🥶 Ottawa just switched to freezing mode, and this is just the beginning! 

What’s the most dreadful part of winter for you? 

🥶 Stepping outside and instantly freezing
❄️ Scraping ice off the car every morning
🚗 Waiting for the car to warm up
🌬️ Wind that cuts through ALL your layers
🧤 Losing one glove (always one!)
🌨️ Slushy sidewalks that soak your shoes
🧊 Slipping on hidden ice patches
🥣 Getting dark before 5 PM
🚶‍♀️ Walking a dog in -20°C
💨 The first face-freezing wind chill
🛒 Carrying groceries in a snowstorm
💦 Snow melting inside the house and making puddles
🛏️ Leaving your warm bed in the morning
🧊 Frozen fingers even with gloves on
