-26 This morning. Cats needed water, birds needed seed, and I needed to bring in a forty pound bag of magic poop powder (wood pellets). On with the snow boots, a hat I wasn’t going out there long, so I just wore my hoodie and sweat pants.

I noticed a beautiful day, ice fog was retreating, I was up late taking care of the fire, It is noon now. Sunday morning. I am having a great cup of coffee. Doing my best to forget the pain of last night.

And yup -40 again tonight the extreme cold warning continues. I will be chopping wood. Going to do that soon, so I can enjoy the rest of my Sunday.

Just got in from chopping. I got tired half-way through, My way of resting take a walk in three feet of snow to get a picture. Reminded me when I was a pro-photographer. Now I just take snapshots with my phone.

I don’t know how or why. I just went through another hour of extreme jaw and ear pain. I ate another Lara bara . I checked the ingredients nothing but peanut butter and dates. Something in the bars are causing me to have a painful reaction. It doesn’t make any sense. I don’t have an allergy to peanuts or dates. Twice now the same reaction to the same thing, it’s no coincidence. I will keep doing research. Hopefully I can find and answer.
