I don't blame BLOOMBERG. I like him. But, I'm not a New Yorker.

I can't complain though I hate snow. I got my mail and my street plowed.

I hate snow too! I don't mind a few inches, but when it looks like you're travelling the Hindu Kush mountain range looking for the Abominable Snowman, then it's time to say, "wait a minute, here."

As to Bloomberg, I guess it dosen't matter if he's at fault or not.

He's a billionaire and has no worries in the world no matter what happens. Not so for the rest of us little guys and gals...

Shoveled today to help with the slow melt and clear off my back patio, and chip away at the mountain that I'm glad wasn't plowed into my mailbox or front walkway.

But... needed to clear away part of the mountain to allow mail truck easy access to box.

I don't feel wiry like steel afterwards, I just feel sore.

Yeah, soreness is part o' the job, that's for sure. It's compounded by the fact that it's mostly a seasonal activity, and many of us have to get back into shape for it by slowly breaking in, no thaving the luxury of being used to shovelling pre-season.

We still don't have any snow on the ground here....we did have a bad blizzard on New Year's Day which I unfortunately got caught in but all the snow melted following an heavy rain later than same night. But there is some snow forecasted for later in the week...

Uhhnn, yeh, who are you-ehn? ANOTHER STORM?? Right now, it's wet and been so for 2 hours, I have high hopes to stay in the "low accumulation" zone due to moisture and higher termps...

We had "epic" here in Monmouth County, New Jersey on December 26, happy frickin' nude yahr!!!

And we still haven't had enough snow here to shovel...5-10 cm forecasted for tomorrow though...and then I think it'll likely rain again (honestly I'm sick of all the dreary, depressing rain).

Yeah we got around 7 inches back on Wednesday on the 11 (after it was over that was the total) and as usual it wasn't big enough to worry about, but enough to cause some pains shovelling out. No driveway have I, but the townsfolk on my street usually respect others' parking rights.

And, our town DOT gets the plows close to the curb when noone is parked there, and gets rid of as much snow as possible, making it easier for us to dig out (but not too easy, mind you.) I hope this is the last storm for a while, a long while.

Another snowstorm. I just finished shoveling this wet, heavy, slippin' slidin' sh!t after 3 hours.

^ haha

One thing I've noticed so far up until today...the snow has been very dry. Up until the storm we have now (Jan. 26) it was like powder. Today it seems as if there's some measure of dewpoint to it, if that's what causes it. Right now it just switched over to a rain-snow mix and in general, it's just a big wet mess. I hope the hell that this is the LAST storm for awhile.

Patiently waiting for another foot of snow to fall overnight. Why can't this sh!t happen over the weekend?

Eh. I told everyone to quit their bit*hing. Don't like it, move.

Me personally, I LOVE it. Granted, I've had off since Monday night. But I work tomorrow. Should be interesting. I love the snow.

I'm still enjoying my early morning cups of tea sweetened with white honey while glancing at winterwonderland right outside my window.
I love snow and wish it would never go away

That's the spirit

We must have gotten an inch or so of snow last night. Hard to tell since it's still dark out.
