SO THAT WE ALL CAN CONTNUE TO BE ENTERTAINED BY THIS TERRIC SITE!!! Chapter 92 When we left for the gym at 3:30 Thursday the air smelled like snow and the white clouds were filling the sky. I just hoped it would start late in the day so that everyone was home from work and school. The gym was still kind of busy with newbies but it was only the first week of the New Year. It was a pain in the ass when you are used to having maybe four to five guys there compared to a dozen or more. The majority of the talking was about whether there would be overtime on the weekend. We had a good workout and tomorrow we will be shoveling snow so that will take care of our workout. When we got to the department Zachary reheated our oatmeal. As usual Stanley was the only one there enjoying his solitude. Sebastian was going in to shower as we were leaving and he was in a good mood and I knew for the fact that Samuel was hired and there were job prospects for Sebastian Jr. Hector came in a few minutes before our starting time announcing it was starting to flurry. Stanley and I went over the list of jobs we had and what should be prioritized. He and I both agreed to get rid of as much work as possible knowing we would not be here tomorrow. As soon as it got light out Zachary and Hector would be going outside to finish shipping two jobs so they would leave on the first truck. I made arrangements with transportation to meet them out there. They were happy to get as much shipped in case I95 got bad as the day went on. Sebastian and Stanley were going to finish up in Final Assembly and I would take care of the few jobs here and get the blueprints. Zachary and Hector came in and they both say 'It is cold but the snow is light and not sticking on the flight field.' I say 'Go to the cafeteria and get hot chocolate if you want.' They both say 'No Thanks it is gross.' Hector says 'I will make my own here. Zachary do you want one?' Zachary says 'No thank you. I'm good.' I say 'I'm going to get blueprints.' Hector laughs 'Watch out for Muff the snow makes her horny.' Zachary says 'Snow!! Just breathing makes her horny.' Hector roars 'Jared the little one knows already. Mijo I'm sorry you are not a little one I meant the young one knows already.' Zachary smiles 'Hector I know what you meant.' Repro was busy I put in my requests and left. The few jobs we had left would be finished by the end of the day. On my way back to the department I met up with Sebastian and Stanley they were finished and everything was good. When we got back Sebastian, Hector and Zachary got started on the last four jobs. They needed the prints and I left again to get them. Muff was just finishing mine when I walked in and thanked her and left. When I got back I gave them the prints and spotted an email from Jim to meet for coffee at 10:15. I just about got there on time. It was decided that no one would be working Saturday the shop would be closed Friday and Saturday. The weather report from NOOAA stated that there would be a good thirty inches when it was all over for us. That is one good thing about where I work we get the best and latest forecasts. Jim says 'Samuel accepted the job right away and he already called that Sebastian Jr wants to apply for two of the jobs I sent to him. He is coming in next Wednesday for interviews.' I was happy and told Jim 'I don't think you will regret this. They do have strong work ethics.' Jim says 'I know, I wish I could bring him into this department.' I answer 'There is no way it would end peaceably. It would never work out the elder Sebastian would not be able to contain himself.' Jim laughed 'I know.' I relayed how we should be caught up with our backlog after lunch. Jim says 'Listen if it gets bad out there fast they will let anyone leave that wants to.' I laugh 'What a difference from when we started forty years ago.' Jim says 'That is for sure they never closed and you were expected to come to work no matter what and stay the whole day. But they got enough law suits thrown at them from people getting hurt and in accidents it was smarter to go this route.' Looking outside the cafeteria windows the snow was starting to pick up. Jim says 'If it stays like this I may head out myself once there are a few inches on the ground.' I reply 'I was thinking the same thing myself and I think Hector may too he is the furthest away out of all of us.' Jim says 'He is further than me.' It is almost lunch and we end our meeting and say that we will email each other as the day goes on. By the time I get back it is lunch and I announce 'The shop will be closed tomorrow and Saturday and the only way that will change is if we only get a few inches which are doubtful since they are predicting thirty inches. Also once the snow picks up in intensity you can leave with no penalty but also no pay. Once there are a few inches on the ground I am leaving myself. No one needs to be a hero here.' I look right at Hector and he smiles. Zachary says 'Noni texted the boys are getting out at 11:30 and DJ at 11:00. She will text when they are home. Poppi is walking to the bus stop to meet them.' After lunch Hector says 'Jared I am leaving at 12:30 the snow is picking up and I will have six hours in anyway.' I answer 'No problem.' Jim lets me know he is leaving at 12:30 and I tell him so is Hector. Zachary gets a text after noon that all the boys are at Noni's having lunch. She is in her glory she has made them soup and they had their own lunches to eat. Andrea texts that the Doctor's office is open as long as there still patients who haven't cancelled and of course you get the couple that hasve't cancelled yet and Sr. is leaving at 2pm his office is closing early. I go look outside and there is only a few inches on the ground but the wind is starting to pick up. Hector left and there really isn't anything to do we have cleaned up everything. Andrea texted her boss called the two patients that hadn't cancelled and told them the office was closing and to reschedule. She was happy she would be home in thirty minutes. Anthony was closing early also and texted me on his way home. Becky and the kids were already home. Anthony said the roads were snow covered in spots but not bad. While we were all hanging around and watching the clock Sebastian says 'My middle son has been hired and is going to work for Jim.' We all answered 'That is great.' Sebastian continued 'My oldest is coming in for three interviews next week too. I