The first Monday of 2014 and our winter continues to be fierce. With about 15 cm of snow last night the
snowbanks continue to get taller. A new deep freeze in temperatures is entering our region with tomorrow's high
to be minus 20. I don't' know about the wind chill - I don't want to know.
Hockey Tough weekend for Team Canada and all Canadian fans as our World Junior Team lost in the
Bronze Medal game in Malmo Sweden. In the end, these are young men ages 16 - 20 who are playing
their hearts out to represent their country. They are not making money still junior athletes yet as a country
including the media we put extraordinary pressure on them to produce and to win. In reality anything but a gold medal seems to be a failure. I think if as a Canadian you love the game of hockey, one should be happy that
other countries are getting better and better. It is good for the game.
House Back to Normal We spent yesterday taking down both inside and outdoor Christmas decorations. It is never an enjoyable task unlike putting them up. All our treasures full of Christmas memories are wrapped up and put away until next year. My artist husband took a photo of the decorations from our White Tree waiting to be boxed up. Their is rumour that it might be a painting. I think it would be a terrific.
Downton Abbey is back! Season 4 premiered last night. The story continues. Awesome series. It seems
that I have been waiting forever to see how the story continues. PBS also had a special on Doc Martin so I am hoping that will be soon starting again as well. Both of these TV shows are British TV at its best.
