I woke up to ice on the *inside* of my bedroom window. It felt like an 1800's time warp. I imagined myself as Susanna Moody (minus the wolves of course).
Sea thinks I'm a pansy. She made fun of me for wearing my snow boots when there was only an inch of snow. I didn't think it was unreasonable; However, it became the big joke. I thought I was tough stuff for even "braving" the snow, Victoria goes into lock down only a few inches.
People here are hard asses. No one complains much about the snow. They carry on about their daily lives: go to work, get groceries (imagine pushing a shopping cart through a foot of snow), and meet people for dinner. The schools don't even close unless it's minus 38. Minus thirty frickin' eight! That's nuts. Imagine walking to school like that. People also plug their cars in to warm up. Isn't that crazy? Maybe I am a bit of a pansy.