think you Jared had something to do with this.' I answered 'Sebastian not really Jim asked my opinion and I told him what I knew. Basically you and Stanley's work ethics that was the main factor.' Sebastian says 'Well thank you anyway you were the one who told me to have them put applications in to begin with.' I say 'Happy to do it.' There was a slow stream of people leaving since 11am for a lot that was the half way part of their day but on the top of every hour people were taking off. I looked out from a window on the second floor and I would say a little over a quarter of the lot was empty. I came back in and said 'I am leaving at 2:00.' Stanley says 'You know I think I will too. I'm the closest but to tell you the truth I am bored as all hell.' Sebastian looks at Zachary and Zachary says 'I have no choice Jared is my ride.' I say 'Sebastian you can stay till 2:30 you know how to shut off the lights and lock up.' Sebastian who surprised me says 'No I will leave with you guys it is too quiet in the shop.' At 1:40 I say 'I'm going out to start my truck and warm it up. You guys can do that too if you want.' Another surprise they both come with me. Zachary stays inside and starts to shut everything down. At 2pm the four of us walked out and there were people leaving. Stanley says I'm glad we warmed up our cars and cleaned them off we won't get stuck in traffic. The four say our 'goodbyes' and 'be careful' and 'see you Monday.' Traffic on the roads wasn't bad but I wouldn't say it was light. We got home a earlier than normal by about twenty minutes. I left the truck on the street while we cleaned off the driveway. It wasn't bad it was good dry snow and between using a broom and shoveling it took us no more than 15 minutes to clear the driveway and the back steps. The plows had been by but nothing was pushed up against the driveway yet. We left our gym bags and lunch boxes on the back deck. Then went across the street to get the milk, the gas for the snow blower and I decided at the last minute to get a soup chicken and some barley. Mario was napping and Maria was in the kitchen having coffee. Zachary had some eggnog and I had water. I asked 'How were my grandsons?' Maria says 'Good as always. It was a treat having them all here and all I had to do was heat up some soup. They had their lunches and drinks with them. They were in awe of the snow and Stephen being the expert told them to wait this is nothing. The three older helped me cleanup and went home to change. Andrea called and gave them orders and she was home like twenty minutes later.' Zachary says 'I'm surprised Stephen isn't here.' Maria says 'Not that he didn't try but was told if he wanted to stay at his Papa's tonight he had chores and had to take a nap.' We all laughed at that. I paid what I owed took the groceries including cookies she made that morning and Zachary the gas and we went home the snow was coming pretty good and it wasn't even 3pm. As I started the soup Zachary did laundry and cleaned out the lunch boxes. The soup would be done in a couple of hours. It would be just barley and the chicken no veggies in this. None of us like veggies with the barley. There was nothing left to do except wait for the soup. I asked 'What do you want with the soup?' Zachary says 'Grilled cheese unless you want to have the chicken from the soup.' I say 'No I want to make chicken salad tomorrow with the chicken. Grilled cheese it is.' Zachary came and sat on my lap and I nuzzled his neck. I look at the clock and was surprised that Stephen hadn't called yet and was debating whether to take Zachary upstairs for fast one. He must have felt me getting hard because he ground his butt into my crotch. Just then the phone started ringing and Zachary laughed hard. No surprise it was Stephen. Stephen says 'Papa I can sleep over. What clothes should I bring? I say 'Bring a couple of sets of long johns, your snow pants, hats, gloves and a hoodie and of course socks. You have underwear and pajamas here.' Stephen is repeating everything to his Mother. I ask 'Are you eating supper home or eating here?' I hear him ask Andrea where he is eating and she tells him seeing she probably won't see him till Sunday she wants them to have together tonight. Surprisingly he says Okay and tells me 'I am coming after supper.' I say 'You call and we will come and get you when you are ready.' I hang up and I say to Zachary 'He must have picked up on the fact that he wasn't expected back till Sunday and figured let me keep quiet. He listens to DJ. You have to ask him later why he didn't come for supper.' Zachary says 'Okay now let's go downstairs. We can't do it on his bed he picks up the sex smell.' We go downstairs and get on the couch with Zachary on my lap. It isn't long before we are both naked and Zachary is riding my dick. Even in that positon he has a grip on me. I swear I think he tries to make us morph into one person. I whisper 'Are you comfortable do you want to get on your back?' He moans 'I am fine.' I smirk 'But you are doing all the work.' He replies in short breathes 'Am I complaining now shut up and fuck.' It isn't long before he shoots all over my chest and I fill his insides not long after. We stay there till I soften and pop out. Then we both run and take a fast shower just to clean up fast we will be showering again later. Zachary washes the clothes we had on and I start to finish off the soup. He helps me put the soup through a sieve to get rid of the fat and grease and then helps me debone and pick through the chicken for the salad and I leave some in the broth then throw the barley in. I bag up the bones scraps for the outside trash to get rid of it when we go get Stephen. The phone rings and I tell Stephen to give us ten minutes to get there. There is a good 4-5 inches of snow and it is coming down so hard you can't see the end of our street. Zachary stays to sweep off the back deck and make a path to the back door and from the steps to the street. The plows have only gone by once since we came home. I cut through Mario's backyard and Stephen is outside with his Dad who is also sweeping off the back steps and making a path to their garage and back yard. Stephen isn't in the snow but under the porch roof. I say 'Hell-o and let's get a move on it is coming down good.' The wind is starting to pick up a little. I take his two backpacks and we both say goodnight to Sr. and leave. Stephen is enjoying walking in the snow