First Snowfall of the Season

 Well we woke up to snow today and the girls were very excited.  They even called Grandma to show her and talk about it.  Hubs was not as impressed since he's the one that is going to have to clean it up.  I like the snow but it could have held off for a few more weeks and I'd have been okay.  It's not super cold out but I'm not sure it's going to get warm enough to melt this at all.

Work has been busy but I'm getting through all the stuff that arrived while I was off last week.  I've been lucky in that my first two days back were not stuffed full of meetings but that changes for the rest of the week.  There are just so many things that need to be looked at and decisions made and even though I'm not the one that has to make them there is a need on a few to provide my input and opinion.  It means I get a lot of little calls throughout the day to answer questions or provide an insight. It's nice to be needed but I have no illusions that I'm essential to anything.  I'm well aware that anyone can be replaced and thankful that I've not been caught up in some of the restructuring that has happened over that last while.

I think we are going to go vote in the advance polls tonight.  We are hoping it won't be too busy and will keep us out of the crowds on actual election day.  We have the provincial election on the 26th and the civic election on the 9th so there is lots of campaigning and door knocking and flyers happening.  I've mostly made up my mind on all the options so it should be a quick in and out.

I've just realized that I haven't eaten anything today.  I'm not feeling too hungry but I don't want to get a headache from lack of food either.  If I remember to take my pills this is what happens.  They stop the urge to eat and so I forget to feed myself even while I'm feeding the children.

Speaking of the children, they got into a scrap this morning.  I'm not sure what caused it but there was yelling and punching and hair pulling going on right where I can see it.  I gave a yell myself and sent them to do things alone and it seems to have been ended and they've been best friends again for the rest of the day.  It amazes me to watch them fight and then move on without any grudges.  I could learn a thing or two from it actually.

We are having a huge spike in Covid cases right now so that is not good.  The health authority has said if we keep as we are then they are going to start restricting the province again and no one wants that.  We've just gotten into the rhythm of things now and I'd hate to see that ended because some people can't be bothered to follow the rules that are laid out.
