Ja, our's is due on Wednesday. I have to pull some snow off the roof on Monday before it starts to melt.

Back when I worked construction I would choose Winter work and turn down Summer work if my bank account was in good shape. We had a saying back then, "when the going gets tough, the tough get going". I have mostly a desk job now with an air conditioned office so I don't turn down Summer work anymore.

AFAIK the coldest has yet to come. The last two weeks of January and the first two weeks of February can be quite cold. Usually by around the end of February, I've had just about enough of Winter.

As for Summer, we have a running joke around here. Someone will ask if you have any plans for this Summer to which the usual reply is "depends, if it lands on a weekend we just might BBQ".

thats good stuff, I cant rember a nov. dec jan. all this cold.
 
Yep, this the kind of winter that proves why
we are wood burners! There is no better way
to heat our home.
 
-2 here right now with 4 ft. of snow on the ground. I'm real glad I filled the 3 racks I built in the enclosed breezeway for wood over the Christmas weekend 'cause there is no way to get to the stacks out in the yard. I should have enough to get to the end of Feb. The snowbelt has been unusually brutal this winter.
 
Hit our first below zero of the season lasdt night at -3 °F .

All this talk of girly cords . . . quoting degrees below zero in Celsius is GURLY TEMPS!!! ;-P
 
We haven't had a night since Jan 1 that has been above 0F (-2F right now). Many nights in the -20 to -35F range.

Came home from a College Hockey game Div. 1 with temps outside -17 last night. Fired up the wood stove for the first time in 2-3 days (been burning the pellet stove) I was able to get the bedroom about 67 by morning.
