Brrrr!
I woke up this morning to the radio saying it was -37 degrees (-34.6 F) and the radio announcer was telling the woman who called in that she should probably just stay home for the day because it was nasty outside! I have to say the thought crossed my mind! I decided to run outside to start my car about 20 minutes before I left so it would be relatively warm (I need to get my command start fixed!) and then realized I haven't even plugged it in yet this winter, I don't think it's going to start! I got a little excited thinking about going back to bed for the morning
 But after a few engine turnovers, it started  By the time I left for work it was -38 degrees, but I did make some hot tea to warm up.Well, at least winter arrived in time for Christmas! Now I'm looking forward to Mexico in February

Lindsey, I just can't imagine living in a place that is that cold!!! And I think that it's cold here!!! Of course, we have a real humid cold. When we used to go snow skiing the cold wasn't so bad because it didn't have the humidity with it. Do you know what I mean?

Yes, I've experienced humid cold too and it's so much worse because it just gets into your body and you can't shake it! This weather really wouldn't be so bad if we were eased into it lol. We had the hottest September in history and broke a lot of records in November too. We got our first snow to stay only last week. Usually snow stays in October! This just came out of nowhere last night. I was shocked when I heard that temperature on the radio!

Lol I just have to add... the nice thing about it being this cold is that Layla's feet stay much cleaner! She has a pee pad on the deck just outside the sliding glass door, but now as soon as the pee hits the pad it instantly freezes and doesn't run under her feet anymore

Lindsey! It's -26 C here (or -15F). So not as bad as where you are! Ugh. I am happy that snow will be here for Christmas too. We had mounds and mounds of blowing snow here. So much that roads were and still are, totally impassable. In the North Calgary is basically buried in a metre and a half of snow.
Keep Warm!!!
