No DIY projects for me today!
Here in Central VA we had about a foot of snow dumped on us over the weekend. Guess that vacuum issue will have to wait a while!

Yeah, I know, what you mean. Friday NIGHT, we got about an inch of ice. I took one look at Chameleon and said, it would take me an hour to get the driver's door open --- no electricity available where car is parked.

On Friday I drove to Syracuse. I did not drive my car for an entire week.
So when I went to start her up I was having this low dull grown when the starter started to spin. Then she fired up and I had a rough idle. So I reached in to feather the accelerator and plump. She died off. Ok so I do multiple glow cycles. I think I spent about 2 minutes doing glow cycles. Sure enough that did the trick. Granted the temperature when I left was 5 degrees. When I went to start my car yesterday I did a single glow cycle and wroom the car started right up. This was after sitting the entire night outside in the cold. I'm not sure what's going on  It's a heat wave right now at 15 degrees.

 When I miss the snow I drive for an hour to the mountains.Thanks for the picture of your MB covered in snow.
