through the blizzard like conditions screaming if i'm still alive ...

Yeah, so today was a monumental day in my life ... I finally got a key to the front door of my house. The lock on the door has 2 keys that can not be duplicated, and my Dad's key finally broke yesterday so he was forced to replace the lock. For the first time in 25+ years, today, I didn't have to walk around to the back to get in my house. Felt good =). Got some more stuff done, finally got a pool table light for my pool room, so thats done. Mom and Dad are going away to visit Jonathan for like 4 days, so it should be a fun rest of the week.