and says 'Papa look don't the candles in all our houses make it look like Christmas.' I answer 'It does but good thing all the lights are down or they will be there till Easter.' That makes Stephen snort. We go inside and Zachary helps him get his coat and things off. I ask 'What the hell did you pack?' Stephen laughs 'Everything you told me.' I say 'Your socks and pants are wet. Let's get your shower out of the way.' Stephen says 'Wait I have to put my gloves, hat, and boots by the radiator remember like last year. Can someone hang my jacket down by the furnace?' Zachary says 'I will when I bring mine and Jared's down.' Stephen laughs 'Jared. Come on Jared help me bring my stuff upstairs.' I swat him on the butt and say 'I'll give you Jared.' We go up and he dumps out the backpacks. First off I grab the second pair of boots and the bib snow pants he has and brings them downstairs. I say 'Zachary go up and help him. I have to go to the bathroom.' Zachary heads upstairs and I hear him say 'Bud how long are you staying? You have enough clothes for a week.' I don't hear anything else after I close the door. When I come out they are still upstairs and I hear them laughing and talking. I go up and there are clothes piled on the bureau and ask 'What is going on?' Stephen says 'Papa I need a bigger bureau there isn't room for all my clothes.' I answer 'Stephen you don't need to keep winter clothes here you only stay a night or two. Plus you need these things at home.' Stephen says 'My Mom says to keep a set or two of thermals here in case it gets cold. I have plenty that were Eric's and Stuart's.' I say 'Okay you have room for them but what are all these other things. Are you moving in?' Stephen says 'Papa don't be funny. I am staying till Sunday.' I say 'You are?' Stephen says 'I ate supper with everyone so I could stay here till then. I heard Mom tell Dad.' I say 'AHH I see but there are still a lot of clothes for two days.' Stephen says 'Papa we are going to be out sledding and building a snowman and stuff and I need extras in case I get wet.' I say 'I'm sure Zachary will help you make room for two sets of thermals. But everything else is going back home.' Stephen says 'Okay. Should I leave gloves and hats here? Look I have plenty these were Eric's and DJ's.' I say 'That is a good idea but they belong downstairs give them to me.' Stephen says 'I have three hats still home and a lot of gloves. There are some even at Noni's that were Zachary's.' I say 'Let's get you in the shower. We haven't eaten supper yet.' He is undressed in a flash and Zachary takes his clothes downstairs. I get him in the shower and he is jib-jabbering away. He says 'Papa the plows have only gone by two times since the snow started. While you were downstairs Zachary and I looked out the window and you can hardly see the candles in Noni's window and you can't see ours at all. Papa help me with my hair hurry my eye is burning.' Disaster avoided he finishes and I remind him to wash the 'man parts' good. He rinses and Zachary is there with a hot towel. Zachary says 'I put two sets of thermals away in oyur drawer and the rest of the clothes can stay on the top of the bureau till you go home.' Stephen says 'Thanks' as he runs past him with the towel wrapped around him. Zachary looks at me, smiles, and kisses me. I go in and ask 'By the way where are you sleeping?' Stephen says 'Here in my bed.' I ask 'With Zachary?' Stephen says 'Maybe but I want to be in here when the plows go by. Can Zachary sleep with you? He has the nose whistle and you snore so maybe you two should sleep together.' I laugh and say 'I don't snore.' Stephen says 'Yeah okay you always say that. But if Zachary doesn't want to sleep with you he can sleep with me.' We go downstairs and neither one of us want a grilled cheese we can have them tomorrow but we both get two big bowls of soup. I ask 'Stephen do you want some soup?' He answers 'No I want cookies.' I ask 'What did you eat for supper?' He answers 'We had cheese raviolis and meatballs. Zachary where is the tin of cookies that Noni gave me they were in the backpack?' Zachary tells him on the refrigerator. I say 'You know this is barley soup.' Stephen says 'I will have it tomorrow we had it at lunch today and I had a bowl with my supper that Noni gave me.' I knew barley soup was his favorite. While we were eating I look at Zachary and say 'Stephen is sleeping in 'his' bed in 'his' room. Where do you want to sleep?' Stephen says 'You can sleep with me if you want but I am getting up every time the plow goes by.' Zachary answers 'You can sleep in 'my' bed in 'my' room. I will stay with Jared.' Stephen says 'Okay. Thanks.' After we eat I put the pot of soup and bowl of chicken outside on the deck to cool. There is a good four inches on the deck where Zachary had cleared it an hour ago. I ask 'What are we watching tonight?' Stephen says 'I got Green Acres, the hillbillies and that other show from Hooterville.' I roll my eyes 'Isn't there anything else we haven't seen?' Stephen says 'We could watch Christmas Vacation I watched that with DJ that was funny.' I say 'No let's watch the other one we saw Christmas Vacation one night this week.' I fibbed but really wasn't in the mood for that movie. Stephen is at the window and says 'Look the snow is coming straight down like rain.' Zachary asks 'How far can you see?' I can see that the candle in my window is lit but not that good it looks real little. Papa light the fireplace please.' Zachary says 'I want to go take my shower before the Green Acres episode goes on. I want to watch Lisa make her fruit cake.' He heads upstairs and Stephen follows me into the kitchen as I run out and get the soup and chicken. It is cool enough to put away. Stephen asks 'Papa are we having chicken salad tomorrow?' I say 'Yes' as I head down to the cellar. I take out English muffins that will be breakfast tomorrow with oatmeal. I come up and say 'Lets warm a towel up for Zachary.' After five minutes I give it too Stephen to run up. Stephen comes back down and joins me at the island. I had opened the tin of cookies and I ask 'Milk or eggnog?' Stephen says 'Milk, please.' I pour him his milk and say 'Tell me how has school been? How is your friend Jacob?' Stephen answers 'Papa it is like we never left. She has us doing the same things all over again. Jacob is ok, he had to go visit his grandparents for a couple of days, he had a bad time.' I asked 'Oh yeah how