Took me less time to shovel than after the Christmas weekend storm. It was the same type of snow but it hadn't drifted, and the task was made more pleasant by no wind! So my toes were fine (I suspected two pairs of socks made my shoes too tight so I only wore the wool ones).

My classes start on the 20th, and so I have started to get ready. I am really hoping to not have to use a cane on campus this semester. As long as it isn't icy, I will be OK. Fear of falling is more of a concern than my ankle holding up. (I think.) I wonder if it would look too strange to wear a pair of ice grippers on my shoes? Would that add to my dorkiness? More than my cane?
