13 degrees right now...still snowing pretty steady but is supposed to stop by 1100.
The drive is plowed, but I'll get back out later.
Only bummer was the strap I used to lift the plow on the Gator broke repeatedly. It was an old strap I found in the garage...reckon no loss.
The 4400 did the job though...no chains, just turf tires and I hope I didn't jinx myself by writing that.

The accumulation, so far, has exceeded the predictions...we have at least 12"...probably closer to 14".
Heading out...more later.

Heading out for more of what Roy :confused3: Just saw this ...that's why I ask

The phrase was "Heading out....more later".
That meant I was heading out to plow, and I would post more (about the weather) later.
No need to go get booze...I have a 12 pack and that will last the day.

done. Probably with my neck and back and wrist and back stitches doing snow for two hours was not the smartest thing to do, but it wasn't as bad as I thought. A nice cup of coffee, two Tylenol and a heated neck wrap and I'm sitting down, going nowhere, and maybe wrap a few presents.

I did fall on my butt once, the driveway is steep, there was sheet ice on part of it, and luckily it was a very slow motion event, I knew I was sliding so I just sort of sat down while holding on to the snowblower. And laughed at myself. And decided not to do that again.

Sunday is bills and pills day for me. I use one of those weekly organizers for pills so I don't screw it up. Sometimes it's hard to remember...did I or didn't I? then I start hurting iike crazy, and nope, I didn't. The pillbox organizer minimizes that. Assuming I remember to go to it each morning.
some days I think I need reminders for my reminders.

I put my Feather craft boat inside it yesterday so that boat will be comfortable this winter.

I have a 1957 Feather Craft. You don't see a lot of them anymore. I love how light it is. You can pick up the end of it by yourself. The same can be said for the Evinrude that came on it. You can pick up one end of it by yourself. But if you want to get it off the floor, it is better to have two folks lifting. I never got the old motor running, but I have hung on to it all these years. I do know a fellow who works on old stuff, but the cost has scared me away so far. Good luck with your shed. Glad you got the roof on before the snow came.

Drew pill box reminds me when young going in Grand Daddy's bathroom looked like drug store and swore that would not be me. Now seven pills a day and 14 day box filled up every two weeks, one of the big ones you know. So little we knew back then. Be careful about falling hard to heal at young age actually fall generally not so bad getting up is the killer

A bit more snow than what was forecasted here. 3 to 5 forcasted, we have at least 6. Haven't plowed yet, it is snowing pretty good, but I will start this afternoon. Otherwise, just gonna drink coffee for a bit.
