No, that's not the beginning of a joke...LOL! I'm curious and wondering how many Canadians are in this group. I live in Alberta. It's dang cold right now, and apparently it is forecasted to remain that way all week (-25)ish. Sad We got hit hard with a ton of snow in the last couple of days. Wishing I was in Hawaii right now! lol

Hello Nancy ~~~

I am not sure exactly how many Canadians we have here in the forum but I do know there are some.

Hopefully, they will see this and post to let you know.

Winter has finally come to Ohio also as my body is protesting the bitter cold we re having right now. Once it gets cold and stays cold instead of the up and down temps we ve been having, I should be much better.

We are having our first ""serious"" snow flurries this morning but of course, we don t get the ""dump"" snow as you do, I don t think.

I always get excited about the first ""official"" (deep) snow but then can t wait until April and Spring ...LOL !!!

Stay warm and safe ~~~

I'm in South Dakota which is pretty close to Canada. I love hockey and cant stand football. We use canadian bacon on our pizzas. Does that make me sort of Canadian?

Toronto Ontario Canada here, so blustery and icey out today, bad storm yesterday. Today lake effect snows and wind that cuts like a knife. I guess winter finally found its way to Toronto.

Keeping warm today LARGE cuppa Java anyone?

Almost everyone worries about what to say to people who are grieving. But knowing how to listen is much more important.

Oh I'll bet its something horrible. But then I had to declare bankruptsy over all the medical bills that I had incured over the last ten years. What is the medical bankruptsy rate in Canada? It's like anything else in life. Every positive has it's negative. This for instance is a great batch of people, but to get to hang out with you guys I have to have fibromyalgia. It's a fair trade, but a trade off none the less.
