Will it never end? Snow...more snow...MORE snow...*argh*
I think I've reached my limit...I've been white-knuckling it on icy highways and snow-covered roads since October...
Yesterday, today and over the weekend...we might even have a record snowfall for the season.
The snow is so high in our backyard (off our patio) I can't physically shovel it anymore...my arms are too short to toss a shovel full up that high...
And then there are the flooding concerns when it all melts...esp. if it melts quickly....
Anyone have a nice, safe, dry sanitorium they can recommend??? I'm ready...where do I sign?55 g Goldfish Tank - 5 Fancies, 2 Dojos

I know how you feel
In the lowest part of my back yard, the snow is 3 feet deep, and as high as 6 feet were the wind blew it into snow banks. I had to shovel snow off the roof of my guarge twice this year due to the additional weight placed on the roof by the wind pilling up 3 to 4 feet worth if snow on the roof. I don;t even know were I can shovel the snow to that we are getting this weekend. I can't remember the last time we have had this much snow in Saskatchewan.
I am NOT looking forward to the melting either.
If you find a sanitorium on high ground with two rooms, let me knowIf you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

Well a couple of the daffodil fields are in bloom, but you still have a couple weeks before tulip time here.
You are welcome to come down and watch my seeds grow... perhaps some back patio squirrel mating like yesterday morning.

LOL, it must be rough Aeon, all those warm temps, sunshine, and sand getting your shoes...

Let's all grab Aeon and stuff him head-first into a snowbank.
It rained like all heck here yesterday, so our snow is almost entirely gone. And now it's snowing again. We're not supposed to get much, though... only a couple of centimeters. How long it'll last with the weather this warm (relatively speaking) is up for debate
The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of the act
