Hot tub anyone?

Winter is here full force and I can honestly say I have never lived in so much snow. Everyone just laughs a knowing laugh that indicates I'm completely nieve and the worst is yet to come. Good thing I love boots and scarves and mittens and all things winter related.

The best thing in the winter is glitter snow. You know the kind of snow I'm talking about... Very light and has a certain sparkle as it falls that it's almost like diamonds surrounding you (hey a girl can dream). It all just seems and feels so magical you can't help but be in an instant better mood just watching it fall outside your window.

Another perk of winter would be hot tubs... It's the perfect time for them!! It's a refuge from the cold while still enjoying the outdoors. You find that nice corner spot that allows you to sink back and spread out with jets massaging from your neck down to your toes. Awwwwhhhh Such bliss.

But with every perk comes problem or so it would seem... High electric bill, maintenance, etc. I assume one of these problems seemed to have been an issue for a neighbour 3 houses down the alleyway recently. A few months back there was lots of discussion around garbage picking (which will be a topic for a later date) and as we were traveling down the alley one day, The Suit notices this hot tub and makes a comment like we should get it. Looking back I don't think he was serious but since it had been a hobby of sorts at the time, I was a little worried that we would end up with some broken disgusting left over stale someone else's butt touched hot tub like it was a good idea. Thankfully the thought passed and the negatives were processed with the idea and no action was taken (I'm sure our lives were spared). This was back in September.

A couple days ago the infamous hot tub was moved. Instead of rotting in the back of its owners house, they apparently thought it would be a good idea to instead let it rot on its side in the snow by our neighbours back yard who lives on the corner (WHAT JERKS). As Captain drops off the young babe there was a comment made in hopes it falls while driving by so charges can be pressed for such stupidity. (I wouldn't hope for such a headache but to each his own!)
Yesterday, it fell. And no not on captains vehicle, or anyone else's for that matter. It fell over right smack dab in the middle of the entryway of the alley. Meaning we all have to go all the way around just to get to our garage. Idiots. I can't help but wonder what neighborhood turds are going to now see this as a community hot tub fit for using right where it's at. I can see it now "hey joe bring your cooler of beer, we got a hot tub!!!" Interrupted in thought, Gramma comes home and first thing out of her mouth, "WHAT THE HELL THAT HOT TUB DOING OUT THERE?!"
