Yep. Winter has arrived. The weather forecast calls this a "blowing snow warning", but I call it a full bore blizzard. Most of the roads in the province are rated as "red" due to the blowing snow and limited visibility. The good news for the moment is that it is a weekend and travel is relatively light.
I will be out shovelling the driveway again this morning, but will wait until it is light.
In addition to shovelling snow I have a number of major activities staring me in the face.
Model Trains: I am pretty sure my Ship It! files are corrupt and I will have to revert back to a previously saved version to continue. This is definitely disappointing as I was looking forward to running my trains rather than debugging my Ship It! files.
Mathematics: Each chapter in Strang's "Introduction to Linear Algebra" involves a substantial number of exercises, most of which require thought rather than simply following an algorithm. And I am only on chapter 1.
Technology: I am only on Lesson 4 (there are 17 lessons in total) of "Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Classroom in a Book".
Technology: I really want to spend some time relearning APL.
On a positive note, it is still early in the morning and I have lots of time in front of me.
