OH GOD. Now there's a whole army of teenage boys out there, in their shorts, shoveling our cars out.

THEY SMELL A SUCKER.

I'm confused why they are in shorts?

H once made the mistake of asking this question, one snowy morning.  The entire block was out uncovering our cars, and neighbor kid and all his friends were jaunting off to school, in shorts.  NK's mom started screaming, "DON'T YOU DARE!!  BE A GENTLEMAN!!!!!"
NK turned around, smiled broadly, and announced, "BECAUSE PANTS STRANGLE MY BALLS."
And off they went.

NK is ALWAYS in shorts.  His friends are now usually in shorts.  They were having a blast in the blizzard yesterday.  There was a snow-shovel fight in the alley.  In shorts.

Fool kids.

We are supposed to get a few more inches this morning.
I need a neighbour kid doing the walkways. How much? Our snow removal company does it but it is as much as the driveway ($250 for driveway + $250 for walkway) and we can't justify the cost right now.

This must be for the whole season, yes?

Is it mean of me to say that here it will be 45F and gloriously sunny today? Yes? Oops.

70s and sunny here today.

We are off to see Santa today!

And I will say I miss snow. A bit. It's nice. But I don't miss winter. And cleaning off my car in the morning.

My dad shovels in shorts too. I always attributed it to the fact that he grew up in SD and was stationed in AK for a while. He is also basically a walking furnace. He comes in all hot and sweaty and his face is all red even when it's like -10 and still snowing.

I really hope his real reason is not the same as NK's...

Definitely snowed in! DH & I are taking turns digging out

yes.  We get just the driveway at the moment.
