up this morning early, knew i had to shovel....and wet snow at that but apparently the last little bit of precip we got was freezing rain because there was a nasty hard crust on the snow......ended up getting everything that needed to get done today done early and took the AM off, i'll have to make an appearance both saturday and sunday(probably) as production is 24/7 for the next 2 or 3 months.....we are way behind....have a lot more orders then what we expected.....not a bad thing of course but does make things hectic....plus have to go in an hour early tomorrow to get a load on it's way for a late gate at the pier.....have just hung out today after work and feel pretty good....finally am over most of the effects of the cold i had.....must have been colder then i realized last night because i awoke this morning to find a ball of cat on the end of my bed....if they hadn't been of different colors you would not have been able to figure out where one started and the other stopped.....night all
