Feeling better today, waking up is tough though, lots of coughing and phlegm.

Had to go shovel snow again for the 3rd day in a row. Actually took the snow off my S4 in the driveway. Looked like an iceberg.

Then because it was so sunny but still freezing cold, I had to go open up the car to let it breathe when the sun went down.

Avoids having to scrape the inside of your windshield.

Jesus.

I think they found the car if not the driver.

They will likely say the car was stolen.

Not sure how you can ask people to trust someone who lies about something this easily verifiable.

B.C. has 1.3M rapid tests in a warehouse, officials confirm after top doctor called it an 'urban myth'

There are more than 1.3 million unused rapid tests in British Columbia, according to the Ministry of Health. And they are indeed sitting in a warehouse.

Pretty good dump of snow overnight here in the Cowichan Valley.

Pretty good dump of snow overnight here in the Cowichan Valley.

we got about another foot overnight, and it's wet and heavy.

after three weeks of vacation (stay-cation, of course), I'm back at my desk today.
So I let my kid know that shoveling would be her responsibility this morning, as her school has been pushed back a week
I did a quick path on sidewalks before logging on to work, so as not to be a dick, but she has to do the rest of the walkways and make the sidewalk paths wider.

she was a bit taken aback by my suggestion of manual labour.
I'm really going to enjoy watching it when she finally wakes up.

The snow is very crunchy here. Freezing rain on the bottom, 20 cms snow in the middle and freezing rain layer on the top. We sent our kids to grandmas on monday night so my day labourers are n/a. Hopefully my neighbour and his quad with plough attachment is feeling generous today !

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Fucking snow. Killing me slowly. Sick and shovelling almost every day. And my driveway is not snow friendly. And I have to long lots fronting the street for sidewalks.

A picture with my old Germans but the driveway is visible. Sort of limerock gravel. Double wide and right out to the street. Can't scrape it easily and have to lift every shovel full to toss it. And right now the piles at the sides are 5 feet high.

Lie or just misinformed?

 

[blindbaby]

Well, all I can say is I'm happy it snowed today on my days off instead of having to shovel that crap all day al work. I go back on Sunday and by then, the snow should have at least stopped falling by then.

Hey @Hank Kingsley

I see on "another board" where some sick person thinks every Canadian is $900 000 in debt!

I believe I saw that as well. But only because he @ed me in his post.

I am currently at that wonderful point in life where debt is not in my vocabulary.

I don't fuss much with Federal debt. I can't do a thing about it so I don't sweat it.
