So much snow!! And other things...

Not my yard, I wish! Source: WeHeartIt.com

So the weather is out of control everywhere in North America. Snow in Texas? What is that?

We don't live down there anymore, but it's not much better up in Ontario. If anything, it's a bit more ridiculous. We had days that broke high and low records (for like, fifty years!) in the same week. -25*C, and 10*C within three days of each other. And then it snowed some more, after our backyard looked like a swamp. The dog is probably really confused, all of her toys are under the snow now.

It's all due to melt again this weekend. And we're in January!

Despite the wild weather, we've been having a good time. Our kiddo is loving the first serious snow that he's gotten to experience (the last "real winter" we had, he wasn't able to walk yet, so it doesn't count), my husband and I are making plans for our anniversary/renewal in summer, and I'm personally working on maintaining my health. I realize I'll never be "cured", but I'm coming to terms with it. Living with pain every day isn't a picnic, but if I stay positive, it's not so bad. For every bad day I have, I eventually have some good ones. And that's what I look forward to.

In the middle of a good read right now (should have a review later today or tomorrow!), have a painting class tomorrow, and generally just letting my happy nerd side roll with it.

Looking forward to the rest of 2018! Hopefully it's not all cold and lousy!
