You Know It's Cold When....

You know it's cold when -


Check out the Canadian Weather Network


Today it is -30C, which to those who use the Fahrenheit system, equates to
-24F...factor in the windchill which is sitting at -45C, and yup - it's freakin' cold here today.

We woke up not being able to start the truck...good luck trying to reach AMA.

Surprisingly, schools were still open, although Paden gets to stay home today since we're 'sans' vehicle....

You know it's cold when your car won't start.

You know it's cold when the cars that do start are left running...all day long!

You know it's cold when you walk outside and when you inhale, your nostrils stick together.


You know it's cold when you get an instant ice cream headache, without the benefit of having ice cream.

You know it's cold when your latte turns into ice cream...(wish I had one of those right now)

You know it's cold when you don't see anyone out walking their dog.

You know it's cold when you see the dog stuck to the hydrant....hahahahaha.

You know it's cold when even the snowmen are shivering.

One thing that really annoys me here is that while it's cold enough to cancel school buses, they leave "school open". I don't get it...why not just cancel school altogether??? When the buses are cancelled, only half the students show up and the teachers don't go ahead with new work because they know they will only have to repeat it for the others missing that day. Buses were cancelled today, and although I drive my kids, we decided to stay home and have a "snow day"...our first snow day since living here. This is one thing about AB I find strange & annoying.

Well not being mean here but you can keep your cold... it has been up in the plus long minus here but we have had rain... but know where you are coming from... and know what you are getting we will get in a little while.... the school got closed at 11 yesterday because we were suppose to have drizzing rain....never happened another day the kids got part of a day off... We have been having a lot of those snow days without the snow around here...
