Saw the damage on V on the news lots without power and trees down.

Glad everyone here stayed safe.

We binge watched a couple more of Tokyo Swindler on netflix and liking it.

Had a nice visit with our daughter here too.

We ventured out to the farmer's market this afternoon and yes -10C felt cold to me.

Sanding done on the main roads that makes life easier. Started snowing again and the parking lot of the market was chunks of hard ice all over.

My winter boots still fit !!


(I don't generally post memes with incorrect grammar but in this case, the sentiment really spoke to me.)

I am going to have to find my winter boots today. I have been avoided doing that for 2 days now.

I hope they still fit πŸ˜‚

Somebody has about 100 folks & some surprise guests showing up to his CompSci dept retirement party later today & we are en route now. Great write-up by AMII on his legacy: amii.ca/latest-from-amii/amii-