come?' Stephen says 'He told me his grandparents kept saying don't do that, don't touch that to his brothers and him. Then his Dad says 'Enough of this stuff only he didn't say 'stuff' and packed them all up and left right after supper and they came home early. Jacob and his brothers were happy. Jacob said his brother told him that his Dad told his Mom they never again going there.' I laugh and say 'Aren't you glad you have the grandparents you have.' Stephen says 'Yeah even Noni and Mario aren't like that.' Zachary comes down and says 'Are there any cookies left?' Stephen says 'Yeah Noni made cookies all morning. She says she knew we would be home for a week.' Zachary says 'I don't think a week but close.' I say 'Play checkers or tic tac toe till I come down.' I go up to shower and shave. When I come down they are playing checkers and I say 'Before we start watching the shows put on the weather. They still are calling for at least thirty inches more to the north of us and the wind is expected to pick up. They only watch the Green Acres episode neither wanted to watch the other two shows. Then Stephen went through what shows he left here and decided on Shrek's Christmas and The Walton Homecoming. I told him to put Shrek first thinking by the time that would be over he would be ready for bed. I was right and when I told him it was 8:30 he wanted to go to bed. Zachary had already nodded off. I turned off the tree and the fireplace. Stephen went up to brush his teeth and head to bed. Zachary went up and told Stephen goodnight while I locked up downstairs. Stephen was looking out the window when I went in to tuck him in. I ask 'Do oyu want me to leave the candles on? He answered 'Please.' I say 'Here is a pair of socks put them on when you get up to look at the plows I don't want you catching cold.' Stephen says 'I will.' He gets into bed and I kiss him goodnight and I think he is asleep before I even get into my bed. Zachary turns to me and says 'Is Stephen asleep?' I answer 'Yes but I think I will get up when I hear the plows to go in there with him.' Zachary continues 'I'm glad this is a short week. The Christmas shutdown went to fast.' I laugh 'Just think in a little over a week we will have a three day weekend just for the two of us.' Zachary says 'Geez that happened fast. But it is Jan. 5, 2023.' I answer 'See the days are already going by.' Zachary says 'Maybe it is cold enough up there for us to go ice skating.' I reply 'I don't know but we will bring our skates anyway.' We kissed a few times then he turned over and we spooned. I glanced at the clock it was 9:00 a late night for all of us. I woke up and looked at the clock it was a little after 3am. It would be the normal time for us to get up anyway. I got up and pissed I looked in on Stephen and he was under the covers, his socks were right where I left them so evidently he never got up. I went and looked out the window it was still snowing not heavy and the street didn't look like it was plowed. I couldn't tell how much snow was out there. I went back to bed, put my arms around Zachary and fell asleep. When I awoke at 6:30 it was still dark out and I can hear the wind blowing. During the last few hours Zachary had turned and his head was buried in my chest and his right leg was wrapped around my left calf. Somehow I was still holding him but don't remember a thing that is what happens when I am in a deep sleep. I tried to disengage myself I had to pee bad and he growled at me and turned over to his right side. I kissed his neck and whispered in his ear 'I love you my little stud.' He moaned and smiled and buried himself under the covers. I got up pissed came back and put on sweats and thermal top. I went into Stephen's room and he was sleeping. I knelt down and looked out the window and it was snowing hard and the wind was blowing. From what I could tell by our vehicles and Mario's there was a good foot or so on them. No plows have gone by so they must be having trouble clearing the main roads. Stephen was like Zachary buried under his blankets and I took two fast pics to show him. I went down and put on the TV we have gotten about 18" which I had guessed. This was only the beginning the storm took longer to form and the heavy snow was coming. They upped the totals to 36" and more with drifting. The saving grace was this was going to all light fluffy snow. I grabbed a bottle of water and started the oatmeal. I left all the window candles on seeing it was a gray day. I heard the toilet flush upstairs and heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I hear 'Morning Papa.' I answer 'Morning grandson what are you doing up?' Stephen answers 'I was looking for you. The plows never went by and I slept the whole night.' I answer 'I know. I went in to check you a couple of times. You should go back to bed it is early.' Stephen says 'Papa will stay with me for a while?' I say 'I will once I get the oatmeal finished. Go up and I will be there soon.' Just as I said that we both heard a plow and Stephen ran up the stairs. The plow went by slow just down the middle of the street and pushed the snow into the Water Co. land. He turned around and did Mario's side then came back down and did my side. I could hear Stephen whisper 'Wow look at the snow.' I finished up the oatmeal and went up and he was still at the window. I say 'Bud I don't think they will be back for a while. Listen you can hear them on your street now.' Stephen says 'Papa look it is snowing hard you can't see my house.' I say 'It is going to snow for a long time the storm is only half over. Come on get in bed see if you can sleep a little more. Damn your feet are getting cold. Come on under the covers.' Stephen hops into bed and gets under the covers after I warm his feet. I rub his back and he asks 'When can we go sled riding?' I answer 'To be honest maybe tonight but I don't think before tomorrow morning. It depends when the snow stops and they clear the streets and how long it takes us to snow blow around here.' Stephen says 'Oh.' I say 'You still have two days after today to go sledding it is only Friday. Let's wait and see what happens.' Stephen says 'Okay.' I can tell by the answer he is dosing. I wait ten minutes and ease myself off the bed. I enter my bedroom and get rid of my sweats and slide into bed. I slide my boner under Zachary's hairless balls and he moans. I kiss the back of his neck and he says 'Hmmm what time is it?' I whisper 