Four letter word starting with s

Got up at 6:30 this morning all excited to open the gas kiln full of shino. The old dog Missy and I opened the door and I think we both said in unison "Holy S---! Well it, was a four letter word but it wasn't snow. Missy turned around and went back to bed and I waded thru a foot of snow. I got busy and painted up a sign so that I didn't have to do much shoveling.
Canada love it or leave it.
BTW is was a very nice load of pots.
