Hello New Hampshire/Vermont
> December 8:
>
> 6:00 PM. It started to snow. The first snow of the season and
>the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window,
>watching the huge soft flakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a
>Grandma Moses Print. So romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love
>snow!
> December 9:
>
> We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering
>every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic sight! Can there be a more
>lovely place in the Whole World? Moving here was the best idea I've ever
>had. Shoveled for the first time in years and felt like a boy again. I
>did both our driveway and the sidewalks. This afternoon the snow plow
>came along and covered up the sidewalks and closed in the driveway, so I
>got to shovel again. What a perfect life!
>
> December 12:
>
> The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a disappointment.
>My neighbor tells me not to worry, we'll definitely have a white
>Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we'll have so
>much snow by the end of winter, that I'll never want to see snow again.
>I don't think that's possible. Bob is such a nice man. I'm glad he's our
>neighbor.
>
> December 14:
>
> Snow, lovely snow! 8" last night. The temperature dropped to
>*20. The cold makes everything sparkle so. The wind took my breath away,
>but I warmed up by shoveling the driveway and sidewalks. This is the
>life! The snowplow came back this afternoon and buried everything again.
>I didn't realize I would have to do quite this much shoveling, but I'll
>certainly get back in shape this way. I wish I wouldn't huff and puff
>so.
>
> December 15:
>
> 20 inches forecast. Sold my van and bought a 4x4 Blazer. Bought
>snow tires for the wife's car and 2 extra shovels. Stocked the freezer.
>The wife wants a wood stove in case the electricity goes out. I think
>that's silly. We aren't in Alaska, after all.
>
> December 16:
>
> Ice storm this morning. Fell on I disagree on the ice in the
>driveway putting down salt. Hurt like hell. The wife laughed for an
>hour, which I think was very cruel.
>
> December 17:
>
> Still way below freezing. Roads are too icy to go anywhere.
>Electricity was off for 5 hours. I had to pile the blankets on to stay
>warm. Nothing to do but stare at the wife and try not to irritate her.
>Guess I should've bought a wood stove, but won't admit it to her. God I
>hate it when she's right. I can't believe I'm freezing to death in my
>own living room.
>
> December 20:
>
> Electricity's back on, but had another 14" of the d**n stuff
>last night. More shoveling. Took all day. Freakin snowplow came by
>twice. Tried to find a neighbor kid to shovel, but they said they're too
>busy playing hockey. I think they're lying. Called the only hardware
>store around to see about buying a snow blower and they're out. Might
>have another shipment in March. I think they're lying. Bob says I have
>to shovel or the city will have it done and bill me. I think he's lying.
>
> December 22:
>
> Bob was right about a white Christmas because 13 more inches of
>the white nuts fell today, and it's so cold it probably won't melt till
>August. Took me 45 minutes to get all dressed up to go out to shovel and
>then I had to piss. By the time I got undressed, pissed and dressed
>again. I was too tired to shovel. Tried to hire Bob who has a plow on
>his truck for the rest of the winter; but he says he's too busy. I think
>the not a very nice person is lying.
>
> December 23:
>
> Only 2" of snow today. And it warmed up to 0. The wife wanted me
>to decorate the front of the house this morning. What is she...nuts???
>Why didn't she tell me to do that a month ago? She says she did but I
>think she's d**n well lying.
>
> December 24:
>
> 6". Snow packed so hard by snowplow, I broke the shovel. Thought
>I was having a heart attack. If I ever catch the son of a pregnant dog who
>drives that snowplow, I'll drag him through the snow by his balls. I
>know he hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shoveling and
>then he comes down the street at a 100 miles an hour and throws snow all
>over where I've just been! Tonight the wife wanted me to sing Christmas
>carols with her and open our presents, but I was busy watching for the
>freakin' snowplow.
>
> December 25:
>
> Merry Christmas. 20 more inches of the @#$%^& slop tonight.
>Snowed in. The idea of shoveling makes my blood boil. God I hate the
>snow! Then the snowplow driver came by asking for a donation and I hit
>him over the head with my shovel. The wife says I have a bad attitude. I
>think she's an idiot. If I have to watch "It's a Wonderful Life" one
>more time, I'm going to kill her.
>
> December 26:
>
> Still snowed in. Why the hell did I ever move here? It was all
>HER idea. She's really getting on my nerves.
>
> December 27:
>
> Temperature dropped to -30 and the pipes froze.
>
> December 28:
>
> Warmed up to above-50. Still snowed in. THE pregnant dog is driving me
>crazy!!!
>
> December 29:
>
> 10 more inches. Bob says I have to shovel the roof or it could
>cave-in. That's the silliest thing I ever heard. How dumb does he think
>I am?
>
> December 30:
>
> Roof caved in. The snow plow driver is suing me for a million
>dollars for the bump on his head. The wife went home to her mother. 9"
>predicted.
>
> December 31:
>
> Set fire to what's left of the house. No more shoveling!
>
> January 8:

> I feel so good. I just love those little white pills they keep
>giving me. Why am I tied to the bed?