'A little after seven.' He says 'It is still dark out.' I answer 'Yes and snowing like a bitch. I think this is going to be a day we may be stuck inside. Stephen just fell back to sleep the plows just went by and there is good 16-18" out there now so we are only half way there as far as what they are saying we will get.' Zachary says 'I was hoping we would be sledding by lunch.' I snicker 'So did Stephen. Just think you and him can watch TV all day.' Zachary says 'I'm going to sleep a little longer what are going to do?' I say 'I'm restless I can't stay in bed I am wide awake unless we are going to do something.' Zachary laughs 'I know, that is so you but not with Stephen right next door.' I kiss him and get up and get dressed and head downstairs. I pull out the bowl of chicken to shred and make the chicken salad. I am hungry and grab an orange to tide me over. I figure if a plow doesn't go by nine I will wake Stephen up then. I put on coffee and go watch the news. The state roads are deserted basically everyone is home. They are still calling for 30-36" by the time it ends which they claim will be by 1pm. It is 8am it is going to have to snow a lot in the next 5 hours. I hear the plows coming down the street but I don't hear Stephen get out of bed. Then all of sudden I hear him hit the floor and go to the window. I go upstairs to join him. We watch the plow go up and down the street. The snow is coming down so hard you would think it was rain. Stephen says 'Papa when I grow up I want to drive as snow plow.' I say 'You can if you want you can buy a pickup truck and put a plow on it. Are you hungry?' He laughs 'I will be as soon as I go to the bathroom. I gotta go but I am waiting till the plowing is finished.' After the plow heads up the street for the last time he runs to the bathroom. I go down to reheat the oatmeal and make his English muffin. I can hear him stop in my room on his way down. Stephen says 'Papa, Zachary is still sleeping all you see is the top of his hair.' I give him his juice and oatmeal and muffin. I say 'He isn't the only one who sleeps like that,' and I take out my phone and show him the pics I took not long ago. Stephen laughs and says 'Papa that's me.' I say 'See you do it too.' Stephen asks 'When is he getting up? What are we going to do today?' I answer 'We will let him sleep a little longer and there isn't too much we can do until the snow stops.' Stephen points to the window and says 'Papa look it is still coming down heavy.' I ask 'Are you bored? Do you want to go home to be with your family? I can take you.' Stephen looks at me 'Papa what makes you say that? This is like when I was here last winter with the snow and everything.' I say 'I just thought last year you were stuck here this time you have a choice.' He got of his chair and hugged me and says 'Papa I am always happy when I am with you.' I rub the top of his head and kiss it and answer 'Me to now go and finish eating.' Stephen says 'I'm done for now I'm going to wait till Zachary eats and have another muffin.' Then he polishes off his remaining oatmeal. I say 'Let's go watch TV. We can see when the snow will end.' We go into the living room and Stephen turns the tree on and says 'Papa light the fireplace.' I do that and we catch the weather nothing has changed since I watched it last. There is plenty of video of empty state highways. Stephen looks out the window and says 'I can just see Noni's tree lit and can hardly see my house.' I ask 'What do you want to watch?' Stephen says 'Papa your old home movies.' I say 'Don't you get tired of watching them?' He answers 'I like watching the Christmas parts of it. I like watching Uncle Anthony and your Mom and Dad with you.' I have to keep myself from tearing up as I get the DVD and set it up. The house phone rings and I tell Stephen to get it. It is DJ checking up on Stephen to see what he is doing. I am happy about that. I can hear them talking and laughing and after about ten minutes Stephen says 'Papa, DJ wants to talk to you.' I ask 'What are you doing? Do you want to come over for breakfast or later on, you are welcome to. DJ says 'No Papa it is snowing too hard and believe it or not I do have homework. Our teachers told us to check the school's portal for assignments.' I laugh 'Well you can thank Covid for that with all the remote learning two years ago. But also look at it that it might count as a school day so you guys can get out early. Winter is just starting.' Stephen says 'Papa he is still in bed like Zachary.' DJ hears him and says 'I am, the bed is warm and I am watching the snow come down and I called because I kind of missed Stephen.' I say 'I know but you can't compete with snow plows.' DJ says 'I know he told me all about them.' I whisper 'Listen a word of advice crack the window a little if you are going to do you know what. The smell lingers especially if it is more than once.' Then I laugh. DJ says 'Papa if it was anyone else who said that I would go 'Ewwww' but thanks.' I say 'I'm only talking from experience and your brother has a good nose.' We both laugh and say goodbye. I ask 'What did DJ have to say?' Stephen answers 'Papa he wanted to know what I was doing and if we went outside and how Eric and Stuart were videoing the snow. He told me don't go out alone in the snow I will get lost.' I was going to ask him again if he wanted to go home but he was his own person he would tell me. The phone rang again and I told him to get it. It was my brother Anthony. Stephen is laughing and saying 'Uncle Anthony you called the right house I am staying with Papa. Yes I am staying because I can see the plows from here I can't from home. I am watching you and Papa doing things at Christmas. Uh-ugh I am watching them again. I like to watch the Christmas parts. Zachary and I watched Lisa last night make a fruit cake, no she didn't shoost anything in the Christmas show. Okay I will see you later. Papa, Uncle Anthony wants to talk to you.' I get on the phone and Anthony says 'What are you guys doing? I answer 'Zachary is still sleeping. Stephen and I just had breakfast and watched the plows go by twice and now he is watching our home movies. Anthony asks 'He really likes them doesn't he?' I laugh 'Yeah he gets a big kick out of them especially the Christmas parts. What are you doing?' Anthony answers 'I am the only one up. Everyone else wants to sleep in. Where do you guys go sledding? I answer 'At the kids school there