It's way too much fun to do the real work ourselves. Let the normies rely on machines to tell them how to live life. Love manuals. My wife won't own an automatic. Low maintenance and engaging driving experience. There will always be a stick car in my garage until my legs and arms don't work anymore. I get why they are a dying breed. Automation is taking over. I've had a few cycles in my years too. There's nothing like the hand clutch and throttle of a cycle. You really do become one with the machine. Yep, I'm old school and proud as F about it.

One of the few inevitable things in life is change, and most of that change tends to be unexpected, at least for me. There are more ups and downs than we can count. Just a few months ago I was in a dip, now I feel like I'm rising again. That won't last forever. I was actually talking to my gf a week or so ago about how we should diversify income streams. She thinks I should buy property and rent it out, but I don't think I'm ready for that. I still have a lot of student loan debt and I'm not sure about traditional income given the leap I'm about to take. I think savings and investment are the way to go right now. I could be much better at it but I've done ok so far. Like you said, it has to become a habit. I like the idea of having a year of savings. I should aim for at least that much. Weather will get wilder and much much more intense, Chill has got one hell of a valid point. One tree thru your house can be absolutely life-changing, or life ending, for that matter. Weather will not ease up. It will get worse and worse and worse. There is a ton of feedback associated with climate change, and with some other factors I will not mention. It's REAL and it is rapidly worsening. Keep an eye out for sudden unforecast storms, or sudden strengthening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 The snowdepthchanging maps on NCEP have been pretty accurate this Winter. The maps people post here often have 2-3x the amount and these arent consistent. NCEP snowdepth maps are super conservative but almost always verify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandurin Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 This is like claiming we should all 100% rely on weather.com for our forecasts. It's way too much fun to do the real work ourselves.No it's like accepting that automatic shifting is superior when regularly driving in rush hour traffic.

Its fun to go through all the possible "options" but whatever happens, happens. I am having fun tracking it, and if my yard gets screwed it wont change my opinion of this winter. I chased a blizzard at the beach and I had 5" of snow on the ground for a week with the arctic air in Jan, so I got to enjoy my outdoor fun- snow hikes etc. I am really only interested in seeing a heavy paste job now, because in mid March its all about the snow falling- once it ends, its gone.
