I was in a training course all today and didn’t get a chance to see the bit of sun that we had. It’s colder today than it was been. At 29 below it doesn’t take long for your body to get cold. It’s a lucky thing that there’s no wind or it would be really uncomfortable. Just standing around outside is the worst. Your body doesn’t produce much heat so you get cold quicker. The cold air impales you like a thousand tiny daggers of ice. You bleed heat.

I got a couple of new leads on snowmobiles today. I haven’t had a chance to check them out but I’m pretty confident I’ll have one before the winter is over.

We still don’t have a satellite dish, so we spend our former “TV watching time” watching a few different TV series on DVD. It’s great not to have to watch commercials. One thing I did get today was the wireless router that I ordered from an electronics store in the south. Now I can get internet access anywhere in the house on the laptop. It’s great to be free of all those wires. You’d think my having the freedom to roam anywhere in the house and write this blog, that it would get longer. It didn’t work for this one!

That’s it for now. More tomorrow.

Cheers!
