Title: Anyone else snowed in?
Post by: WeirdRaptor on February 02, 2011, 08:41:23 PM

I've been trapped at home for about 48 hours and going thanks to the 21 inches my area got combined with the damn snow plows having erected a wall of snow at the edge of my driveway while clearing out the roads. How about you?

Yes, we had more than two feet snow today, and I had to go out and shovel it. I've had a headeache since then, and that was from around 11:00am to 1:00pm, that's six to eight hours ago. :(
I've always got a terrible pain in the back of my head, and I hands were so cold that I could hold the shovel.

I did, my mom did more work than I did out there, she doesn't have a headache or anything. My spine also hurts to, maybe I shouldn't have bent over so low when I'd push the snow. :bang

Stupid plastic shovels. :anger

Not snowed in, per se.  Frozen in is more like it.  Been in the double-digit negatives the past three days.

Well, I managed to get out of my home after days of being trapped. It took a lot of shoveling all the way from my front step, my garage, and all the way down my longer-than-usual driveway, though. I had to shovel out drifts anywhere from a foot deep to as tall I am (6' 2"), and I had to clear out the wall of snow the plows erected at the edge of 'way when they cleared out the roads. I'm sore as hell right now.

EDIT: Oh, yeah, I should probably mention that the reason I got snowed in is that I've moved out the apartment I had previously been staying which I mentioned in the "How you are feeling" thread. I'm sharing a house with a roommate to split down on rent. This edit is for anyone who read my entry on that thead and is confused as to why I suddenly have a driveway now.

Sounds like some places were hit pretty hard with snow.
