Snow Day!
Welp, we have a good nine inches of snow out there. I hear some parts of town have a foot.
grrlpup shoveled our walk, and then our neighbors' to both the east and west. We're being neighborly when we shovel to the east, but to the west? That is a rebuke. (As far as I'm aware, the neighbors to the west have never noticed that we have ever shoveled their sidewalk in all these years, let alone that we do it as a rebuke.)
We went for a walk a little later -- not much in the way of downed trees, it was nice to see -- and then this afternoon I went across the street and helped shovel that neighbor's sidewalk. On our side of the street, all the lots are skinny and deep, so no one has very much frontage, but there are only two houses on the other side of the block, both of which are corner lots, so the people over there have a loooooooooong way to shovel. One of them was out slogging her way around her corner with a narrow little square-tip shovel, so I took my snow shovel over to give her a hand.
(For those keeping score at home: neighborly.)
Mostly, though, I have spent the day admiring the winter wonderland from inside, where I am working hard on a vid. It's coming along nicely, I suppose, although I am at the point where I am heartily sick of it.
Is anyone up to beta, by chance? (It's for Festivids, so even the fandom is a secret at this point, sorry.)
