Not exactly sure.
Wife was on a company zoom meeting today. She noticed on one camera this gal was folding clothes and the next thing she saw this lady taking her shirt off and saw the twins!:oops::oops:

I told my wife I wish she was that that uninhibited…. Well, I wish I would have.;)
Was it an investment zoom? I have a few dollars that I could move.

5" to 11" of snow forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Well, that should be fun with me supposed to be in a walking boot.

Wishing I had test fired either Little Fran (the little Toro that could) or Big Chuck (the workhorse Toro). Don't think I even ran Chuck last year.

With the schedule of me and my husband, I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to get all gifts wrapped by Saturday. oi. Well, all gifts wrapped with minimal "injury" to my back. (Threw it out two Wednesdays ago, and JUST really turned the corner yesterday)

Couch sleeping tonight. Wife is sick.
Well, no couch. It was the recliner instead. Wife was on the living room couch before she went to bed (didn't feel like disinfecting that) so it would have been the basement couch and I didn't feel like wandering down there.

Hard to tell but maybe only 4 inches or so. Been waiting and no snow fairies have come to shovel my driveway. Being the oldest guy on the street seems to have no real benefits.

Time to find something sturdy for footwear that won't bend or flex so I can hobble out and shovel.

Unusual that the city has not plowed at all. Anytime we have plowable snow they are usually through the hood by 600 am. 1030 and no sign of a plow is quite atypical.

I perfected the fine art of reclining chair sleeping this summer during the worst of my bulged disc thingie.

Sorry, you are going to have to get a bit older before I'm there. We have our hands full with a couple in their 70s with health issues right now.

Shoveled. DND. Only 4" - 5" or so. Light and fluffy so not heart attack stuff but may have set back broken bone healing some.

City got here to do alley and street with big pickup with blade. Light stuff and easier for pickup to do the dead end street and dead end alley.

For those who miss seeing Perry Ellis in action, maybe this cap is how you can keep him close.

I opened the link expecting to see something more of this vintage:

I shoveled last year with about 1 & 1/4 arms. Fortunately the bad arm was the left so it just served as kind of a fulcrum and the right arm did the majority of the work.

Test fired the snowblower (didn't have the right gas, had gas for my chainsaw, but that little amount of oil will be fine) and.....
