    Shoveling snow is an exercise...I think I saw that 10 minutes = 125 calories!!! So just take care of your property!!! Good Luck!!!!

    Well at least you only get the snow. We got the snow and -45 C weather this last week. If I had my way I'd stay curled up in a ball in my bed lol.

    And you do not have a snow thrower? CRAZY!!! I think I would have a heart attack shoveling all of that snow.

    Wow! You all are SO optimistic with the snow! What a positive outlook on shoveling! Good job! I moved to FL from WI to get away from the snow and cold :)

    The only reason I'm optimistic today is because I called off work the next two days lol. Driving in this crap freaks me out so I refused to do it!! Shoveling I can manage!
