I've finished the laundry, and tallied my taxi and subwayreceipts and my movie and theatre ticket receipts. I'm about to work on the last huge four groups.

Neighbor plowed, and I snowblew for at least two hours. The killer is the wind today, causing lots of drifting snow where you've already cleaned, and plenty of frosty windburn.  We could get out now, but there's no place to go and they don't want people on the roads.

USPS cancelled mail delivery in all six New England states.  Danbury, where I live, got an average of 20 inches, and I measured close to that in my driveway.  I can post a few pictures eventually.

That pic is crazy of the snow covering the door.
Too crazy. Keep it far from me.

DRvixmom, I hate this cinemascope, and all i get from that endless URL is an article about a kid dying of carbon monoxide. What gives? I will read no more posts, nor post any more, until we are on Page 4.

We wound up with a little over a coating of snow in my neck of the woods.  I won't even have to go out and shovel--the bright sun is doing a fine job in melting what is on the sidewalk, pathway, steps and car.


Would that be The Royal We, Dan?

Back from a sparsely attended book fair.  More dealers than usual at the Santa Monica venue, and, as always, some very pretty books along with some very outrageous prices.

I have spent the afternoon listening to an audiobook and working on a small knitting project that's part of Mary Linda's birthday present.  Her birthday is Monday, but we're not seeing them until next Saturday to celebrate, so I have plenty of time to finish it.

DR elmore I just shrunk my entire page.  The print is small but at least I'm not in cinemascope.

I had a great swim today.  I now swim for an hour, much better than the 30 minutes I could barely do when I first began swimming.  Back then they wouldn't even let me in the swim lanes. 

I got lucky.  I was sneaking into the single lane as the woman previously in it was getting out.  A man walked up to get in at the same time.  I've learned etiquette says he gets the lane, not me at the other end of the pool so I quickly moved back to the middle lane I was sharing with two other people.  The man kindly gave me the single lane.

It was extra nice to have my own lane as one of the swimmers kept passing me.  I like to do stretches in the shallow end and tread water plus exercised in the deep end.  It is easier to go at my own pace when I'm alone or sharing a lane with swimmers that move a bit closer to my speed.

Was it that e-mail address that put elmore into cinemascope?

I believe we have had exactly one day of snow flurries this winter.

I wish that DR Danise would drop in one of these days and report how she is doing.

It still makes me mad that nothing has happened about her house.

I really thought that Anderson Cooper was our great hope.

Well, actually Anderson Cooper remains my great hope; but that has nothing to do with Danise.

We are having a dull weekend here in the Northwest.  No rain, but a heavy cloud cover, so that we have very little sunshine.
