Have you noticed how fast a year seems to go? It doesn't seem two minutes when I was welcoming in the new year of 2009. I am seeing in the new year with my first cold of 2009  (man flu as many call it).

Tomorrow will be 2010.... It wasnt that long ago that we were all worried about 2000 being the down fall of western civilisation! Now we have only two more years until 2012 and the end of the world !

.

Apparently it will be so because the Mayan's couldn't be bothered to keep going on the calendar calculations). I can just hear the calendar calc team leader saying "I am fed with with this", "lets just say Dec 31st 2012 the world ends". "I mean no one will be able to check and I am pretty sure everyone will be happy to stop calculating the calendar and get on with human sacrifices or something more useful".

OK back to something more real. Snow and we could be in line to get alot this weekend. CBC (like BBC) put this article out today, sounds like it could be fun this weekend (although the weathernetwork is only forecasting about 30-35cm). We have a full store of wood for the stove, Generator, Camping Stove, snow blower, chain saw, axe, wooly hat, gloves etc... we are ready and if things get bad and food runs low,  Kathryn has left the rabbits with us  and to top up the pot I can shoot a couple of squirrels/crows with my new air rifle.

Well with that cheery thought in your heads, I want to take this opportunity to wish you all a prosperous, happy and health 2010!

My next post will be a 2009 round up and a look forward to 2010 with some resolutions, forecasts and expectations.
