Not last week but the week before we had -32 weather (-40 with windchill) but now it's hovering at around -20ish. The sun is setting at around 3:30 and rising at around 9:30. What have we been doing for fun you ask? Well I went to yoga and the tree lighting ceremony. Here is a couple pics from the tree lighting. It is Kalina and Meagan in the second pic:

Not this past week but the week before I went to Edmonton for an MRI. It was pretty sweet but quick! It was so weird being around civilization again haha. I was in West Edmonton Mall and there was probably probably double the amount of people in Smith in that mall. The lights, the sounds.. so overwhelming lol! Traffic lights and buildings higher than 2 stories! Here is a pic from my hotel room with the clouds hanging really low:

My MRI results came back and they ended up scanning the wrong part of my spine so we will see what will happen now :). Maybe another trip down there.

Here is some pictures from last Friday. The first one is of myself, Katie on the left and Sheena in the middle. The second is of Kalina and Meagan. All amazing girls!:

Alex and I decided to go for a drive yesterday about 30 minutes outside of town. We told Kalina and her boyfriend where we were going just in case we got stuck and didn't come back to Smith that night. It didn't go great but we managed to make it a little ways down a road that wasn't plowed:

We got a little bit stuck but it wasn't too bad. Katie and Adam went to Hay River the same day and got stuck on the way back to Smith. You have to be careful because there is no cell service. Very wise to wear your long johns and bring food, water, blankets and candles. We were too cool for that and didn't do any of the above... maybe next time!

Things have been going well up here. Nothing to complain about! Still waiting to hear if my contract has been extended since it's up in two weeks. A little stressful but thats ok! A couple friends have started working for the GNWT now and are loving it!

The Governor General of Canada is coming to Smith this week. I knew him from when he was the president of the University of Waterloo, kind of weird he is the GG now!

That's all I really have for tonight. I don't have big plans this week. Just working and studying. I need to decorate two houses for xmas. I have to go on a shopping trip to Fields and buy decorations before they all sell out! Hope the season is picking up for everyone down south!
