One day at a time
It's sure been a tough month so far with all the freezing and ice. I turned a corner last night onto a road which is a slight downhill slope -- turns out that all that glistening wet was really the day's melt water turned back to ice.

He did a great job stopping and missing me, with the bonus that I was able to grab onto one of these posts they have at the end of the plows to not fall down. Whew! We're only half way through the month and I've already taken two days completely off and never headed out - -the first time in a few years with more than 1 day off in a month.
