It's sort of like the mantra for hair washing of rinse, lather, repeat. Only it's dress, exit, shovel, re-enter, dry off, get warm, repeat. I shoveled snow at 5:30 this morning, when there was about 4-5" on the ground. I didn't do a thorough job because it was still coming down at a good clip. I came in, got warmed up, then went out again at 7:30 and shoveled another 3-4" from the same places I removed it from before. It was like a snowy déjà vu.
And it's still coming down at a decent pace, even though the forecast is only for 1-3" of the white stuff today. I don't mean to be a doubting Thomasina, but I think they're trying to give us false hope.
My neighbor drove by on his way to work. I asked, "When is this supposed to stop, and don't tell me spring." He smiled and replied, "Not soon enough."
He was right.
Anybody got any liniment?
Only 39 days to spring.
