Oh The Weather...

Winter official arrived at 10:19 PM (local time) on December 21st.  However, in our little part of the world it made its presence known last Tuesday.  The snow started to fall late Tuesday afternoon and it snowed (and snowed and snowed) until lunch time on Wednesday, and then the temperatures started to fall as well.

At this time every year, I post the same "joke" on Facebook, because it is true every year.  We have reached that point in the year that it takes longer to get ready to take the dog out than we are actually outside.  But I am not complaining.

I have lived the majority of my adult life in the Canadian Prairies.  Yes, I know it is going to be cold for a few weeks sometime in January or February.  You plan, prepare, and deal with it.

Once in a while, you do ask yourself why did I decide to live here again?  Then I remember...it will be cold today yes, but the sky will be a bright blue and the sun will be shining.
