will be an opportunity for invigorating exercise in the cool crisp air.

November 15 -

Ah, more leaves and more exercise.

November 18 -

Good grief Still more leaves. Guess it's best to wait until they've all fallen before I rake again.

November 25 -

Finally, all of the trees lost their leaves and today's final raking it's over for this season. Chiropractor suggested I use a lawn maintenance service next year. Only four blisters became infected. Should probably remember to use gloves.

November 30 -

What the heck? Where did all of those leaves come from? A little wind last night and the lawn is covered again. Oh well, they'll just have to wait until spring.

It snowed last night, FINALLY. Woke up to find everything blanketed in white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the driveway. Had a snowball fight (I won) and then the snowplow came by and we had to shovel the end of the driveway again. What a beautiful place. I Love Pennsylvania

December 14 -

More snow last night, I love it. The snowplow did his trick to the driveway again. I Love it here.

December 19 -

More snow again last night. Can't get out of the driveway to get to work. I'm exhausted from shoveling. Dang snowplow.

December 22 -

More of that white sh-t fell again last night. As if dealing with the leaves wasn't bad enough, now I've got blisters all over my hands from shoveling, must remember to wear gloves. I think the snowplow hides around the corner and waits until I'm finished shoveling the driveway. The a--hole.

December 25 -

Merry Christmas. More frigging snow. If I ever get my hands on that son-of-a-b - - -h who drives the snowplow. I swear I'll kill him. Don't know why they don't use more salt on the

roads to melt the dang ice.

December 27 -

More white sh-t last night. Have been inside for three days except for shoveling out the driveway after that plow goes through every time. Gloves got wet and then froze on my hands. Doctor said it was just a mild case of frostbite, disfiguration is probably only temporary. Can't go anywhere, car is stuck in a mountain of white sh-t. The weatherman says to expect another 10 inches tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10 inches is?

December 28 -

The dang weatherman was wrong. We got 34 inches of that white sh-t. At this rate it won't melt 'till summer. The plow got stuck up the road and the bastard came to the door and asked to borrow a shovel. After I told him I'd already broken six of them shoveling all the sh-t he pushed into the driveway, I broke my last one on his head.

January 4 -

Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on the way back I hit a damned deer that ran in front of my car. Did about $3000 damage. Stupid beast should be killed. Wish the hunters had killed them all last November.

May 3 -

Took the car to the garage in town. The thing is rusting out from all the darn salt they put all over the roads.

May 10 -

Moved to The Villages in Florida . I can't imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever live in that God-forsaken state of Pennsylvania
