It's cold here too. We have gotten about an inch or so of snow today and expecting more tomorrow. School has been closed here all week due to the weather. Well girls all I can say is if you have to go out......be very careful! And if you don't have to go out then don't!! Stay warm

We are in the deep freeze to (for us) - we've had temps around 30-32 with a fierce wind so the wind chills have been bad.
Of course, it is not nearly as bad as you guys up north, but it is bad for us because we rarely have this kind of weather and most people are just not prepared. In fact, my granddaughter has my down jacket - and my regular coat is unlined  I resorted to wearing a down-like sports jacket to work today. We will get a really hard freeze tonight, and we rarely get below freezing, so there will be lots of broken pipes, as people just are not used to or prepared for this kind of weather. I wrapped out ourdoor faucets, but I saw that my neighbors did not, so I wrapped them. I hope they don't mind.

lol I guess I grew up in the wrong country... we NEVER got out of school because of the weather! Every once in awhile if it was -40 or colder, the buses wouldn't start so the lucky farm kids didn't have to go to school, but a town kid like me still had to show up
 It's been pretty cold here too. Yesterday was -45 Celsius with the windchill, but today is only -32 with windchill... and next week is supposed to be above freezing! But I don't believe it, not until it happens! Stay warm everyone!

The kids are all out of school again today!! The temperature for today is 10* with wind chills of -15* to -20*!! I think that we're going to have all the grandkids over for a sleepover tonight!!! We've been wanting to do one since Christmas but just wasn't able to get one scheduled. Karlie's already here with her pj's and her sleeping bag!! She's already got it rolled out in the living room and she thinks that you're suppose to sleep outside with it!!! Grandpa's in for a COLD night if she persists!!! LOL