is a big hill in the back. The park has two big hills but is generally too crowded for young kids. The school is good for young'uns and tweens. I figure I will take Eric and Stephen the other two will want to go to the park with their friends.' Anthony says 'Okay good to know. Can we come with you guys?' I say 'Of course. We usually walk.' Anthony says 'They are still calling for at least 36".' I say 'I know. I hope this isn't a precursor of what this winter is going to be like. I don't know if we will go before tomorrow. It depends on when it stops and how soon we get everything cleared away. You can drive here then we can walk to the school. I don't think know how it is at night there. I don't know what they have lit.' Anthony says 'Okay talk later.' I say 'Do you want to go and wake up Zachary?' Stephen answers 'In a minute. Can you stop this? It is right before Thanksgiving then it will be Christmas.' I stop the dvd for him and he heads upstairs. I yell 'Tell him it is almost 9.' Stephen says 'Okay.' I start making English muffins and reheating the oatmeal. I hear laughing and a few minutes later Stephen comes down. I ask 'Is he getting up?' Stephen says 'Yeah I mean yes he has to go to the bathroom.' I ask 'What was the laughing about?' Stephen says 'My friend Jacob showed me a trick his brothers do on one another and I tried to do it on Zachary.' I ask 'Did it work?' Stephen says 'Not really but it made him jump. Eric and I are going to do it on Stuart if he ever starts on us again.' I ask 'What about DJ?' He answers 'We haven't been able to yet.' I ask 'Are you going to tell me what you did?' Stephen says 'Let him tell you I have to go to the bathroom.' Hearing that I got a bowl for Stephen knowing he would probably eat again. Zachary came down and hearing Stephen in the bathroom he gave a kiss and rubbed my butt then sat at the island. I gave him his oatmeal and two halves of an English muffin. Stephen comes out nudges him and. I gave him a half of muffin and a small bowl of oatmeal. I sit and say 'Is someone going to tell me the trick?' Zachary says 'I was sleeping minding my own business and I felt like wind blowing around my head and I turned then I felt something wet going in my ear like it was a tongue. Ewwww.' Stephen snorted and almost choked on his oatmeal and says 'You really jumped.' Zachary says 'Wait payback is a bitch. You will know how it feels when it is done to you.' Stephen laughs and says 'Papa won't let you do it to me.' Zachary says 'Not if he doesn't know. I can get up and do it after he falls asleep.' Stephen says 'That's not hard with the way he snores.' They both laugh.' I say 'Hell-o I'm sitting right here.' They laugh even harder. Zachary says 'That was good. Who taught you that?' Stephen says 'My friend Jacob and then I told Eric but you are the first person I tried it on. Eric and I are going to do it to Stuart and DJ.' Zachary asks 'How much snow so far?' I say 'At least two feet by now it hasn't let up since we have been up.' Stephen says 'Zachary the plows came by two times.' Zachary says 'I never heard them. What are we going to do today?' I answer 'Not much of anything till it stops snowing.' Zachary says 'I guess I will do my chores after I eat.' Stephen says 'I can help.' Zachary says 'Stay with Jared it won't take me long to clean the bathrooms and make the beds and see what laundry there is no more than forty minutes. You can help me Sunday that is the big cleaning if you are still here.' Stephen says 'Okay I will.' We finish eating watching the news and what it was like all over the state. After breakfast Zachary headed upstairs and Stephen and I took care of the dishes. I asked 'Do you want to get dressed?' Stephen says 'No not until we are going outside.' The phone rang and it was Andrea and Stephen talked to her then I did. When Zachary came down Stephen says 'I think we should call Noni.' Zachary says 'Okay' and put his phone on speaker and they both talk to her.' I can hear Maria say 'Stephen don't you go out alone the snow is almost as high as you.' Stephen says 'I won't Noni and DJ told me the same thing. The snow was hitting the windows and it looked like it was pouring rain but it was just heavy snow and luckily still dry. There wasn't much wind so hopefully no drifting. While they were watching TV I went out and moved some snow from the back door. It was light but a good 20" I made a path to the grill and one to the stairs of the deck. The other two didn't even notice I was outside until I was almost finished. When I came in I was covered in snow. The two of them helped me get my coat and shoes off. Zachary took my coat and hoodie and brought them downstairs; Stephen took my gloves, hat and shoes by the radiator. Stephen says 'Papa your sweatpants and socks are wet too. Why did you go outside?' I answer 'I'm going up to change right now. The snow was getting to high and I didn't want to worry about not being able to open the door.' Stephen says 'Wow it is a real blizzard. Do you think Noni and my family will get stuck inside?' I say 'No there are roofs over their doors. The snow won't even get close to them just like my front door.' Stephen says 'Oh.' I come back down from changing and the three of us are on the couch. Geez it is inly 10:30 in the morning. We are watching the local news and basically no one is out on the roads around the state. I text Charlie and ask how he is doing with all of this. Charlie asks if he can call and have a three way with Anthony also. I answer he has to set it up. Two minutes later my phone rings. I go into the kitchen not to disturb the other two that are now watching 'Green Acres' that they found on one of the channels. I ask 'Charlie how are you doing? Have oyu prepared for this?' Charlie laughs 'I bought two shovels and got some ice melt last week at Lowe's and I have plenty of food. I have never seen this much snow in my entire life, actually I have never really seen snow, sleet yes this no.' Anthony says 'Are you alone?' Charlie laughs 'No I'm not but this is going to be the last hurrah with Jr.