Burrrrrrrrr

It's cold here. Suddenly, it's really cold. I am such a wimp when it comes to cold, as I am realizing. I mean, we haven't really gotten snow yet (although it was falling softly from the sky yesterday) and it's only been minus one or two which to the locals is "nice." To me, though it's cold and I don't know how I'm going to survive minus 50. Seriously, they say it get's that cold for at least a week every winter, and other than that the average is minus 30. It's not as dry as Alberta which makes it feel colder. I'm in shock and awe that this is my lot for the next few years. I really have to endure this????

yeah, all those. Bet you covet my dreaded big brown furries about now. when it's -27 in Williams Lake I suffer, I can't imagine -50! But I imagine you'll adjust. Make lotsa good hot teas and hot chocolates.

You'll get used to it and then -1 will feel warm to you, too!
