Where Has The Time Gone?

   It seems like November went in the blink of an eye. It's hard to believe the month is over Sunday, and we get ready for December, but it is.
   As I mentioned in yesterday's post (Out Like A Lion), the month ended on a stormy note. Anywhere from 10 to 20 cm of snow hit the region, with another 2 to 5 expected before the system moves away.
   And, as is seemingly a tradition for the month, bitterly cold arctic air will sweep in behind today. In fact, windchills tonight could dip below -40, and not recover much into the start of the new month. Just as long as I don't hear "polar vortex" for a while. That was the buzzword last year for the endless bitter cold we suffered through for weeks on end with very few breaks.
   At least in December, we get the holidays. And while it also marks the "official" start of winter, the sun will start rising earlier and setting later every day after the 21st. It won't be noticeable until some time in January, but we live in hope. Of course, living in Canada, we've just got 6 more months of winter to get through.