(Sebastian).' Anthony asks 'Where is he?' Charlie answers 'Taking a nap he went out and shoveled twice. We have a good three feet already.' Anthony says 'What do you mean the last hurrah?' Charlie whispers 'Hold on a minute. I want to make sure he is sleeping.' He comes back and continues 'He got hired at Uncle Jared's shop and will be working a regular five day week plus overtime. He asked me if I would sell this house and move down there. I told him flat out No, I'm not quitting this job or selling this house. He then asked if I would commute that he would buy something I told him No again. I told him he is welcome to spend weekends up here but I am not ready for a serious relationship and if that is what he is looking for then feel free to pursue one.' Anthony says 'Damn you are just like your Uncle Jared and by the way why are you being quiet, Jared?' I laugh 'Charlie I knew he was being hired and I also knew how you felt about him and it wasn't my place to say one thing or another and if you were serious about what you told me this would be your way out.' Anthony says 'Ok what did I miss here?' I laugh again 'The short version is Sebastian is old school, he is the provider and Charlie is to take care of everything else plus his career.' Anthony says 'Good luck to him he may have to go back to the old country to find someone like that.' Charlie says 'I basically told him that. So we are ending on friendly terms. His mind is focusing on the new job.' I say 'I'm sorry it didn't work out for you.' Anthony says 'Me too.' Now Charlie laughs 'Don't be it was a good fun while it lasted. I'm not sad about this at all.' We talk a little more and I say 'Anthony the boys are watching Green Acres.' He answers 'So am I it is on now.' The three of us laugh and hang up.' I go in and look out the living room window, it is beautiful outside. Stephen is right it is just like Christmas. During a commercial the other two came and stood by me looking outside. Stephen says 'Papa we will be able to make a real big snowman.' I answer 'This year you have your own yard to build one and your brothers to help.' Zachary says 'Stephen you can build one in everyone's yard.' Stephen says 'Yeaah!' I say 'It looks like we will be inside for most of the day. What do you want to do?' Stephen answers 'Nothing but lay around and watch TV and look at the tree and stuff.' Zachary says 'The same for me let's enjoy this once it stops we will be busy.' I say 'Okay what are we watching?' Stephen says 'Zachary hasn't seen the old movies in a long time. Let's watch them first.' I moan 'You just saw them an hour ago.' Stephen says 'Zachary didn't. Zachary don't you want to see them?' Zachary says 'I haven't seen them in a long time but I just want to watch the holiday parts. You know Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.' I say 'I give up. Put it on again.' The three of us are on the couch. Zachary at one end and I at the other Stephen is between us. Stephen says 'Zachary do you think Papa snored when he was little?' Zachary answers 'Ask Uncle Anthony he would know.' I start to say something and they both interrupt and say 'We know you don't snore.' Then they both went into fits of laughing. At the end of the dvds I get up to go to the bathroom and they start watching 'The Walton's.' By the time I get back they are both dozing off and I go upstairs and get on Stephen's bed hoping to catch a nap myself. I slept about an hour but it is still only a little after 1pm. From what I can see from the bed the snow is still coming down kind of heavy and the wind has picked up a bit. I look at my phone and there were two alerts one for heavy snow and white-out conditions and they increased the snow amount to 40" for us. The snow was not expected to end till dusk. That meant there will be no sled riding today and maybe not even tomorrow if the streets aren't cleared. I am restless and get up decided to go clear off the deck and steps again. I creep downstairs the two of them are still napping. I quietly get dressed and go outside. I have another foot or so to shovel. It is still light and easy to move but is starting to drift at the other end of the deck. It took me a good half hour to clean off the deck the stairs and a path to the grill and cleaned off that again. When I got inside they were both awake waiting for me with coffee and cookies. Stephen helped me off with my boots and Zachary took my jacket and hoodie and brought them downstairs to dry. Stephen took my hat and gloves and put them on the radiator. I went upstairs to change my sweats and thermal then came back down. I sat at the island and Stephen sat next to me. I asked 'Is anyone hungry yet?' Stephen says 'I just want a halo I can wait' as he munched on a cookie. Zachary says 'Same here I'm going to have some fruit too.' Stephen asks 'Papa is it cold out?' I answer 'Not really the wind comes and goes. But the snow has not lightened up at all.' Stephen laughs 'You kind of looked like a snowman when you came in.' Zachary says 'I see where they have increased the snow totals. Charlie should have 46-48" when it is done.' Stephen asks 'Papa how much is out there now?' I answer 'I measured with the yard stick and it is only 28" so far.' Zachary adds 'It isn't supposed to stop till around 5pm.' I say 'Well we won't be going sledding tonight that is for sure.' Stephen says 'Awww.' Then we hear the plows and he heads upstairs. He is no sooner upstairs and he calls for us to come up. Zachary kisses me and says 'Finish your coffee I will go up and stay with him.' I can hear the two of them talking and laughing and the plows were taking their time going up and down the street. Stephen says 'Papa look out the window this truck is huuge!!' I look out the front window as the truck is making its second sweep. They are using the big dump trucks now the smaller trucks are probably keeping up with the roads that have been plowed. Hopefully it will be like last year and he can see the pay loaders removing the snow. There is a lot of snow out there. I go up and they are still looking out the window. Maria and Mario are looking out their door and Stephen is waving but the snow is so heavy they can't see him and then they do and wave back. Stephen says 'Papa it really is like Christmas with all the trees still up and the candles lit. Why can't it snow like this at Christmas. Next year I will have my small tree in here and can we look again for a tree before we eat.' I answer 'Zachary will help you look while I get supper ready. If it snowed like this on Christmas Eve we all would be stuck in our own houses. You wouldn't see me, Zachary, Maria, and Mario, your grandmother or Uncle Anthony.' Stephen says 'Oh I didn't think of that well maybe it can snow like that on Christmas day.' I say 'What about the guys driving the plows