how to hold a shovel with a smile

We did indeed get A LOT of snow. That's okay. Cold cold cold = light and fluffy snow. That's why there's so much of it. But the upside is that it's not as painful to move

Light and fluffy is definitely easier to handle. While we got lake effect for two days straight, the same conditions applied and I was able to sweep the drive and walk way. In fact I think shovelling would have been difficult since it had the consistency of those tiny styrofoam balls that simply fly everywhere when you attempt to move them.

Like you Sunday is going to be interesting.

Couldn't just sweep, too deep, but the scoop-fling method is much preferred to the wedge-pull-omglift crap. :)

I gathered as much, given blizzard versus lake effect it was kind of a given. *g*

Three feet hereabouts....fluffy, but oh so very very cold that I don't even want to go outside. Good thing I have today off due to the effect(s) of the storm. *hugs*

It is basically up almost to my waist. SO MUCH SNOW. But yeah, the cold was part of what was making me wonder when I wanted to deal with it. We're still off today, too.

Being able to have the snowblower get everything except just around my car, I nip in and drag the crap out from around my wheels, and he comes back through and also blows that away... A++, would take that snow again.

It is one of life's great pleasures when someone else moves the snow for us. I still remember (and will never forget) the ritual of the snow plowing process at the old place. Not only does it make me appreciate the new place....it makes me want to kiss my garage. ;)

If there's more of it, I'll need some of your baked goods for sustenance!
