I appreciate that too,, however I also loved playing outside, however I didn’t want to make snowballs when those portable gas furnaces caused them to melt, until I realized the snow was turning to ice before they totally melted
I remembered my dad buying hand warmers for his gloves when he was working outside during the winter, but dad was an Heating & A/C worker, & he often helped install new Heating & A/C system during early Springtime when it was still cold, or late fall when it was getting cold… He called the hand warmers his portable heaters. Mom liked that little portable heaters, & she started putting them inside my gloves when I was outside playing. I hated wearing those gloves, & I would take the hand warmers out & provide them to someone else to use. The portable gas furnaces would moderate my hands & gloves so well that I could not make a snowball. I was the only 1 who was getting bombarded with snowballs because mine melted before I could throw them. My neighbor Bobby liked the portable gas furnaces & he would stay hidden behind our barricade & let myself and others throw all the snowballs. He was ecstatic to have moderate hands & stay safe. The only reason he came outside to play was because his mom & dad made him. He would rather stay in his room & study a book or play video games. I appreciate that too,, however I also loved playing outside, however I didn’t want to make snowballs when those portable gas furnaces caused them to melt, until I realized the snow was turning to ice before they totally melted. I begged mom for a minute pair of hand warmers. I gave 1 to Bobby & kept the other set so I could get the snow to pack more suddenly & get a tighter snowball.
