Well, I got power back on. Let the record state:
21" (and counting) in my driveway.
33" (and counting) against the door on my deck.

Back. Not feeling good after all that work.

WHy must these massive snowstorms keep happening on my weekends? It's nice to retain my vacation hours, I suppose, but aargh!!!

Warm isn't a problem. When I went to Michigan, I lived in a drafty house - even without power, I wasn't as cold this morning as I routinely was then.

I just got back from more shoveling. It's all about layers and good gloves. To with:

Under Armour Coldgear turtleneck and pants
sweatpants
t-shirt
long sleeve shirt
hooded sweatshirt
mask & cap
lined jogging pants
parka
gloves

I was out for a good hour and a half (this is my second shift today) and did almost all the clearing I'll need (saved some snow on the deck for emergency fridge if we lose power again) and I'm plenty warm. Actually, kind of sweaty-gross right now.

Hot bath ahoy!
