whew: digging out

Question: What does a full night of freezing rain, sleet and snow give you?

Answer: A ninety minute exercise in digging your way out to the curb - in a di minimus way, at that.

And that says nothing about the ice berm thrown up by the plow.  At least the precipitation stopped and it's above freezing - thirty six degrees feels like beach weather compared to what we've had.

Remember, dear readers, bend from the knees, don't hold your breath while you throw the snow, and take breaks.  I'd hate to see you drop of a heart attack.
