    The shoveling wasn't nearly as bad today as last time.
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    No, and the sun is really strong today, so it helps with the clearing efforts. We cleared the driveway and walk earlier, and there are many dry spots already. DH and I are going to head out - despite the fact that our street is unplowed, many have driven down it, so it's passable. The Audubon Nature Center is open - we need to stock up on birdseed! They done cleared us out! My afternoon conference call has been postponed. Yay! I get to procrastinate on my report and more work related items a little longer. It is going to be SOOOO hard to wake up at 6 a.m. tomorrow!

    Zen, it sounds like the Tuesday/Wednesday storm really socked you up there! Hope you are doing ok. The sun is working some magic here but we have yet to see a plow.

    I've dug out the sidewalks and the car and the driveway and the deck. On to the back door and the downspouts. I knocked some snow off the roof while I was on the deck. Maybe I could leave the backdoor - but somehow I just think that 4 feet of snow melting against the back wall of the house & door might be asking for it.

    I guess my break is almost over.

    I hope that you're able to get out safely and enjoy your vacation; think I remember you posting that you're going skiing...so, it may be strange to say this, but I hope that it's snowy whereever you're going too!

    I spent 2.5 hours shoveling earlier. I dug out my car and then helped 2 neighbors dig out their cars. As I was helping my one neighbor, 7 and her DH drove by. They stopped to chat but since my 2 lane street is now only one lane, there was a car behind them so they had to leave.

    I am tired. I have that foggy head feeling - where I feel as if I cannot focus. Maybe I should get off of my work e-mail for fear that I send out an e-mail that I may regret later? I'm going to hop on the trainer for a while. What else is there to do?

    It's either time for a glass of wine or time to hit the trainer. I just snapped at my 13-yr-old daughter when she asked me why I hadn't mailed the Netflix DVDs. "UH...BECAUSE I JUST SHOVELED SNOW FOR 2.5 HOURS AND...I FORGOT."

    All my facebook friends in Colorado, Washington state, Utah, and Idaho are asking me to send them my snow so they can ski.

    Go for the wine. Drink it in the bathtub, preferably with bubbles.

    Yeah, thanks. We're heading to Colorado on Saturday for a week of skiing. I'd love to send them some of our snow!!! Chalking this up to one of life's little ironies.

    Pfunk...I vote for wine, too! 2.5 hours of shovelling is plenty of exercise! We stopped by the LBS to say "hey." It was a quiet place there.

    I ended up doing over an hour on the trainer - some intense hills. Why? Because my kids are driving me crazy. They are both mad at me and the dog (female) isn't happy with the snow so there's a lot of tense estogen in this teeny, tiny condo! Next time you drive by, 7, can you pick them up? Based on what I saw, Noah has plenty of space for 2 skinny, scrawny girls.

    I stopped by the shop the other day - after I sent that smart arse e-mail about them being closed on Sunday. The entire gang was in the back and they were thrilled that someone was coming in the shop - until they saw that it was me . Pepper jumped up and said, "We only opened the shop for Pfunk (both first and last names) and you don't even have the decency to bring your Madone in with you?!" It was noon and I was the first person to walk in the door.
