We're having fun now

Thirty minutes of shoveling snow accomplishes what? Removal of snow on driveway, sidewalk, and part of deck, to reveal a nice layer of ice on all said walkways. So, I am convinced I can get out, but no guarantees I will be able to drive back up the driveway afterwards. Fun stuff! Anyway, I'm feeling too lazy to actually try to chip through all the ice with my shovel, so it's going to have to stay as is for awhile.
