Balmy -26, some how it doesn`t feel real warm, I`ll take a balmy +16 to +24 instead!
I hear you Shaune, I think the next few days will be pretty quiet ones for me too!
I`m getting fed up with winter too Dustin, short day light hours with extreme cold/wind chill is getting to me.

It was nastily cold out yesterday. I rearranged my livingroom to prepare the next stage of renos in it. Found some drafty spots on the picture window I installed and will fix them this week.
It was just plain cold. A hot dog would freeze before getting into a bun.

This shouldn`t be a big problem for a newly wed couple.....I`m sure if you try you can come up with some interesting ways to keep warm!

There is a reason that the weather is warm there - otherwise nobody would want to live there!

The wind has been blowing like crazy! But, our snow is going away. Bad thing is, it's flooding.

The unfortunate thing is, 60% of our population is from Onterrible and other equally cold locations in Canada, 35% is from Asian countries and 5% are born here.
