On a personal note, in the past three weeks I have...

* made use of a chainsaw to clear our road from a huge fallen branch (due to heavy snow)
* had another branch fall on our power lines, cutting the power for 10 hours
* blown the fuse to our water pump while deploying two heaters in the crawlspace under our house to prevent freezing in strong winds at -10°C (weird weather)
* gotten the car stuck in a snow drift
* shovelled a lot of snow
* had covid

December doth deliver...
