3. I don't look at the news until I'm at work
|
I figure the day is already ruined by being at work
My snow is still feet deep. I can see the top of the reflector by my wellhead now. This time last year the ground was bare and I could walk the dogs. Still no shoulder to the road here. Even the slow thaw of last week is gone. The wind was howling all night and a cold front blew in. Single digits. At least they're above zero this time.  |

4. Yes, but most days I do it anyway.
Oh, and we got more snow last night. Not to mention there is a forecast of another few inches on Friday  just in time for the first day of Spring 2015. |

10. The news IS depressing
|
It's meant to be. Some sources are worse than others. I don't listen because every time I have in the past, I could kick myself afterwards.
