Nearly Back To Winter.

As mentioned in yesterday’s Blog, we were experiencing High Winds most of the day. According to the Weather Guessers and the Radar they would diminish throughout the night. I have also mentioned before how the Bedroom Windows in our Apartment, were installed when this building had been built, so the cold air easily seeps in. The outside temperature just after midnight was 61 F (16 C). I kept waking most of the night because once my feet are cold, there is no way I can sleep.

By 7:30, I was tired of laying in bed, awake and shivering because my feet were so cold, so I simply got up to start my day. Just getting out of Bed and walking into the Livingroom, my feet instantly started to warm up. When I looked at The Weather Network just before 8:00 this morning, the temperature had dropped down to 43 F (6 C) thanks to 35 MPH (56 KLH) Southwest Winds gusting to 50 MPH (80 KLH). This afternoon it would drop to 37 F (3 C) with more Southwest Winds of 27 MPH gusting to 44.

Kathy joined me before 9:00 where we had Yogurt Cups and Breakfast Bars, before taking our Coffees to our Computers. We discussed what we would do after lunch as a way of getting away from the noise the Wind was still making here.

After a quick trip to empty our Recycle Containers into the Bins outside, I added another layer to try to warm up. Kathy immediately did the same before we headed out and she still felt cold by the time she reached the Car.

Our first stop was to Guardian Storage to collect our Mail, since we stayed home on Friday the 13th and forgot to go on Saturday. Mostly at this time of year, we are waiting for T4 Slips so we can get our Income Tax Returns filed. Today we hit the Mother Load.

We were starting to feel quite hungry so we stopped at a nearby Tim Horton. They had been advertising a Limited Time Offer on the television so we thought that we would give it a try. Even though I explained exactly what we wanted, that was not what we got and it cost a lot more than the advertised price. The food was good but that type of service sucks.

Our next stop was Dollarama to replenish Cough Drops and Brisk Iced Tea. Afterwards we thought about going to the grocery store, but the parking lot was packed, so we headed for home.

I dropped Kathy at the front entrance, before I parked the Car. I then used our Folding Two-Wheeled Shopping Cart to bring things upstairs to the Apartment. Kathy had turned on the Television and the “6 o’clock Local News” was just starting. There were a number of things happening in our area. There is still a chance of more Wind and Flurries tomorrow.

We later watched “Forensic Files” for entertainment.

To all those who plan on enjoying St. Patrick’s Day Celebrations tomorrow, remember to drink responsibly.

Our outdoor temperature is Below Freezing and there are Flakes going by our Balcony.
