~Here in Edmonton Alberta   Canada~ Tis another very cold day~ The temperature is -22 degrees and with the wind at 19 k/mh~~~ it makes it feel as though it is -33  and thats *bone chilling * weather for sure  ~ Well ~we are certainly used to this ~or at least should be ~living here all our lives  ~ But we do actually wait for the nice warm weather to show up too~ *S*

 When it is cold   ~~ you can still enjoy the outdoors  ~ Dress up in layers   ~ Nice and warm  ~ Go out there  ~and clean off the walks   ~ Get a bit of excercise  ~ If you are feeling  that it is getting you energized and you want more   ~ Hey ~clean off your neighbours walks ~  ` Thats always a kind and wonderful gesture  ~ Then~ if you still have a ton of energy ~  head out to the river valley~ and do a bit of cross country skiing ~

 If you dont want to go that far~~  Maybe fill your bird feeders ~  walk to the supermarket for something that you would later be driving there for  ~There you are ~  Then finally get back~   make a cup of hot chocolate  ~ sit down and look out the window  and realize that you beat the cold   ~
