Most of the snowfall was north of us, we got a dusting, not much of an event, I was hoping for a couple inches...The next possible snow day is forecast to happen in 3 days, on Thursday...

Ugh, it was 10°F this morning. Cleared the snow and tried something I always wanted to. I have a really powerful electric leaf blower and this is light fluffy frozen snow. Meh. It helped a little but didn't do that much so I guess I'll have to stick to the snowthrower & shovel method until I perfect my forcefields.
And, when your ass is thoroughly frozen that's a good time to thaw it in a hot tub, just saying ...........

I was just sitting in the hot tub watching a woodchuck go about its business from about 80 yards away. I take it as a good sign that we'll have nice weather soon.
Shortly after it disappeared over the ridge a surprisingly large beautiful red fox cruised around out back a while then followed Charles over the ridge too - he may be having a rough morning.

The critters and birds of the land have been out and about and it definitely feels like Spring. But today we're getting a powerful Northeaster and it's piling up fast out there.
I have to work 9-1 today and will have no problem getting there 4WD, the storm's supposed to be done by noon. Last time this happened nobody showed at the store at all so despite reassurances to the contrary if I get there and find it empty I will waste no further time.
More importantly I have a 3:30 appointment with an orthopedist. If he found the feathered shaft of a giant spear sticking out of my shoulder I wouldn't be surprised, that's what it feels like. My left arm isn't good for much right and I first hope the doctor still makes the appointment and I don't have to wait any longer. Bursitis, tendonitis, torn rotator cuff - something unpleasant that I won't like the answer to.

It's a million percent humidity for a couple of weeks now and very hot. Every afternoon we get soaking thunderstorms, forecast or not. Literally out of the blue like flipping a big switch. Very, very tedious after a while. You take the garbage out and come back in soaked to the bone whether it's raining or not.
Grass has been so thick and heavy I literally smoked the belts on the old lawn tractor and replaced them yesterday. I always keep spares and have had these for years. I'll be ordering another set this morning.

We're not much bothered by that storm except for warm humid air and some needed rain, but it's already Fall and looks it. Leaves are starting to change and I already have to go out with the blower and clean some up. I usually service the snow thrower and generator while it's nice out too. Not my favorite task but they are my best friends at times.
