This winter has been terrible, just awful! I'm ranting insanely.
This is the southwest corner of NH. We got another 8 inches on Wednesday on top of the almost 2 feet that is already on the ground, and they are predicting another big storm for tomorrow into saturday. The roads around here are just awful...no fault of the road crews...they are running out of salt, sand and stamina! And then next week we're getting ice and sleet. I can't find my propane tank and can barely make out my driveway. There is no place to put the snow. My drive into work this morning was a near death experience. Tomorrow morning should be better but then more snow. And...I have goddamned jury duty on Monday. I just want to pack it in and move to Florida...oh no! Hurricanes!!!!

6. Second that driveway thang.
Spousal unit and I now spot traffic for each other whenever one of us has to drive out - seven foot piles of the white shit at the entrance. We had to dig out our propane tank so we could get a refill - that was fun.

7. Maybe it doesn't matter where some of us are
My winter wasn't that bad, but it seemed like a horrible winter anyway. Go figure.

8. You make a very good point. I live in a beautiful place, I can
manage to fill my oil tank, I'm healthy and I have people around me who love me. It certainly could be a lot worse. Thanks for the perspective! I feel better!
