The endorphines are flowing and I feel GOOD!!! Hubby and I shoveled the walks and driveway this morning. We got up at 4:30 a.m. so we could get it done. We moved to a house with a corner lot this summer, so we've got the length of both sides of the property to do, plus two walks coming up to the house and the driveway. It took the two of us about an hour to get it all done. I then came in to shower and get ready for work while he went up to the store to get those walks done before anyone else comes in. It's now shortly after 6 a.m. and I've showered. I'm still running on a high from the exercise. Why is it that I don't like exercising if it feels like this afterward? Oh, yeah, 'cause I like to sleep, too. Ha! Besides, with shoveling, it was something that had to be done and I felt like I was accomlishing something while I was exercising. Maybe I should take up gardening come spring - I'll see how many plants I can kill while I try to make my lawn look pretty.
While I was shoveling, though, I told John to slap me for wanting to move into a house. At least with the apartment building, someone else did the walks (although it wasn't usually to our standards).

Good work. I've only shoveled snow once in my life and that only took about ten minutes. We don't get big piles of snow down here. Ice, yes, snow, not so much.
My brother in Denver says that shoveling show is good exercise, but he could do without all the glaciers on the side streets. I say better him than me!
