Today it's warmed up to a "balmy" 25 F ( about -4 C). Windy too which adds to the cold.

That shit's invigorating.  There's nothing quite like feeling the mucus in your nose actually begin to crystallize to know you're alive.   :lol:  Watching your contacts beginning to spiderweb, that's a different story.

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Supposed to get down to -5F here but at almost midnight it's still hanging around 4F.  Pity, I was hoping to do the boiling water to snow trick for the kids again.  And of course my Facebook feed is blowing up with people posting the wind chill readings from their phones' weather apps.  Yeah.  It's winter-- and it gets cold.  Get over it.

For me, cold weather is just an excuse to build a nice warm fire in the fireplace.  I might sleep on the couch just so I can keep the fire going throughout the night :comfy:
