The prevailing theme this week has been WORK. Monday wasn't bad, but Tuesday started at 2 a.m. and it didn't improve much before the end of the day today.
On top of that, Mallory had a stomach bug yesterday, so there was some juggling of work and daycare that had to be done.
The overriding thought that's been on my mind this week has been to get outside to enjoy the cold (once it moderated a little) before it's gone. Early Tuesday morning it hit -17 C, and all I could think of (besides my work) was that the sudden deep freeze must have made for some awesome ice on the creek. It has been two years since the last time it froze over into a suitably skatable surface. This afternoon at work I was just itching to get out the door to test it out. I did not get out as early as I would have liked, but there was daylight left when I got home with the kids and we snow suited up right away and got down to the creek. We got about six inches of snow today that covered the ice but it was of the light-as-a-feather variety that was easy enough to push aside. Some neighbours joined us and we were out there until dark. Liam and Chad lingered after dark, using the reflection of the street lamps on the snow to see by. We have roughly 48 hours left before we get hit with balmy temperatures and rain, and we are not going to waste one precious minute of ice time before that happens.
It was exactly what I needed at the end of the day today. Something good.

The wonderful uniform tattoo online style and design need to to start with have a high degree of harmonization unity microscopic of imagining and macroscopic imagining. Costume design object, the uniforms of course, isn't any exception, and it free shipping stores is to beautify the folks who confirmed their class and temperament; though on the other hand, the uniforms to face a gaggle, the designer should be capable to precisely forecast sure people superimposed fusion, no matter if express the spirit and philosophy from the entire team.
