Hey Jason, how are we doing?

Hanging in there, yeah, we're I guess we're halfway through the meteorological winter and yeah, it kind of feels like it. I feel like it's all all downhill if you want to look at it that way until spring comes, but it's been a challenge, but we haven't had a winter like this in

years so I guess I've gotten off easy. I feel like you're getting your normal

winter plus Toronto's because there's no snow on the ground here I think it's

it's about zero today.

Wow no snow. It's not at all what I was expecting from January.

Yeah. Especially because I thought you know coming back around Christmas with the

huge storm that

was the Midwest and the lakes and such. I thought that we were that was going to be the start of real winter.

Yeah. I thought the other day like I was considering putting some air in my bike tires and making you know just

bundling up and going for a bike ride because it was like five or six Celsius like yeah as long as your ears and your fingers are covered you're probably going to be okay right no no risk of ice in the in the shade where you're gonna slip slip or something yeah I mean it could change

tomorrow yeah by the time this episode comes out I could be under two feet of snow yeah

you know I feel like once you get to mid January you're kind of on the upswing so I'm I'm

optimistic we've got a warm week ahead and whatever but I've been trying to make the

most of it I get out cross-country skiing a fair amount but it's a lot of shoveling and then our

roof started leaking from the ice buildup around the the softets and the gutters and

so we had to have a guy come and steam all the ice off the roof a couple days ago and it's you know it's just been full on
