Snow is better than being outside in the southeast when all the pine trees are releasing pollen all over the place. Literally everything gets covered in yellow, and tears up your allergies.
Hah, but they stop pollunating after a while, we get that up here two, maybe in a month or two. Kills my allergies.

Ha. Interesting, guess I thought that wasn't a problem up north.

Well, I'm gonna whine a bit here. I hate dealing with the snow screwing on water hoses and trying not to get sprayed down with ice cold water because the connection isn't 100%. It was so cold tonight trying to fill my bus with water was such a PITA. My hands were frozen by the time I was done. Then of course there is having to run a heater in the bus to make sure the water doesn't freeze in the tanks and burst a pipe. And when the snow is really bad there is either having to cancel appointments and lose money due to the snow or brave the roads and hope you don't get stuck anywhere. Remind me why I went mobile again? And then there are the peoplethat call that actually expect a mobile groomer to be cheaper than a salon and then get all bent out of shape when they hear my prices. OK, whine over.

You went mobile because you are making 2x what you were making working for someone else. You have complete control over your schedule and freedom to do whatever dogs or cats you want. You are not tied into the overhead of operating a shop and your business can grow with the addition of a new vehicle instead of a new shop.
And no, I dont worry about losing power. I have a generator in the new grooming bus that has enough power to run my entire house practically.

Sigh...sunny and high 70's down here today. The pollen...my silver truck is so yellow right now it's green.
Yeah, and the dang pollen clusters from my oak trees, make it look like greenish brown snow...
