DH just headed out to shovel. He was getting suited up and I said, "don't forget the path to the lp gas cylinders, the delivery man is coming today" Don't you know that's just when he came. I'd shoveled yesterday and tamped it down with snowshoes but it had snowed more, and I watched the poor guy drag it down the half filled in path. That's one guy who's getting his exercise today.
I'll go shovel too but we've got half the storm to go. We'll do enough to make it easier next time. We'll go cross country skiing through the neighborhood later.
I enjoy shoveling when I am in shape, and I'm in shape enough for an hour or so now. It's been light and fluffy snow this year, a pleasure to deal with.

I have steps to shovel, but right now were just in the begining of the storm
Instead of going out right now, I guess I could catch up on some housework.. but I dont want that either haha

I put on my HRM and burned 421 calories shoveling and walking around the house.....we have to do an area by the back door so we can let the dog (Shih Tzu) out....she loves the snow but not when she disappears in the drifts....So I shoveled the porch and steps and the Hubby used the snowblower to make her a "yard" to play in......now if the blowing would just stop or it will all be filled back in again....

Believe it or not, I wish I was home shoveling snow. I was working last night and some knucklehead decided we had to stay open until 10pm, which was the peak of the storm (chicago). I tried to leave, but got stuck about 5 times in the first 1/4 mile, plus I couldn't see 10 feet in front of me. I decided it was best to ride it out back at the fitness center so I made way back (almost) and have been holed up here ever since.

My wife started shoveling our driveway about 30 min ago--they SMSd some pics -- Wow. It's 2-3 ft deep.

As much as I enjoyed working out in my private fitness center this morning (and stealing Zone bars out of the pro shop), I'd much rather be home with the family.

I spent over an hour this morning shovelling. My driveway always gets the drifting snow so it was 2' in places.
I like shovelling snow though and will head back out later this afternoon for another workout. It's still coming down here on the Mich/Ont border.

Have been out shoveling already bright and early this a.m.! Gotta keep my sidewalk shoveled for my childcare families and then only one showed up! Oh well, i get to enjoy a less busy day! Havent seen big drifts like this since i was a wee one, it still amazes me! It was hard to find the sidewalks, the drifts were up to my thighs and im 5 '9! Be safe on the roads!
