How many times did you slip?

If you live in the toronto area I think you'll know what I'm talking about. This morining all the roads have turned ice, cause its been rainning. You could barly walk without tripping and a car crashed at my intercetion. All the cars had a cm of ice. This winter has really been strange.

I almost slipped but didnt lol

lol everytime I tried to scrape the car this morning, i'd push myself away from it. And since my drive is on a slight incline I kept sliding down that too!!

I pulled off a few one footers today. I need to break out some golf shoes... jeez. Amazing how doing that can throw off your back for the rest of the day

Had to pick up some groceries for the parents...had a LOT of trouble getting up my driveway, it has a huge slant. Ended up having to get some kitty litter and spread it around a bit. It was fun though LOL.
