IT SNOWED!!!blues sigh moping

Even though I've been here in Canada my whole life I just can't stand winter. You think I'd get used to it by now but every year it gets worse and worse. Now that the white fluffy stuff is here all I can think of is escape!laugh
Every year it's the same thing. Work like mad to beat the big freeze and hopefully get all the ground work done before it's too late. Everyone else's projects seem to take precidence over mine and I didn't get much done at home. I still haven't installed my new furnace. It's been a bit chilly here for the last little while. laugh
Does anyone else have the same issues? Not getting their own stuff done because of priorities being skewed. Not having enough hours in the day. Winter weather in general!laugh

Time to devise an escape plan!grin

WOO HOO ....... love the snow ..... although I do admit to having my first accident in January because of it .... well really it wasn't the snow's fault but the poor maintenance of our roads .... because it was a sheet of ice.

As for my projects - hhm ..... still haven't even had time to go and look at flooring yet - when I'm ready for installation - I'll let you know!!! grin

Curious how you actually know how dark the insides of a cow are .... care to explain? lol

As for darkness - well its pretty much the same here ..... but we do probably have a few more LIGHTS that are on.

Winter? Arghhhhh!! It isn't the snow that bugs so much as the 40 below nonsense! But I guess I choose to live in this country, so if I don't like it, all I have to make sure of is that the "door" doesn't hit me in the butt on my way to Costa Rica! Winter and road construction,...the only two seasons in this country!

What I don't get is why we are never ready for it - it happens every year. I was going to clean up the halloween decorations this weekend - should have done it yesterday instead of today. Now they are all covered in snow. BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr
