SUNNY! Oh yeah its sunny and I am sucking it alllllll up because I haven't seen the sun since I dunno when! It's about 6C ... which is nice. There are people biking all over the place here and walking down to the ravine next to the house. There are a few over zealous people already doing their New Years Predictions of living healthier .... they will think twice about exercising when its 20C below. heh heh
New Years eve was a total wash out here, the winds were in the 70 mph range or higher, we watched a few things fall off a few people's balcony's when we went to pick up some friends and go to the downtown outdoor NY Eve party. We decided that it wasn't such a good idea to go to an outdoor event with ranging winds and rain like it was coming from God's 40 days and 40 nights throwback.
A blizzard of water made us stay in at another friends who entertained us with old Commodore 64 computer games and plied us with booze and a ton of food. Twas a fine fine time.
Now its a fine fine time to have a walk in the ravine with a friends doggy who loves to wander with me. When I come back its time for a nap. Then later I might have another nap.
Nope, not snowing here. Nope, not raining here, not doing nothing here. It's 1C ... and mildish out. I think its thursday but life is a blur because of the dang holidays. I HATE SIGNING THINGS AND WRITING DOWN 2018 instead of 2019. So .... I am a little confused and lost.
Did I mention my favorite budgie in the whole dang world has managed to figure out where my bedroom is? She flew in my room yesterday morning and yelled at me while she sat on my drapes for 2 minutes. Then she got real brave and flew down to my head which was buried in my pillow as I groaned and said, "GO AWAY BIRB!"
She would not go away, so I had to get up and start a very very very early day with the birb. It was not my idea of fun! Stoopid dang budgie is too smart and very demanding.
Brrrr .... its cold out today -4C ... but feels like -10C with the wind chill. It can't be that cold I saw 2 of my stranger neighbors riding their motorcycles today. (I think these neighbors do drugs)
It's gray and overcast and we have a 60% chance of snow and rain later on today. So ... my monday is looking like normal.
+7C ... +7C! That's bikini weather in this part of the world!
It's not sunny today and its raining off and on ... more on then off. That's okay I can deal with rain cause I don't have to shovel it. I will stay inside where its dry and I will be productive today. HEH HEH ... nope. I like that its the 8th of January of 2019 and we've basically had no snow here for the last 2 months or more. We've had a few little dumpings but it didn't stay around long and it didn't snarl traffic or mess with us badly so I can dig it. Winter here is odd sometimes. Tomorrow we are suppose to have flurries off and on all day, I hopes its OFF more then on.
Boy did it snow, actually is was not a lot of snow but it was so windy and blowing everything around so horribly you would think it was going to be a dumping from hell. It was a tease .... as today is a bright sunny coldish day with temps in the -5C feels like -12C with the wind chill.
I can forgive the snow flurry's that were just a tease. I am happy because its sunny and I don't ache all over today like I do when its damp and snowing and awful outside.
It's a bright sunny day without a cloud in the sky but its chilly out there. I am sitting in a nice ray of sunshine next to the window and the heater so its a nice feeling. The Nanner has been sitting on my arm and shoulder preening in the sunshine so she's enjoying the sunshine as well.
Brrrrrrr .... Saturday January 12, 2019 It's chilly out. The weather channel says its -5C ... which is -11C or something.
There is the odd snow flake floating by my window every time I glance out the window from my desk spot. I am hoping there is a wild bird near my house that is molting and preening and this may be the odd reason for the odd little white floofie for flying by. I am hoping and praying its a molty birb. Chances are its not.
Chances are its sort of snowing and its a snow protest ... it is going to snow but the flakes don't wanna fall and die ... they are protesting their demise and want to stay where they are in the sky. Yeah I've been drinking this morning ... so what? Who are you my mother? You can't tell me what to do.
Went out and walked about the local messy snowy day yesterday ... it wasn't really snowy at all.
There were just a few little flakes and some dampish roads which was the entire extent of the horrible storm they said we were going to get.
