This weather swing in 48 hours...

I should go to the store and get two essential things, and then swing by and grab a coffee somewhere. But, REALLY not feelin' it getting out in this wind.
 
We just did our usual Sunday run to Kum&Go. Good thing wind is invisible.
You can do it. @SaraV - the young lady who held the door open for DH was wearing fluffy slippers.

Does he not know you can just turn the gas valve off and run the carb empty and not the tank?

I had the same thought. That being said I should probably reach out to my BIL that I gave my old snowblower to and teach him how to prep it for storage.

Lawnmower does not have a shutoff value nor does the old single stage snow chucker so done that some years. Ran the two-stage out this week. Amazing how much fuel is in the line and carb, had me thinking "Is that value really shut?".

A year ago I was mowing my yard for the last time. I had to throw a splash of gas in to finish cutting and then walked back and forth for seemingly forever to get that last bit to burn.

When you want the gas to last to get something done it vaporizes. When you want it gone to put it away it is suddenly Jewish and lasts for eight nights.

Holy moley that wind out of the NW is just plain bone chilling today. The snow isn't really sticking but dang that wind cuts right through you.
 
Mini heart-attack when right after submitting your taxes, you get an email that says that your federal return was rejected. Turns out I can't read and misentered the EIN for husband's radio job.

At least you didn’t wait until the last minute. They aren’t due until tomorrow.
