    Good Monday morning all. The weather is NASTY out there today...snowing and blowing again, but wind gusts are up to 90 km per hour. It's currently -8 deg C, but this weather system is bringing in a cold front. By tomorrow morning it will feel like -35 with the wind chill! Yuck, is winter EVER going to end???
    My DH has to go away for business early tomorrow morning...I hate when that happens!! But luckily it doesn't happen often. Only 4 times in the (almost) 21 years together.
    Have a great day all.

    A very good aftermorning all! Just left my sister at the bus stop so she can start to make her trip back to Ireland. Have a very enjoyable few days in her company and was sad to see her go. I will see her again in September though for her wedding so that's not so long away :)

    Weather is starting to warm up it seems, lots of rain yesterday. The amount of snow this winter wasn't even in the same league as snow last winter. Things are definitely getting warmer.

    Current weather: 6 deg C / 43 deg F
    Currently listening to: RTE Radio 1 Ireland

    Have a great Tuesday y'all!

    Mild and sunny here today so I've been out playing in the dirt all morning. Just had a shower and an early lunch so that I can get back outdoors for some more fun. Then I'll have another shower and a cuppa. :D

    Good Morning all. A glorious day here. Things blooming-daffodils, hawthorne, forsythia, spring magnolias, pussy willows and pansies. Finally! I'm out to cut a lot of pussy willow branches to drag indoors. Don't you just love those little gray catkins? My black one is just starting to open too.

    Good Morning/afternoon everyone -- 37 and sunny here this morning. Going to get up to about 63, so it should be lovely. Seeing some daffodils, forsythia, and tulip trees in bloom around here too. Have a nice day.

    Good Tuesday morning all. I must admit after reading everyone's posts this morning, I'm feeling very jealous! You are all enjoying nice weather and working in your yards...it's currently -25 deg C here (-12 deg F) feeling like -35 deg with the wind chill. At least the sun is shining today and the winds have eased back a bit. Yesterday's winter storm caused chaos here in Ontario, with one of our major highways still closed since lunch time yesterday. 75 vehicle pile up stopped traffic in both directions. In another county, ALL the roads were closed due to blowing snow and drifting. Cold front will pass through later this evening and we will have milder weather starting on Thursday. RAIN!
    DH left at 5 am for his business trip. My dog must know I'm a little nervous...she's been pacing all morning.
    Have a nice day all :)

    Good morning all. Chilly and sunshiny here. Supposed to get warmer later and stay in the 70's all week. Still lots of work to do inside here. Pounding the keyboard for hours a day. Wanna go play outside.

    I hope you can take frequent breaks to get out there, Jan.

    It's a bright and beautiful morning here on the coast.
    Still a bit cool, but the thermometer is climbing, mid 50's expected this afternoon,
    but tomorrow is forecast to be 10 degrees warmer. :)

    Your weather sounds ferocious, Netty.
    My hubby travels alot for work, so I know how nerve wracking that can be,
    especially when the weather is foul.