Today is suppose to be more of the same. I say bring it on if it was like yesterday. I can deal with the white stuff when its not really much white stuff to deal with.
WINTER! Winter has been interesting this year as its been non existent in the snow department. I LIKE IT!
SNOW ... evil gross snow falling all over the place in the form of a nice blizzard. We are supposedly due 10cms of the fluffy white stuff that is already causing so many traffic problems here. People need to slow down and watch for others because not everyone is great at driving on slippery conditions.
I've seen a couple of cars driving sideways down a few slippery hills today. Talk about your life flashing before yer eyes!
Nanner and I will stay in the warm house and do a whole heap of NOTHIN today.
SO MUCH SNOW ... and more on the way. Now we are dealing with the cold and windchill which ain't pretty! -21C ... which feels like -33C. THAT'S COLD!
More snow is due ... in fact I think its snowing now but with the wind blowing all the loose snow around it might not be snowing just blowing snow from roofs cars roads and what not.
I hope where ever you are its WARMER and sunny and you aren't freezing your noogies off.
Its chilly out -7C which feels like -12C. I don't mind the cold.
Its been a couple of busy days trying to deal with driving around in the snow with all the snow removal services diligently working like mad to clear roads and parking lots and highways so we schmucks can get around.
The pickle juice trucks are out spreading the juicy stuff to make it safer for us schmucks to try and drive in the icy road conditions.
I keep wondering why I smell pickles and was told here that where I am working (Not in Toronto) they use this pickle brine stuff to clear the roads here. Who knew? Mmm ... pickles.
Wednesday we are due warmer temps up in the 5 or 6C area and a ton of rain. Can you see the hell this will create then?
Melted snow and ice and all that water? Can you say SKATING RINK!
I might skate to work on Thursday when it all freezes again and the snow hits us all over. Wish me luck ... I haven't skated for a few years so the next time I reply it will probably be me lying in a slushy pile of snow with a broken leg or knee while I wait for an ambulance to come and rescue me. :lol: I might just be eating some lovely pickle flavored snow while I lay there in pain waiting ... making my next post on here.
NO ... its not my car but when I had to dig my car out yesterday and scrape the snow off
RAIN RAIN RAIN RAIN and mild temps of +6C. Its a mess outside and I did my slip sliding dance allllllllllllll the way down the driveway to the car. When I got to the car I seriously thought I should go back in the house, get into bed and pull the covers over my head until this mess goes away.
It's suppose to freeze up later and snow tomorrow with icy temps heading our way again. That skating rink looks like its going to be here soon and I'm not really looking forward to it.
SNOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! More dang SNOW ... all night, sort of all morning. STUPID DANG SNOW.
And what's up with people not cleaning snow off their cars when they are driving around. Are they deliberately trying to cause an accident or kill someone? Dang snow.
Oh yeah, its suppose to snow all afternoon into the evening and then dump even more snow on us tomorrow. WHY DOES MOTHER NATURE HATE US SO?
Sunday Rant ... I'm all done now. I might go back to bed. (until April)
It's COLD out there Mama! WHERE'S DA HEAT ! Tis a chilly day in the great white north. It's -10C which feels like -19C with the wind chill. Yesterday the wind blew right through you and made yer blood freeze! Okay not quite freeze but it was chilly and the wind felt like it was whipping you around like a flag or badly placed wind chime.
It's ugly and overcast and the threat of snow is coming for later this afternoon evening and should snow allllllllll through the night. Can you sense how excited I am? I bet you can. NOT.
Nanner and I are sticking close to a heater and a window while we watch all the little birds outside looking for food, poor little frozen birbs.
Another cold day but its clear and bright with some sunshine and blue skies peeking through the fluffy frozen white clouds. It's currently -14C which is -25C with the wind chill. I can't wait until Monday when it will be a balmy +9C or higher ... it will melt all this white crap!
HURRY UP SPRING!!!!!
