Balmy

Up and out early this morning to move an inch of snow. A couple of hours of that is not too shabby as far as exercise goes.

It's been so brutally cold and it's finally looking up. It felt balmy as I was working outside; proof that a human being can get used to anything if they have no choice. Would anyone in the southern hemisphere call these temps balmy? Of course not, but then, I am of hardy northern European stock if you go back in time far enough.

The absolutely massive back blipping (491 blips) continues. It's slow going because I'm scouring old hard drives, DVDs, flash drives, a few CF cards that turned up. Slow and steady, that's how it'll get done. It's a marathon, not a sprint.
