fe-brrr-uary

Well it looks like we really didn't escape winter after all. There was a wicked lightning and thunderstorm on Thursday; came home after work and stayed inside. My balcony looked like it was frosted glass but it was really a coat of ice as rain came pelting down sideways. Ugh. I watched the sky light up with blue flashes and then tucked myself into my cozy bed.

Just yesterday I think was what TO. really can be like in the winters. I awoke at 7 am (as per usual even on a weekend) and looked outside to see the streets in a blanket of white and the sun just beginning to appear. By the time I DID get up, the sun had melted everything but forecasts called for a cold day of -12 and with windchill, -25. So it was a day of staying in...no way was I going to step out if I could help it! A friend braved the cold and came over to hang out. Was a very nice relaxing day. Today's going to be another cold one: -10 but with windchill, -20. Brrr...bring on spring! (But at least it's sunny!)

Um...don't remind me! I ask myself that very question every once in a while. I just have to keep reminding myself that this isn't forever! Thanks for your comments...please keep them coming! :)

Y'know, it actually snowed here in Vancouver. For about fifteen minutes. And the flakes melted the instant they hit the ground.
