We ended up getting about and inch or so of snow on Monday, about 12 hours ahead of the forecast - VDOT got caught up a bit short on that one, then yesterday about 2-3 inches, on schedule at least, so the roads are already very well treated this morning and I was able to get out for my beloved weekend Starbucks. And the sun is out, and thanks to the snow, there is more natural light in the house this morning than there is in the middle of July.
Though it is only TWENTY THREE FREAKIN' DEGREES OUT THERE. 🥶🥶🥶 Definitely heavy coat time, even my thickest hoodie wouldn't cut it today. Thank you Columbia for making very nice 3-in-1's and in a color that apparently no one liked so it ended up on clearance at REI last spring. Even if I've only needed to wear it like, 3 times since I got it - really good purchase.
Stone Green is a great color!
Also, I don't remember when I did it, but I'm glad I setup a basket for gloves/hats/scarves next to the door - earlier this week, I'd briefly forgotten I'd even done it and had a moment of "Aw, shit, where are my gloves?" then remembered, WAIT, THERE IS A BASKET FULL OF THEM!
I got this very pretty shot of the LilyMonster yesterday and I put it on Mastodon and it got boosted by a couple big accounts and well, she is a hit. I don't really pay attention to boosts/likes, but when your phone won't stop beeping, you have to look - 141 reposts and 592 likes. That is a bit bonkers, but the Fediverse does love their cats!
So regal!
I have to do some office work this weekend, and there are also all the various and sundry weekend to-do's - so the big question is, will I use the housework to avoid the office work, use the office work to avoid the housework, or just sit on the couch avoiding both? 🤣
My little to-do box is still working well for my dysfunctional brain, though, and I've added a couple stickers I got for Christmas - I look at it and tell myself, "You're a peliCAN not a peliCAN'T!" (And yes, I laugh every damn time I think it.)
You are never too old for stickers
OK, I have dithered around more than enough this morning, as it is now technically the afternoon. 😬
Time to go get more ticked off the list beyond "Brush teeth, wash face" - you have a fantastic day!!
