Last night at work was brutal. I got stuck doing a computer job (international shipments). It was the first time iv actually been extremely cold this winter. I'd stand there long enough til I couldn't feel my fingers and feet any longer then go in the office for a few minutes to get the blood pumping again. Not to mention I'm the one who has to move semi trailers around the lot. Hey Glenn, you ever have to grab that jack handle in negative degree weather? It's a blast
When I was a yard jockey, we had hydraulic fifth wheels on our yard tractors. No jack handles for this guy! Lol.

I'm used to the cold now, but hate having my hands/feet frozen. When I lived in Phoenix, that heat was brutal, but looking back I rather enjoyed it.

I fell in my driveway last night, all bundled up in multiple layers. That was bad enough. These people are straight outta their minds!

Wow! I imagine it's like jumping into a cold pool. It sucks, but eventually it's kind of bearable.

I could probably do that off the top of my shop right now. The snow that has drifted on one side of the shop and the snow hanging off the top on that side have almost met! We are getting hammered here again this morning! There is about 6" of snow on the road since about 7:00 am. there was already over a foot on the ground. This is supposed to mix with ice this afternoon, then turn to rain tonight......oh how nice that will be

Calling for 5-9 of it here before it turns over. Not sure how much is out there right now - been working on why my garage door won't open and haven't really looked other than to know it's snowing.

We were supposed to swap beds on my half-ton today...needless to say that job got pushed off.

Lol. Only a Canuck. Personally though. I like to be able to hang onto something when I take a pee. I'm thinking after they got out there was nothing to hang onto
