December 8: 6:00 PM. It started to snow. The first snow of the
season
and the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window
watching the huge soft flakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a
Grandma Moses Print. So romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love
snow!

December 9: We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow
covering every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic sight! Can
there
be a more lovely place in the Whole World? Moving here was the best
idea
I've ever had. Shoveled for the first time in years and felt like a
boy
again. I did both our driveway and the
sidewalks. This afternoon the
snow plow came along and covered up the
sidewalks and closed in the
driveway, so I got to shovel again. What a perfect life.


December 12: The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a
disappointment. My neighbor tells me not to worry, we'll definitely
have
a white Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we'll
have so much snow by the end of winter, that I'll never want to see
snow
again. I don't think that's possible. Bob is such a nice man. I'm glad
he's our neighbor.

December 14: Snow, lovely snow! 8" last night. The temperature dropped
to -20.
The cold makes everything sparkle so. The wind took my breath

away, but I warmed up by shoveling the driveway and sidewalks. This is
the life! The snowplow came back this afternoon and buried everything
again. I didn't realize I would have to do quite this much shoveling,
but I'll certainly get back in shape this way. I wish I wouldn't huff
and puff so.

December 15: 20 inches forecast. Sold my van and bought a 4x4 Blazer.
Bought snow tires for the wife's car and 2 extra shovels. Stocked the
freezer. The wife wants a wood stove in case the electricity goes out.
I think that's silly. We aren't in Alaska, after all.

December 16: Ice storm this morning. Fell on my *** on the ice in
the
driveway putting down salt. Hurt like hell. The wife laughed for an
hour, which I think was very cruel.

December 17: Still way below freezing. Roads are too icy to go
anywhere.
Electricity was off for 5 hours. I had to pile the blankets on to stay
warm. Nothing to do but stare at the wife and try not to irritate her.
Guess I should've bought a wood stove, but won't admit it to her. God
I
hate it when she's right. I can't believe I'm freezing to death in my
own living room.


December 20: Electricity's back on, but had another 14" of the damn
stuff
last night. More shoveling. Took all day. Goshdang snowplow came
by
twice. Tried to find a neighbor kid to shovel, but they said they're
too
busy playing hockey. I think they're lying. Called the only hardware
store around to see about buying a snow blower and they're out. Might
have another shipment in March. I think they're lying. Bob says I have
to shovel or the city will have it done and bill me. I think he's
lying.

December 22: Bob was right about a white Christmas because 13 more
inches of the white **** fell today, and it's so cold it probably
won't
melt till August. Took me 45 minutes to get all dressed up to go out

to shovel and then I had to
piss. By the time I got undressed, pissed and
dressed again. I was too tired to shovel. Tried to hire Bob who has a
plow on his truck for the rest of the winter; but he says he's too
busy.
I think the ******* is lying.


December 23: Only 2" of snow today. And it warmed up to 0. The wife
wanted me to decorate the front of the house this morning. What is
she...nuts??? Why didn't she tell me to do that a month ago? She says
she did but I think she's damn well lying.

December 24: 6". Snow packed so hard by snowplow, l broke the shovel.
Thought I was having a heart attack.
If I ever catch the son of a
buck
who drives that snowplow, I'll drag him through the snow by his cahones.
I know he hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shoveling
and then he comes down the street at a 100 miles an hour and throws snow
all over where I've just been! Tonight the wife wanted me to sing
Christmas
carols with her and open our presents, but I was busy watching for the
goddamn snowplow.
December 25: Merry Christmas. 20 more inches of the !=3D@x@!x!x1 slop
tonight. Snowed in. The idea of shoveling makes my blood boil. God I
hate the snow! Then the snowplow driver came by asking for a
donation and I hit him over the
head with my shovel. The wife says I have a bad
attitude. I think she's an idiot. If I have to watch "It's a Wonderful
Life" one more time, I'm going to kill her.


December 26: Still snowed in. Why the hell did I ever move here? It
was
all HER idea. She's really getting on my nerves.


December 27: Temperature dropped to -30 and the pipes froze.


December 28: Warmed up to above -5. Still snowed in. THE ***** is
> driving me crazy!!!


December 29: 10 more inches. Bob says I have to shovel the roof or
it
could cave in. That's the silliest thing I ever
heard. How dumb does he think I am?


December 30: Roof caved in. The snow plow driver is suing me for a
million dollars for the bump on his head. The wife went home to her
mother, nine inches predicted.


December 31: Set fire to what's left of the house. No more shoveling.


January 8: I feel so good. I just love those little white pills they
keep giving me but why am I tied to the bed?​
 
we have plenty of snow, more than 2 feet over the shed now, it's invisible except for path into the door.

The Old Lady wants to move to New Mexico, every year about this time. I keep telling her, we Puffins like it cold.
 
Dang Hick,
For just a little there you had me going. I hate to admit this, but I was laughing at you, and thinking Southern boy. Grew up on the coast, hot sandy beaches, and would run around in a pair a shorts all winter.

This is a cute story, but there is a certain amount of reality to it too. We got about 5-6 inches of that snow on the ground right now, and I just finished looking at the weather map. Looks like some is coming our way this am, maybe ice in with it. I love the country, hate the city where half the folks have no idea how to handle this stuff, let alone drive in it.

Now before you go thinking I'm another Bob, I moved from Southern Calif to the great lakes about 27 years ago, and have payed my dues. The difference is I shot Bob, sold my wife into slavery, tore the house down with the snow plow, and I get the little blue pills.

We have had a light winter so far in my neck of the NE woods. My partners and I have been able to get in the woods easily and start stock piling for next years firewood orders.

I'd love to show you some of my snow pix, but I'm in all of them, and they'd give away my location QUICK. Here's the picture tho... Front flip off the roof, into shoulder deep powder. (video actually) 14ft drifts against the barn, backhoe AND snow thrower on the tractor, shoulders of the road are too deep to plow. First you have to clear the shoulder with the backhoe, 96inches of a 2 mile drive at a time, then clean up with the thrower. These are also over 12ft high...DO we have snow you ask!! hahahha 10 man hours and counting today...prolly be 20 by night...
