First snow, now ice

Well, the temperature is rising. Now we're averaging -1C instead of -15C. I'm so glad. I couldn't take the snow and cold anymore. But even with the rise in temperature, there's still dangerous spots on the roads - Ice! The snow that piled up over the week has started melting. But because it's still freezing point, the melted snow has turned to ice in some spots. One spot is right outside our apartment building entrance. Haiyo.... hubby and I were dancing like weird people coz we were rushing to get to work and as soon as both of us stepped out the building door, we immediately realized that the puddle of water we were standing in had some ice on the bottom. Jiggle, jiggle, wiggle, wiggle before we found our balance again. Lucky I didn't fall on me tushy. Tsk..tsk...

Thanks for those who voiced their concern over my safety. I really appreciate it. It's almost 10pm now and I gotta get to bed. Yes, I sleep very early now. Only coz I need to leave the house by 6:30am. Or else I get stuck in a horrible traffic jam. 45 minutes of driving is good enough for me. I have no desire to extend it to more than an hour. Plus, if I get early into work, I get to leave early too. So that's nice. :)
