Let it snow!

I've been searching round all the charity shops in Fredericton for snow gear for us all. Ski jackets, ski pants and snow boots are very expensive so I've had my eyes and ears open for bargains. We've now all got pants and boots and just 3 coats left to find, our Whitby coats will have to do for now!
My car had 2 flat tires in 2 weeks. It's so funny putting on the spare tire which is called the donut, it's tiny and really thin and only meant for getting you to the garage and definately not fast or long driving. I got the first tire changed trying to eeek out the time till I had to purchace snow tires, when the second one went I relented and changed to 4 snow tires- not a cheap day!
Josh has always said it would snow in October (even when we were baking in 40 degrees heat!). Well we woke on 31st Oct to SNOW!!!!! Yes the real white stuff, we had flurries for 2 days but it didn't settle. Since then it's rained and rained, it's a good job it wasn't snow or we'd be buried under about 6 feet of it by now. Today we woke to snow flurries again but it was bright sunshine by lunch.
I've gone practical for David's birthday and bought him a chainsaw! He came last night to choose one and has been playing with it today getting our woodpile abit healthier!
