Just got in from a quick trip outside. The lawn tractor is under a shed roof & the snow is blowing so bad, that it was getting under the roof and several inches deep on the tractor already. I got my last tarp from the garden & got as much snow off the tractor as I could, then covered it & tried to weigh down the edges so it won’t blow off .... fingers crossed.
I think there is sleet mixed in with the snow. I’d say we have 4-6 inches on the ground already. I have knee high boots with neoprene tops from Southern States .... big splurge at the time I bought them, but I am really glad to have them now.
Hope your hip feels better ... cold doesn’t help anyone’s “older” bones either (mine included).
I’m thinking copious use of the heating pad and absolutely no laying on that side will help - may take a few days.
