Sorry, I couldn't resist the bad pun. Perhaps I'm dad material after all! :P
Did the tiniest amount of defrost work today. I filled up the dishpan I use to catch/store the chunks of frost only once today. I almost didn't do any work but I thought I need to do even the barest minimum each day or I'll take a break until next year. I need to keep my motivation until the weekend when I can really make some headway since I'll be able to throw things away.
