23 here at MFW, at least the muddy driveway is driveable when frozen solid... I have to say out of the 126 hours on my tractor, the 7 or so trying to get my driveway and easement clear enough to get in and out were the least rewarding. Cold and bitter, and I'm afraid the driveway is a disaster that will need loads of gravel and many hours to repair.
This is also the LEAST fun snow ever as with 15" or so and big hills, my kids and I NEVER got to play in it. I did not get them until Friday evening, and it rained on the snow Saturday and Sunday it was refrozen hard as ice and was not much better... so NO SLED TRAILS...
I will quit complaining now (for the moment).
Got a big week here. My boss is really unhappy with me. Overall the numbers are down everywhere in my biz, but my terrible stressful disaster of a year has taken its toll and He clearly sees me as the weakest link, or blood in the water, or whatever, but it seems I am on a "Performance Improvement Required" type of plan for the first time in my life. I have chosen to look at this like I'm going to benefit from some extra training and will come out better for it.
The other thing is tomorrow is my first "mediation" session with my soon to be Ex and I will maybe get to learn what her demands are... maybe learn how difficult the NEXT stage of my life will be... Friday we will have been seperated for 11 months...
The good news is last week I booked my biggest order yet, just in time for the end of the quarter, My kids and I seem to be getting along well, I'm not living in someone's basement, and Spring is only 1 month away (from this Friday)!
I'm off to ST Louis tomorrow evening for a couple days of customer meetings. Nothing like some orders to improve my image with the Bossman...
Have a great week folks!
Get Well, Be well, & God Bless all-o-y'all
