I Got Lucky. Someone with a Snowblower Did the Sidewalks, but the Other Five Hours Were All Lift & Hope to Find a Good Landing Place

I'm glad I did two rounds yesterday, trying to get some of the snow off the driveway before the freezing ran arrived. The winds cause very thick drifts, too, and so it took quite a while to get the white stuff off the driveway. I finished it, but I needed a two-hour rest before I tackled the street to driveway wall that the plows established. That was brutal. Chisel, break apart, lift, and throw. 

I am sore. Five hours of living that garbage will do it to ya, and the rumor is more is on its way this weekend. A Nor'Easterner. Joy. Can hardly wait. Not sure where we'll put it, but we've been here before. 

I did a class last night asynchronously, because the University shut down, but we are open for tonight, so it will be week 2 for The Literate Learner. I will have to stretch before teaching, as I'm afraid body parts will fall off of me after yesterday's heavy exercise. That is something...heavy snow, that is. 

Karal did not get a walk. We will try this week, but I can't imagine too many of the sidewalks have been cleared, and that will make for complicated terrain. 

Okay, Tuesday. Monday was spent in physical labor. Let's get back to the work week.

Ate Varsity Pizza again after a long, long while. I'm happy to see it is still open on the hill, and it was nice to meet Melissa and her...
