Day 154.........some snow but too cold to play in it-honest.

Day 154.........some snow but too cold to play in it-honest.

3 Girls and 4 Suitcases.


Whilst we did get some snow yesterday, by the time it amounted to much, it was dark. This morning, the mercury is heading quickly in the wrong direction and, simply standing at the door to take a snap of the blue sky has made my legs feel frozen. Brrr. Poor Ali. The wind is nasty and already we are already down to minus twelve but feeling like minus twenty-three. And it is to go lower and stay down there for the next week. So, I am pretty sure that there will be no snowman building in our garden, in the near future. Sorry folks. The pictures of our snowman may never materialize because he refuses to be built.
it was definitely warmer yesterday and got up to zero mid-afternoon. jen and I didn't leave the house though but now I am wishing that I'd gone for milk because it is getting pretty low. We will have to brave a visit to the bank later as the rent needs paid plus Ali needs to pay her last two pay cheques in. She is now solvent and saving for her mac air or applemac or whatever it's called. The pound is really good against the Canadian dollar just now and so the price of the laptop will feel less, especially if we buy it on the British credit card. I know that seems silly but it's the kind of logic you employ when budgeting in two countries.
If anyone has thought that they might like a trip to Toronto, my hoose is for rent in the summer and the exchange rates may make it a decent wee trip. I am hoping that the airfares will also drop, with the low fuel costs. Bizarre that the moment I typed that last sentence, Bill posted on FB that Toronto was the fourth best place in the world to live.
Not a lot of reporting to do about yesterday.
Last evening, the girls were editing Jens book. It was awesome to see them working together and listening to each others suggestions. I wasn't asked my opinion unless it was with something that they couldn't agree on and that was not much. I am very proud of the way that they communicate and, of course, their talents.
I sat and knitted and watched some Elementary, which had been building up on the planner. I love Johnny Lee Miller......so funny.
And then it was bed and then it was morning and now it is eleven twenty-seven :-)
Happy Friday Folks,

Pictures are to show you how deceiving mins 23 can be. x
