It's Back...Winter

9:05

I woke to a dusting of snow, heavy winds and 24º as the weather gods cannot make up their minds. The lake's still frozen, 18 inches in some places, so the fishermen still trudge out. It's 9:15 and I just returned from breakfast. I had to park my car near the mailboxes because the road is closed with trucks and excavators as they continue to work on putting in sewer lines. 

Wednesday was a full morning for me. We had our coffee and breakfast early so I could be off to yoga at 9:30. It was a rigorous class and I worked up a sweat. Since Evie did a big shopping trip on Tuesday, I came home straight away. A pot of veggie soup was simmering on the stove and a couple of egg salad sandwiches were ready for my lunch. So I had a great lunch as I watched my series. 

Late Afternoon

4:59

Because of the weather and my lack of mojo, I didn't get in a walk or hike during the afternoon but read and napped, always getting them in. Evie, too, after a busy morning relaxed and neither of us accomplished much until 5:00 when we both showered and got ready to go out to dinner.

Our neighbors picked us up at 6:00 and drove over to the Viking Club for wings and things. It was busier than usual but we easily found a table in the bar. I ordered wings of course and Evie ordered a flatbread pizza with pepperoni. The wings are always great, but the pizza is just average. Midway through dinner, Evie noticed the little boy at the next table was Jacob, from her kindergarten class. He was excited to see her and they talked and Evie met his parents. The five of us talked and ate and drank beers until 8:30 when we drove home. Evie was tired and went up to bed so I watched the Cavs defeat the Heat in the last few minutes and some of my series before joining her.
