    Good Tuesday morning all. Currently -5°C and overcast.
    I've had beans soaking overnight and today I will make some baked beans and can them.
    I had hoped to have a firewood delivery today, but my son drove a co-worker into work today and he left his truck here - right in the way of the delivery truck!
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Wednesday morning all. Currently -4°C with strong, gusting winds and snow squalls. I think Mother Nature is confused ... she seems to think it's January!
    Looking out my window now and it is a complete white out ... I sure hope the bus makes it to school safely!
    I think I'll be doing some baking today, and a pot of chili sounds perfect for my boys who are out working in this weather today.
    Hope it clears ... we have somewhere to be later!
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Friday afternoon all. Currently -4°C and overcast. We broke records yesterday with cold temperatures ... it was -21°C yesterday.
    The sky was red this morning so I am wondering what kind of wild weather Mother Nature is going to throw at us today.
    Just got a load of firewood delivered so that will keep me busy today.
    Have a great day all :)

    Good evening. This is the first day I have planted tulip bulbs here in about two weeks due to wet conditions.
    The first yard still had some of the soil quite stiff. A few bulbs is better than zero bulbs.

    It was 55 here today and it's supposed to be 41 during the night. There may be areas of frost and some icy conditions to the north of us but it doesn't usually come unless it's colder. We get our weather from Green Bay and it's about 90 minutes to the north of us. Rain on Saturday night and snow on Sunday. dooley

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently -3°C and overcast. -3° feels almost tropical after the -21°C we had earlier in the week!
    We had rain yesterday so I didn't get any firewood stacked, but thankfully I had a large tarp to cover the pile with. Hopefully I will get back to that today.
    I've been looking online for Black Friday deals, but havent really been having too much luck. I did mange to place a few small orders to get my Christmas shopping started.
    No I just have to pray that the Canada Post strike gets them here on time!!
    Have a great day all :)

    I took a walk this am with a friend. Great way to start the day. She & I have been walking every Sunday for ??? 20 years.

    The rain held off which was great. Nothing is colder than wet rain in 35 degree weather.

    Good Monday morning all. Currently 2°c and raining. Looks like that firewood isn't going to get put away today either!
    House work to do today, and some book work to catch up on. Maybe a little online Christmas shopping as well.
    I'm not feeling horrible ambitious today.
    Have a great day all :)
