Granny's gone and done it again

Hi grannyland, hubby, myself, my dd & SIL got the roof shoveling completed. Body is hurting big time. Hubby is really sore as well. I did the easy parts this past week, but hubs had to move all the snow from the front of the house. 3 roof lines come meet at the center of the house & that area has very little pitch. The snow swirls & packs in that area bad & it is so far to the roof edge. Here are some pictures of the piles below. Lots of snowblowing & shoveling to get pathways cut through them.

1st picture, front of house, note the front deck is still buried. 2nd picture is my back deck after all the snow was pushed off. 3rd picture is backside of house between garage & kids apartment. 4th picture is of grannies side lol. 5th picture is of the path I had to shovel out to expose the sun porch door & window. Was very hairy getting to the door. Had to dig myself out first. One leg sunk clear to the deck & as I was trying to get myself up on the pile by crawling when my arms broke thru the pile & I was face down in the snow. Little scary for a few mimutes. Didn't panic, got myself upright finally & then dug my leg out. It's done & I pray to God that it doesn't snow enough where we would have to do it again. It's hard when Jan, Feb & March are our heaviest snow fall months.

That’s so much snow! Hope this is the worse you get. I’d take some from ya! I want to use all the snow days up.
 
I Wonder if there is a place on the camera for a mini tripod ...
Apparently there is...

Good heavens, Lisa! There is still a lot more winter left to go too. How high can it get!!
 
OMG Lisa, no words. Robert wants to know if you had to crawl out of a window to get out the house .
Hahaha, climb over piles yes we did. Couldnt take any pictures of how much came off the roof because dd & I were shoveling & snowblowing it as it hit the ground. Even then it was as hard as concrete. You had to chop into the pile to knock it down where the snowblower could move it.