they would have to give up their holiday to go to work.' Zachary laughs 'They would get paid triple time to go to work. Geez I would do it you can pay for your whole Christmas in one good storm.' Stephen says 'What is triple time mean?' Zachary says 'Stephen suppose you get paid ten dollars for a job well with triple time you would get paid thirty dollars.' Stephen says 'Wow I would do it too. I laugh and say 'The boy who loves Christmas would spend it working.' Stephen says 'Yeah I would. I could buy a lot of stuff with that.' I say 'You are my grandson. I would do the same thing.' Let's go downstairs and get something to eat.' While Zachary and Stephen are looking on the laptop for 6-7' trees I get supper ready. It doesn't take long to heat up the barley soup and make chicken salad sandwiches. Stephen can't find a tree that he likes or will fit in his room that isn't on backorder, he is getting cranky. Zachary says 'Bud it is only January you have ten months to find something. By that time there may be something you will like better or they may have newer models.' That seemed to pacify him and I smiled to myself that Zachary will be a great big brother and dad someday. We eat and watch the news and weather on the laptop. The snow will not be stopping till at least 8pm for us. I decided to go out once more before I shower and to shovel the back deck and this time in front of the garage so there will no problem getting the snow blower out tomorrow morning. After supper is cleaned up Andrea sends a video of my other three grandsons shoveling their walk and driveways. She says 'Sr. figured they slept most of the day and so that they would be up early tomorrow he put them to work so they would sleep tonight. It took the three of them a little over an hour to clear everything down to the pavement and hopefully there won't be that much tomorrow. They also cleared Mario's back steps and deck and in front of his shed to get his snow blower out.' Seeing they were finished I showed Stephen and Zachary the video. Zachary says 'As long as all the boys live there Sr. will never have to buy a snow blower.' Stephen says 'The snow is high I would be stuck.' I say 'Yes it is just past your waist.' Stephen laughs 'My butt would freeze. I don't have hair all over me like you guys.' Zachary laughs 'How do you know that?' Stephen smugly answers 'Hell-o you and DJ sleep naked and I saw Papa in the shower once.' I say 'Find something to watch we aren't going anywhere tonight.' I'm going to go shovel around fast after I give Stephen his shower.' Stephen moans 'Why Papa I haven't been anywhere or done anything?' I say 'Good hygiene you have been in those pajamas for twenty-four hours. Let's get it out of the way.' He beats me upstairs and gets in the shower as he is getting undressed I say 'Tomorrow morning when you wake up if I am not in bed or downstairs I will be outside shoveling and snow blowing. Ok?' Stephen answers 'Okay. Will Zachary be with you?' I answer 'I don't know but if he is just watch us from the window.' Stephen says 'Okay I will be okay.' I go out and it doesn't take me long to clear the deck, steps and a path to the garage door. I go in and no one is there to help me get my jacket and stuff off. They are engrossed in what they are watching. Then I hear the movie stop and they both come into the kitchen to help. I tell them to go back I am alright and going up to shower. I take care of my wet things and jump into a hot shower. I am horny from the cold and the exercise and squeeze one out fast in the shower. I finish washing rinse and as I am taking one final rinse and turning off the water. I hear 'Papa I left hot towels on the counter.' Stephen announces from the hall. Then he giggles 'I saw your naked butt.' Then he takes off downstairs. I laugh out loud and think hopefully that is all he saw. I go downstairs and they are watching old Disney Christmas cartoons. My kids had this on VHS. Now I realize why they are so quiet. I sit on the couch and Stephen comes and snuggles up against me. I say 'Some of these cartoons are older than me.' Stephen says 'I know you can tell by the color. But Papa they are good they are real Christmassy. I ask 'Did you see the ones with Santa Claus yet?' Zachary says 'No we were watching the newer ones first. We figured you would like the older ones.' Next were the two I was looking forward to myself. 'Santa's Workshop' and 'The Night Before Christmas'. Stephen got real quiet. I knew these were going to be on his replay list. When the flap on the little boy's pajama came down he snickered. When they were over he says 'Zachary I saw Papa's butt when I brought his towels in. He was bending over washing his feet. Ewww all you guys have hairy butts, does that mean I am too.' I say 'I don't know you will have to wait to see.' Stephen shrugged it off and that was the end of it. Zachary goes up to take a shower and Stephen and I watch 'The Weather Channel' the snow is supposed to stop around ten. Hopefully the plows won't come by till the morning so he sleeps all night. Stephen yawns and I suggest bed and surprised he agrees to it. I turn the tree, fireplace and the candles downstairs off. Stephen asks me to leave the candles on in his room so he can look at them with the snow coming down. I tuck him in, kiss him goodnight and leave socks for him to put on. Zachary yells 'Goodnight' as he is going to our room. I go down finish locking up and head up to bed. I get undressed and slide under the covers next to Zachary. He turns and faces me and says 'Just think if this was a Sunday we would be home for two days.' I laugh 'I thought you liked going to work?' Zachary says 'I do but Stephen is rubbing off on me. I wish we could have more time off for Christmas.' I answer 'The longer you are there the more vacation time you will have and you can take time like I do and next Christmas I promise we won't spend that much time in New York.' We kissed and both our boners were touching head to head. I whispered 'I was so horny I squeezed one out in the shower.' Zachary says 'Geez I did too.' I laughed 'I love my grandson but tomorrow at some point we are going to try to get some time alone to do it.' Zachary giggled and turned over and with his ample solid ass grinded into my crotch. I slipped my hardon between his cheeks under his balls. We both fell asleep that way. JJ I want to thank all of you for all the encouraging comments it means a lot. Thanks.
