I (officially) Hate Winter

This has been the winter from H-E-L-L. We have gotten quite a lot of snow and it just keeps piling on top of itself, the small accumulations have been easy but it seems it snows every other week or so. I've had to reschedule a doctor's appointment twice on the account of inclement weather. Here's a summary of the significant weather.

Our first snow storm hit right after Christmas, leaving us with about a foot of snow and my working from home at least one day.

We got another big storm late in January, again working from home. This time the snow was heavy and we (really Nick) had to shake the snow off our big tree in the front and our evergreens in the back.

Today (or rather since yesterday evening) we got an ice storm / freezing rain - whatever you want to call it. Our big tree is weighted down as are the evergreens but this time with a nice layer of ice. Here's a close-up of the big tree encapsulated in ice.

Along without our mailbox. Good luck opening it USPS.
