Not that it's fun, but you learn how to handle it.<br /><br />Kelly - We do have the larger of the two mailbox sizes and you'd be surprised what the mailman can get in there! We've found it stuffed so full with a friction-like fit that we didn't think we were going to be able to get the first package out!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-33786170237930296822010-12-10T10:03:59.371-06:002010-12-10T10:03:59.371-06:00Wow, you must have one giant mailbox to hold all t...Wow, you must have one giant mailbox to hold all those packages!<br /><br />I had a chuckle at your expense, though I figured you don't mind.

Not sure it snowed at home, some 45 miles east, toward DC. This Florida girl gets pretty nervous when driving in just a light snow. I'd be a wreck if I lived where you are. Think I would hibernate all winter. Take much care on the ice, Mama Pea.Loriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05294056530885964319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-3770434502882582682010-12-10T08:14:45.219-06:002010-12-10T08:14:45.219-06:00Leigh - Nah, didn't hurt myself at all.

It's those strong German bones and adequate padding that work for me! ;o) But it is unbelievably icy under the snow which is worrisome. <br /><br />Erin - Funny you should mention something about the pictures looking "quiet." Once when we were outside yesterday, hubby stopped and said, "It's so quiet. I just love that." We're so used to being fortunate enough to live here, we sometimes forget to appreciate it.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-70468862816770473132010-12-10T07:58:54.381-06:002010-12-10T07:58:54.381-06:00Well I just can't believe Papa Pea didn't ...Well I just can't believe Papa Pea didn't get a photo of you in your accidental snow angel pose LOL! Seriously, be careful! Love the mail shot and driveway photo, it all looks so peaceful and quiet... as I type there are F/A18 SuperHornets screaming overhead, ugh! One can only hope we are taken care of in our old age as well as our canine companions, even though she has to be leashed now I am sure she does appreciate still being able to accompany you on your walks.<br /><br />I'm off to do the laundry, this is getting old.... really fast LOL!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-33023736111444192562010-12-10T06:59:25.678-06:002010-12-10T06:59:25.678-06:00I'd say you've got some snow!

Yv...Jane - Four on the floor and toenails to boot!<br /><br />Yvette - Hooray, we're getting more snow now as I type. <br /><br />There is nothing funnier than someone falling. Why is that?? :o)<br /><br />Sue - The walk out to get the mail is a very gentle downhill all the way. But you know what that means for the trip back! You don't even notice the slant going down so why the heck does it feel like you're climbing a mountain coming back? I could really go for that sled to ride in coming back to the house! Great idea. We'll see how that goes over with the puller!<br /><br />APG - You know that extra layer of winter fat we've all been talking about? Well, I landed right on it. Nope, didn't hurt myself a bit and the pride didn't even suffer 'cause nobody (well, 'cept hubby and dog which don't really count) saw me. But, boy, was that a helpless feeling. Even with hubby trying to pull me up, I could NOT get a purchase with my feet and I'm sure I looked like a big ol' fish floppin' around on land!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-6473688239545397602010-12-09T18:02:50.878-06:002010-12-09T18:02:50.878-06:00Owie!

Maybe hubby will have to start pulling you on a sled--hey-That sounds fun!<br />Hope some of that snow gets us too.

I just can't help it. I can just picture you flailing around trying to get your footing and falling down again. It is easy for me to picture because I myself have done it many times ... LOL<br /><br />I hope you get the rest of your snow. We just cannot have an unhappy Mama Pea!<br /><br />Hugs and wishes for snow!<br />Yvettemtnchildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17457636624663214696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-68647603085921173882010-12-09T17:30:14.495-06:002010-12-09T17:30:14.495-06:00Ouch!
