It’s 9:20 am and I just remembered I’m supposed to blog today.
Yikes.
We are in a long stretch of subzero crappy weather and we’ve lost all sense of dates and time. It’s frigging cold and we’re sick of it. We feel extremely housebound and restless. Our heads are congested, we don’t feel well, the air is extremely dry, and we’re ready to scream. (Yes, I do have a humidifier running. Not a big help at the moment.)
It will start to warm up ever so slightly tomorrow. Ever so slightly.
Don is currently completely covered with an afghan, wearing one of his wool caps. I am in my pajamas, with a hooded sweatshirt on, also covered by an afghan.
The only plus is that every day this week has been sunny and the combination of sunny skies and snow brings bright sunlight into the house. Grateful for that, for sure.
Don has a gig tonight, which, given the temps, he’s not looking forward to. But he’ll do it.
I’m trying to keep myself occupied. I’ve been trying not to spend any money so I haven’t ordered a new puzzle. I may cave today. I can only read so much and, frankly, it’s been hard to concentrate lately. A $20 puzzle to preserve my sanity? Hmmm.
I think I’ve talked myself into it.
I’m reading The Cold Cold Ground by Adrian McKinty. It’s about a detective in Ireland during “The Troubles.” I need dedicate a bigger chunk of time to it today so I can get a rhythm going.
What are you reading?
Stay safe.
Happy Friday.
Michigan has started to warm up a little and stopped snowing today. Hopefully, better weather is heading your way.
I am reading The Wedding People by Alison Espach. I think it would be good made into a movie with some quirky characters.
Take care and stay warm
Thanks so much, Marilyn.
Stay safe.
I’m late to the game, but I just finished The Plot by Jean Hanff Korelitz. It was terrific. Now on the The Sequel. I also read The Latecomer, also by her. How have I been so remiss? Too many books, I guess.
Stay warm
Too many books, too little time, Barbara.
Thanks so much.
Stay safe.
