Contrariwise

Ha ha! I already had bread and milk, fortunately. ;-)

The reason you really need to get milk before a snowstorm is: you're going to make a LOT more hot chocolate than you usually do, and that goes through milk very quickly!

I was out there today shovelling for 3 hours. That's how long it took me to clear my car, and I also helped my neighbor shovel out a place to put HER car so that later, my other neighbor and I will actually be able to get in and out.

I WISH I'd had a lawn chair.

I am so sore.

(My power never did go out, yay!)

There are going to be no Adventure Cat adventures this time. :( If I'd done it earlier, maybe. But by the time I was done shovelling, all the places I would have taken her to walk around had ice-melt spread liberally around, and I don't want her to get that on her paws and then lick it off, it wouldn't be good for her. I have to remember that the time to take her out is when the snow is actually falling. Or soon after.
