Don't like clearing the snow from the driveway by hand and with a powered snow shovel , the type guided by a single person. Wish I had a pick-up to attach a snow plow to.

Fridge's ice dispenser wouldn't dispense ice as it was blocked with frozen ice. Had to step outside and get some fresh snow; hate stepping outside in chilly weather , and snow is just not the same as ice.
