Snow

The ONLY reason I shoveled out my car and the driveway yesterday was because I thought I'd be going to work today! Had I known my place of employment would be CLOSED today, I would have waited until today to shovel since it will be going up to a balmy 37°F!!

You were probably better of shoveling yesterday since today it's had an extra day of freezing.

Oh, no. You did the right thing. At 37 degrees, you get that snow-sticking-to-the-shovel thing. When I started yesterday at 8:00 AM it was fairly easy to shovel. By 1:00 it was sticking to the shovel. I am really sore today too!

Okay, gotta get some work done today!!!

Really, I'm signing off.....

That's what Pam (or spray olive oil) is for -- to keep snow from sticking to the shovel!!

MDHillSlug, I was thinking an extra day of melting and evaporation would beat the extra day of freezing, perhaps? Most snowfalls, I don't bother to shovel; I just wait for it to melt! My house faces south, so my driveway and front sidewalk get full sun.

This snowfall... was a little much, and I really did think I'd have to be at work today, sooo.....

Ack, I got my license 6 months after I moved to Florida.
I learned to drive in the snow when I was 37. Not a good thing .
Never had an accident, but it did require getting an AWD car and some nice anxiety attacks. Two of the three houses I've lived in here were (are) on big hills.
