Start a New Cycle
We’ve come to the point of the year where the weather can’t seem to make up its mind. As I type this it’s raining with a forecast for the temperatures to drop below freezing at night. I’m then going to wish I bought stock in whatever salt company makes the salt that I will throw out on the sidewalks and make sure I do that in enough time before the predicted snow that’s supposed to come by tomorrow night. This way pedestrians won’t slip and fall on the snow-covered ice, nor will I, and I’ll avoid being chopped up by my snowblower. Okay, that’s a little extreme, but I’m sure you all understand what I’m saying.
