Picture: Meg’s monthly photo spot
These are some things I’ve noticed…
- I no longer have to worry about the drought.
- It takes me now 15 minutes to get ready for the day.
- The highlight of the week is sauna time.
- Runners wear regular running clothes even in negative degree weather.
- My dad got in trouble for wearing too “large” a style of swim shorts and had to borrow speedo-like swimwear in order to go into the pool.
- I like being cold in the snow.
- I taught myself some algebra.
- I have no problem sharing a room and socks with my brother.
- Weetabix and Ribena are sold here too.
- I got a hat with a pom-pom on it – which is apparently all the rage here
Anyways, my mom and I have been walking around the lake closest to our house, well until it came available for us to walk across it instead. That was a very scary experience- however seeing some dogs prancing around on the snow-covered ice seemed to calm us down. I came up with the idea to stand and take a picture with the view of the lake, city, and trees; and then repeat it in that exact same spot on the same day, every month. That way we can take a step back and see how much everything here can change over 6 months.
