ostarellaWent out and did some shoveling - it wasn't as bad as I expected. The snow was dry, versus the wet kind, so it was very easy to shovel, even in the areas where I couldn't use my electric shovel. Even the "hard pack" from the plows wasn't too bad. I was out for not quite 2 hours, got the path shoveled from the front door to the road, and around to the back door (including an area for the dogs, which is a relief to them LOL). Then I walked down to the store and got my smokes - and after all that, only a few little thumps from the heart, so... I'm feeling GOOD! :D
Tomorrow and Sunday are supposed to be even warmer (almost hitting the freezing mark on Sunday) so I'm going to try and get the rest of the sidewalk out front done (about 100 feet) and get my truck dug out so I can make a trip up to the city and lay in some more provisions for the next big storm, whenever that comes.
So now I have the rest of the day to either continue my productivity or just be lazy. But considering all I have left to do in the house, and job hunting, and writing stuff - probably going for more productivity.
After a slow cigar and a hot cup of coffee... :D

Very easy to maneuver through the snow :D
My dad's old 8 horsepower self-propelled snowblower is in the garage, but it needs engine work. It used to give him a run for his money, though, so I'm not sure I could handle it LOL
