Tradesies Anyone?

January in Alberta, bah-humbug. This morning we woke up to this:

winter in alberta

I debated posting a photo of the cold day here, remarking on how exposed skin can freeze within minutes of exposue. But who needs nor wants to see that?! So depressing. Instead, I stare longingly at this….. ahhhh.

beach

Think warm thoughts. Think tropics …

Hey! Anyone in warmer climates wanna do a tradesie with me? Please?
{said in my most desperate tone of voice, of course}

    I would LOVE to be there right now! It’s weird, we are having an unseasonably warm day today. Yesterday the ground was covered in snow, and today it is in the 60’s and all the snow is melted. It’s supposed to be covered again by Thursday. Wish Mother Nature would just hurry up and move summer right along here.

    We are going to Florida next month. Don’t know if it’s going to be beach weather, but it sure is going to be warmer than where you are right now. Wanna come?

    I had a lady come by this morning to buy something and when I opened the door to welcome her, I was blown away. I was not expecting that temperature. It’s so misleading outside with the sun.

    We’ve been having yo-yo weather… it can be anywhere from -30 to 0 in a week or less. On the one hand, I find it frustrating to keep switching between winter and fall jackets. On the other, when I’m being pelted with hail on my way to work one day I can tell myself it will warm up in a few days, lol.

    I’m in Florida now, for a few more days.
    Yesterday and today a high of 85*
    Tomorrow dropping 20*……..a high of 64* predicted!
    73* after that!
    Then, sadly home to Ontario, reality, work,
    (and snow)……although I heard they’re having record highs!
    I go while the going is good:)

    Oh, goodness that is cold! I’m not sure you’d like the humidity that comes with our 60 degree winter here in Florida ๐Ÿ™‚ Of course a cold front is moving in tonight and we’ll actually be in the 30’s.

    I need a travel break again too. Warm please. The rain here is appalling. I hate it. It’s not freezing right now which is weird weather, but honestly the rain is cold and I hate getting all wet and chilly taking kids to school. No fun at all.
