Early Sunday Mornings in the suburbs

Have you ever wondered what -25°C weather looks like in the suburbs of a cold climate place? Well look no further, see above image. Why was I awake at a God-awful hour, you ask? Well I woke up to take my medication for a throat infection and several viruses I’ve been fighting. It was quite a sight.

Just about every room in the house (except mine of course, because it’s on the North Side) was illuminated and blinding. Quite the winter wonderland!

Like night and da… Snow.. WTF?!

Autumn.1Winter.1

As much as I love the changes of seasons, I’m confused beyond words can express. I go to sleep one day with image one, shown above, and I wake up the next morning with image two. Winter has clearly arrived with our first snowfall here in Sackville, NB and I don’t know how to feel about it.

I cleaned the back door so that we are using it as entrance/exit to keep the house clean, plus it just works out better this way for our shoes and such. It didn’t take as long as I thought, but just moving all the things so that it would work was a struggle. It’s an addition to the house that isn’t heated so the shoes might be cold sometimes, but at least it’s a place ot keep stuff from being dirty!

But the snow? What’s up with that? Anyways, I’m not sour about it, but I don’t have proper shoes to go out into the snow so I don’t know what to do or what to think! Gahh!

As a side note, work is going well and I’m getting stuff done (finally) at a slow and steady rate, but at least something is getting done and it makes me happy!
