That's SO last page!
After half a century of shoveling snow I have finally caved - buying my first snow blower.
dclamp will be needing one of these in his new digs!
One of my boys has a hover board - I've never been on it and know a whole lot better then to see how badly I might fall!
How does the battery last in the cold?
Shoveling snow is never that smooth and easy for me. Right now, my walks are covered with an ice/snow mix. I was away for two weeks and didn't shovel (of course). By the time I got home, the snow was partially converted to ice. At this point, I think it's better to leave it as is, because if I were to remove the snow, I'd just have an ice coated sidewalk. As it stands, the ice bonded to the snow makes for pretty good, though uneven, footing.
Fortunately, snow is generally not a long term thing where I am. A few days of warm weather and the snow could all be gone. Then I can shovel the next round. Unfortunately, there is currently a freezing rain falling, so the walks will be in pretty odd shape by morning.
This, folks, is why drink and rollerskates don't mix:-

It gives you hairy feet?
It gives you hairy feet?
That was really weird. It took forever to post that, then it posted twice. If it wasn't the Post Race, I might actually remove the duplicate.
They were hairy already. I was Elijah Wood's foot double on Lord of the Rings. True Story.
Aw, rub some dirt on it, you'll be fine.

Quite unusually, I might actually have a use for one, too. It's currently snowing pretty hard, and is supposed to continue all day. We're still only at normal snow pack for this area, while northern Idaho is down around 80% of normal.
Out here, snow in the winter means water in the summer. At this point, we're doing ok, but the last few years has followed a solid November and December with a dry January and February. Hopefully this will keep on for a few more weeks.
Wut iz snoe?
Got about as much of it last night as I have ever seen in the Boise area. May get more today, too.
No snow here. In Brizzle we get Drizzle.
Happy Boxing Day - the day we celebrate our ability to convert data types into objects.
Or something like that.
That is absolutely why we celebrate Boxing Day.
I'm going to go convert an integer into an object, just for that.
