Jenny - We are supposed to get all the rain portion. City water has spent the day clearing away catch basins in flood prone areas. They are still clearing away the snow from the streets. Most of the work is being done in the capital (Halifax) I live outside of Halifax. The sidewalks are NOT done and the side streets are…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEScBcg_m_c&t=241 I don't care for the language he uses, but this pretty much sums up what we've been going through over here.

Well it is a little hard to run when your sidewalks looks like this (and streets aren't much better) We are experiencing one of the worse winters for snow fall in recent memory. It just keeps adding up. We haven't had the freeze/thaw cycle we've had the last few years where we get a big snow fall and then it melts. We got…

The snowbank behind me is actually much taller. I was taking this at an angle as it was a selfie. This is the snow bank behind me. Somewhere there IS a sidewalk. The sign says it all!!!! The reason I was walking up the street on one of the busiest streets where I live. This was chest to shoulder height. Some of it would be…

Over 85cm (33.5 inches - that's nearly 3 FEET!!!!) of snow fell yesterday. That's on top of the just over 20cm we got on Sunday. Buses still haven't been put back on the road, so I'm off for the morning at least. I just need to wait to see if the buses can go back on the roads this afternoon and what my boss says. There's…

Very true!! I ordered it in for delivery the other day as I didn't feel like cooking. Yeah. Needles to say I went over my calorie goal, but their fries are so good!!!

The fact that I should have spent the extra money and got a digital scale. I'm guessing when that arrow points between two lines as to what it actually us. My biggest surprise was when I weighed fries ( they fit in my calorie goal!). There were so few for a serving! I think it was like 7 or 8 fries.

Jenny - This year we've seen the worse snowfall in about 12 years or more. The last time I remember this much snow in a winter is the first year after moving back from Florida in 2004. There were winters like this when I was growing up but over the last several years its been a lot milder. There are areas in PEI and in New…

:'( Winter just wont go away!!! :'( :'( :'( We ended up getting 21cm on Sunday. There is another 15-25cm coming tomorrow night into Wednesday. Sigh. Winter just won't let go of it's icy grip on us! I am getting desperate to get out and get running!!!

I am desperate to get outside and run! However, with the condition of the sidewalks, I can't! They were JUST starting to get clear, clear enough to feel safe running and we got 21cm of snow on Sunday. There is another 15-25cm possible on Tuesday into Wednesday. Sigh. Winter just won't let go!! I need to get out! I"m…

June 22

I eat whole wheat. What I get depends on the whatever is on sale the week I get it. I also like to make it in my bread maker. The one on my bread maker always tastes better. (Especially when it first comes out of the bread maker.)

Storm seems to be over. Not sure how much we ended up getting. I know this morning around 7am they were saying there was about 20cm down but it was still falling. It changed to freezing rain late in the morning. Thankfully we didn't get the normal cycle of rain on top of that as well. I just hope that by tomorrow morning…

My forecast for the next five days: Sigh. I know it's still winter, but winter certainly doesn't need to remind us that it's still winter! The first day of spring might only be a week away, but it certainly doesn't look or feel like it!! At this rate there will still be snow on the ground on my birthday in June!!!!

Happy Birthday Jenny!! Hope your day was great!! :smiley:

I was able to get to the dentist on Wednesday and get my tooth fixed and got lectured for not having the crown put on THEY want to do and say I need. I'm sorry, but I don't have $1,100 to have that done!! When you don't have insurance, you have to pay for it all yourself. Wednesday's visit was $348 and I owe all of it…

My favorite is the Boston Cream. I've been going to Tim's to much lately. (Bus stop for my new job lets me off RIGHT in front of one.) It's like a magnetic drawing me in. I blame it on the Roll up the Rim to Win contest. Which I never win more then food prizes, if I am lucky enough to get that!

Go to My Home and then go to Check In

I can resist them simply due to the price. I refuse to pay over a dollar for one little egg. The resistance is harder at the dollar store as they are $0.79 there. That's when I weaken. Been good so far. I've only had 3 (and one of the new fudgeo flavored ones - didn't really taste like a fudgeo)

So I officially turned in my gym membership (after paying the fee as it was within my first year.) I told myself I would get up in time to workout before work, I've overslept every day this week. Sigh. Need to get back at it. Spent the evening cleaning, but I can see my desk again! Now I can go to bed and get up in the…

I am so sick of snow!!!! We got more of it today. (But then it warmed up and turned to rain and then cleared up and the sun was shining by the time I got off work - all in the space of about 5 hours) I so can't wait for spring and warm weather to melt all this snow. It's just so gloomy out. This weekend I need to pack away…

I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D I start on Monday. The timing could not have been more perfect. I got two weeks severance pay from my last job. That ended today. I start Monday. It's perfect timing. No stress or worries about how I will pay my bills! I'm also getting a higher pay then what I was getting. Much…

I have a follow up interview from the interview on Tuesday!!! Tomorrow at 11am. It's starting to look really promising!!

This is where I catch the bus. Somewhere under that is a bench for sitting and waiting for the bus. This is the parking lot of at one of the nearby grocery stores. The bank on the sidewalk are about shoulder height on me. (I'm 5'3") The worse part? There is more coming in Thursday. I am so ready for spring! Interview went…

I have a job interview tomorrow morning!!!!! So excited! Just freaking about what suit to wear (light gray or dark gray) with what blouse (white, light purple or dark purple) and what to do with my hair!

Amy - will more then happily pack some of this snow up and send it to you! Jenny - I will have to take some pictures when I am out later - like tomorrow! At home gym day! I'm not attempting those sidewalks. I just need to wait for the living room to get warmer!

I am ready for tomorrows storm. We can now possibly get up to 50cm of snow! That's over a foot and a half of snow!!! There's all ready a pile of cancellations for tomorrow. Including the transit system! THAT is certainly a surprise! They almost never pull buses off the roads. In the eight years I've been living in the…

I know that health insurance can be cheaper for non-smokers, but I've never heard of a health insurance that overs lowers rates if your BIMI is below something.

I told myself I would go to the gym today. I woke up discouraged about not going to work after all and couldn't make myself go. I then made cookies. I ate a few to many. :( I was making to give most of them to a friend who is moving away. I should have given him more!
