12,000+ steps and seemingly that many problems as well

Wow, what a day. I'm speaking about yesterday, February 16th. It was so chaotic that I didn't even have time to write this post until today.

To start off with, we got a bunch of show overnight and I wasn't able to do anything about it early in the morning. I leave for work at around 5:30 am, and that's far too early to fire up a loud snowblower.

I tried to work on it after work, but I didn't have time because I had an appointment a half hour after I got home. It didn't go well. My brand-new snowblower (I posted about buying it last month) seems to be having issues. Mainly, the issue is that it isn't really throwing snow. It should cut through the light, fluffy snow we got like a hot knife through butter. Instead, it's barely throwing snow at all.

It threw snow well enough to hurl a chunk of ice at a window on my house and break it, though. That was really frustrating and worrisome because it's currently about 1⁰F outside.

I called my wife, who already had to stop at the grocery store and an auto parts store, and she went to a hardware store to pick up some supplies to cover the window. We put cardboard on the outside and thick foam on the inside. It stayed pretty warm. We'll probably just leave it like that until someone comes to fix it.

So my wife is working on that and I'm going to work on getting the snowblower looked at.

Anyway, that's how I got so many steps in. It was nearly 7 pm by the time I finally got to take a shower and relax. I was asleep less than 2 hours later. What a long day!
