Beauty

I don't know what it is. Maybe living with a curmudgeon has made me go in the most opposite of ways he goes. Or, what he watches or, what he listens to. But, then again I am a woman and he's a man. And, we all know, guys are strange indeed. Unless you are this guy in the video.

I sure hope this link works for those reading my blog.
This is absolutely how I feel about my dog, Gracie.
And, just in case you have forgotten how beautiful she is....
Here's her picture.

January 1

I am sitting here freezing my arse off. I really can't believe how cold it is outside. That is a minus (-) 23. And, yes I know I live in Canada and should be used to this weather. Maybe it's just because I am getting older and tolerating it less and less.

As I sit here after looking at the local weather with the a recently updated weather report, I feel crazed. Not really but, here's an example of our weather for tonight.

Severe wind chill forecast tonight.

Arctic air associated with a bitterly cold ridge of high pressure continues to seep southwards across Southern and Eastern Ontario. This is expected to generate overnight lows ranging from minus 20 to minus 30. In addition a low pressure system near the Lower Great Lakes is expected to generate moderate northeasterly winds tonight and into Thursday. The combination of winds and Arctic air is expected to generate severe wind chill values (-40) tonight and then quite possibly again for Thursday night.

It is advised to dress warmly and cover any exposed skin as much as possible when heading outdoors.  NO REALLY?

I guess it could be worse. It could be snowing. 



A friend of mine, did one of those Polar Bear plunges for a local kids charity today. I called her nuts.  

 
 

Happy New Year to my friends and family

Ho ho ho and a very Merry Christmas

I am MIA

I am MIA as I am taking the summer off.
Well, at least most of it.
Hope y'all have a good one too.

Former Pro-GMO Scientist Speaks Out

Former Pro-GMO Scientist Speaks Out on the Real Dangers of Genetically Engineered Food

by Dr. Mercola
Who better to speak the truth about the risks posed by genetically modified (GM) foods than Thierry Vrain, a former research scientist for Agriculture Canada? It was Vrain’s job to address public groups and reassure them that GM crops and food were safe, a task he did with considerable knowledge and passion.
But Vrain, who once touted GM crops as a technological advancement indicative of sound science and progress, has since started to acknowledge the steady flow of research coming from prestigious labs and published in high-impact journals – research showing that there is significant reason for concern about GM crops – and he has now changed his position.

Spam

I have been getting alot of spam since my blog address was posted on Twitter.
(never have liked Twitter all that much and now even less so)
So went into my settings yesterday and with some help from a friend (L3), I changed up some of my settings about comments and spam.
I sure hope it helps.
If it doesn't than I'll be shutting this blog.
Crossing my fingers here.
