Who shovels the snow at your house? Do you mind shoveling?

If we need to shovel before someone comes by to shovel it, I make DH do it. I can't handle the cold.

We've both done it, but usually Chris does it.

No one. We never shovel...ever. We don't even own one. We don't use our front door (we come & go through the garage), and our mailbox is by the street, so the mailman doesn't have to walk up our sidewalk. But if we did shovel, I'd make DH do it!

Dh usually. Last year he had to cause we got dumped 37.5" of snow within 1.5days, and I was 20 someodd weeks pregnant and couldn't. If its not a lot of snow I don't mind doing it.

No shovel laws there? We have a shovel law (I'm sure that's not the true name, lol).. we have to shovel- we could get fined if we don't. Maybe it's because we get more?
We both shovel, I don't mind.. it's good exercise, lol!

Nope, none that I'm aware of. I've never even heard of a shovel law!

I shovel. I don't mind if it its a little bit of snow.... but when there's a lot... UGH. DH would help me shovel but can't since he works 14 hours a day 6 days a week so I do it during the day. Now I'm not sure if I can still shovel now that I'm preggo.

Congrats, Sarah!

I've never heard of a shovel law either. I know in my friend's subdivision they have a rule about shoveling that the HOA implemented, but they won't get fined unless they're repeat offenders.
