Forget about even trying to keep up with shoveling or plowing because the wind is at 30mph. Not looking forward to going home from work because that's when the physical work begins. Plow, Shovel and get all my heating wood to my elevated house on the lake/river.
Soooo ready for sand between my toes.
Yeah, visibility here was a few feet earlier this afternoon. This happened not far from here:

Got off work yesterday at 5pm. Took me 40 minutes to get home.
Start shoveling and plowing. Finish all the snow removal and making paths to the wood shed. Bring up loads of wood. It is now 740 PM.
The fire is near death. Resurrect the fire, do dishes.
Meanwhile, I hear my wife on the phone, who works from home, tell her client "I love winter".
I am like, I bet you do. [Reply]

Every single last mother fucker on the planet that "loves winter" doesn't lift a finger to do work outside in that shit. [Reply]
If I had my way, I would have moved to AZ, TX, or FL 3 or 4 years ago. Unfortunately, we live with my MiL who despite treating us like shit, doesn't understand that she'd probably kill herself doing something stupid if we weren't here.

Responsibilities suck.
She can move too. If she disagrees, there are plenty of gentle sedative pharmacological options that would allow you to get many miles down the road before she comes to....:-)
