The Fog

Front Door View

It has been a white winter here on Vancouver Island, and no, I am not talking about snow although it did snow a couple of times in December.  I am talking about fog.  Yesterday was clear and crisp but the day ended in fog.  Today it is 9:30 am and we have lots of fog.  Thick as pea soup (as Mom would say).  You can hardly see the house across the street.  We have had a lot of this this winter.  Usually it just rains in the winter on Vancouver Island.  We have had some rain but not nearly the usual amount, just a lot of fog.  I am not complaining though as lived through enough bitterly cold and snowy winters - no more.    When the fog clears we are going to go down to the ocean for some fresh air.

I have been cooped up at the office all this week covering for someone on holidays.  I worked 2x as much as I normally do and was doing the job of two people all week so am exhausted.  They have tried hiring a third person for our small office a couple of times and are on round three of interviews this week.  I agreed to this week of vacation cover as the other girl really needed some time off.  I just wish they would hire a third person though as this is getting stressful, and although I like my second job, I only want to be there 20 hours a week.    My first job is working for our company and a lot of that work got pushed aside this week, which is not good, so it is catch-up time this weekend.  As for those Christmas lights hanging off the house, yeah, we need to take those down this weekend too.

And what are you doing this weekend?
