Sheesh! What a bunch of light weights! I get the coffee started before I hit the bathroom in the morning and I suck that stuff down like crazy. I never, ever eat until I've been awake for a few hours.
But, wow, did I ever eat today! Spent 5.5 hours outside shoveling and dang near starved! Came in to defrost and eat after the first 3 hours, and stayed in for a couple hours to warm back up, then went back to it. OMG! I ache. Every muscle I own is complaining! I had a piece of leftover french toast...the nice fat kind coated in corn flake crumbs and crushed pecans, then I ate an entire pot pie for lunch and THREE pieces of pizza and half an order of breadsticks for dinner. I don't want to even know how many calories I sucked in today! If I was burning all those calories trying to stay warm, it didn't work very well! Dang near FROZE!
But, the good news is that the deck is ALMOST done. All but the end nearest the stairs is finished and that is cleared down to the hard pack. The top foot or so was all powder. The front yard looks like someone blew up an igloo! DS was cutting huge chunks of the hard stuff, about 2 foot deep and then tossing them over the side of the deck. Danged if they didn't stay in one giant piece when they landed! I got the stairs cleared off at both ends, including the one that still has hard pack, and even shoveled a nice little walkway to the door of the RV.
I think a caramel latte and some triple chocolate ice cream might help the sore muscles.......
