    Don't forget to stretch before you head out to shovel! :)

    We are just getting the tail end of your storm here in Ottawa.

    I'm so happy! I love the snow...it's insane outside. I'm going to the gym soon, it will probably take forever to shovel out the car, but I'm still happy..haha

    It IS beautiful out! A winter wonderland!

    Glad I put my car in the garage last night.

    Good day to go to the pool - there probably won't be many people there!!

    Schools are OPEN here, even though it's a mess outside and bus service is cancelled. SO ridiculous!

    My hubby works for our town and has been riding the plow since yesterday evening, and will not be home until late tonight. Poor guy. I claim today as "Hug A Town Plow Driver Day"! :wink:

    I'm fortunate enough to not have to shovel. But I got an extra calf workout walking in the unshoveled sidewalks today. I'm just happy to be warm.

    The Midwest got hit last night too. They closed our schools early. I feel really bad for those on the east cost... today they are expected to get up to 3 feet in a 12 hour period of time. Chicgo is in the clear for now. Glad you all up there finally get to see some of it, just wish it wasn't so treacherous to commute in.

    The skiing and snowshoeing will be awesome this weekend!

    This is why we have kids! LOL! I'll supervise while they shovel.

    J/K! I like using snow shoveling as a good workout. Chances are I'll be out there more than once! This is some nasty stuff!

    I'm from SW Ontario.

    My heart rate from 70 - 136 within 20 minutes of shoveling snow! Under all that snow is a sneaky sheet of ice. :frown:
