It's 8:25, light snow continues to fall and I have been up for over an hour. Evie just came downstairs and we are surprised by the snow we have gotten over the past two days, enough so I will be out there pushing snow again this morning.

| A Big Breakfast With Rich And Linda |
Yesterday was another busy and interesting day. We spent the night at my sister's so I was up early at her home on Lake Erie, taking spectacular morning photos of the gray sky, freezing lake. We were in no hurry to leave so we had an enjoyable morning, sitting around with our coffee until we got hungry and Rich got busy in the kitchen making scrambled eggs, bacon, and home fries. He also made blueberry muffins the day before so we had a feast. Their son, Richie, who lives up the street, stopped over with Hank, his lab, to say hi and shoveled the driveway for them. Their kids take good care of them.
We left around 11:30, stopped at Asman's on 200th street to pick up some Slovenian sausages, then drove to Chagrin Blvd to Trader Joes. We took our time stocking up on our favorites, making sure we didn't miss anything. After shopping, we did some browsing at a number of other stores, like Sur La Table and Anthropologie but nothing interested Evie. At 2:40, I had another appointment with my cardiologist in Ashtabula and it was quicker than usual. We had a good talk and I went home with a 30-day heart monitor and had a blood test but we were out of there by 3:30, arriving home by 5:30 to a snow-covered parking area.
We trudged through the snow and I put on my knee-high boots to walk back through the unshoveled walk and parking area. Once the car was unloaded, we put away our goodies, unpacked our bags, and said once again, how good it is to be home,. We had a great time at my sister's but still home is best.
Fortunately, Evie had thought ahead and had some chili she had frozen waiting in the refrigerator to be warmed up for dinner. We had it over linguini along with a salad and quickly fell back into our routine, watching Colbert, Jeopardy, some home improvement shows until it was time for bed.
