24 HRS.

In the past 24 HRS  since my last blog post I froze my ass off outside; it's the third day in a row with a wind-chill of - 25 C ( even the regular temp is still -18 C which is still bad enough) and it's one of those days it's so cold that it takes even longer to bundle up getting dressed for the cold to walk my dog than it takes actually being outside; he just quickly does his thing and runs back inside where it's warm and this morning  it was so cold by the time he had both did a pee and a shit standing on the snow for so long his poor little paws were frozen he could hardly even stand up any longer and I had to pick him up and wipe the snow off his feet and carry him back his little feet were so cold! I have tried putting boots on him before to keep his feet warm so he's not stepping on the snow or on the rock salt on the sidewalks which hurts his feet but he wasn't having any of it. I'm so hard-core I'm still out there smoking my weed though despite the cold, I just have to wear my armour to battle the winter cold: 2 shirts under my cozy Oodie  hoodie(I found out my friend F in Toronto also has one; he probably got it got as a Christmas gift,too?), 2 pairs of socks, flannel pants, mitts, wool hat, parka, warm Mukkluks(boots)etc. dress in layers and battle the cold but it is hard to try and keep my spliff lit when the howling wind keeps blowing it out and it's on days like this that I wish my family let me smoke inside.

I also heard on the Toronto news there was a fatal fire ( 4 people died and 5 or 6 escaped) in a house on Gainsborough Rd. and that was in the same area where I used to live and, in fact, the exact same  street that I had 7 or 8 friends growing up that all lived on that street so I wonder if it was anyone I knew, esp. as their parents would likely still be living in the same childhood home? Holy shit, I sure hope not! They never said the identities on the news but since I knew alot of families on that street it is possible....The second-oldest also got a new job in graphic arts and animation which is what she has her degree in and it's full-time too which will be good as currently she has 3 part-time jobs, and the oldest has joined the Reddit folks  investing in GameStop or GameShop or GameStore or whatever the heck it's called and he has a university degree in Business & Finance too which should be helpful as he knows about investing.

Buddy also had swelling under the scab on his face and when I touched it he winced in pain and some pus oozed out so I gently poked a tiny hole in it to drain out and then I cleaned it, dis-infected it and put some antibiotic ointment on it so it doesn't get infected  and he keeps rubbing it so it must be itchy, and I figured out once the youngest moves out for school it's likely my hubby will leave too(we're only together for the kids) I'll apply for disabily to get an income and no doubt I'll qualify with my depression, Asperger's, bipolar, and social phobia, and even my Rheumatoid Arthritis, there's no way I can work, and it also covers the full cost of all medication and travel to and from medical appt's so I won't have to worry about transportation, either, and it will cover everything my hubby currently does, and on just Friday he ordered 50 feet of ethernet wire or cable or whatever it's called for his office too and it arrived yesterday; so fast, even on a weekend, and I think I finally figured out who stole that 200$ or so my mother had saved up for the 19 YR old before she moved a couple of years ago back,too: it must have been the 17 YR old because for over a month now her allowance for doing chores has been left on the table  she never picked up and yet that $$$ has been sitting there this entire time and yet no one else stole it....and she wouldn't steal her own  $$$$ yet no one else has either and it's still there.....so it must have been her that took it the other time otherwise why wouldn't this $$$ have disappeared, too?
