SNOW, YEP, MARCH SNOW

Snowing At 8:45

What a shock to wake up to a white morning, both front and back yards, white with an inch of snow. It's 27º and I saw a few flurries a couple of minutes ago so it's going to be fun kayaking. I just looked out and it's snowing again. It's 9:30 and I paddled for just 20 minutes, as the wind picked up, blowing snow in my face and making the lake choppy.

Kayak Morning

Tuesday was a day off for both of us, no yoga for me, no school for Evie. I have to admit I am a bit lost when I don't have something planned for the morning, but by 9:45, I had paddled for 35 minutes, read the newspapers, wrote the blog and had breakfast, and was on my way to coffee at Ryders Cup. I met my friend Paul and his wife Ellen, and we chatted for close to an hour, along with other regulars who tend to gather in the morning. It's a fun group. By 11:00, I was off to Wegmans to shop on 5% Tuesdays, along with the other goldenagers. For some reason, I wanted to get done quickly, so I cruised around the other shoppers, following the grocery list that Evie had made for me on my Wegmans app. I am a rare bird, the only one who seems to use the Wegmans app. 

I was home by noon and Evie was taking it easy in the TV room, enjoying a leisurely morning. For lunch, I microwaved a decent noodles and meat sauce package from Aldi's. I started a new Australian series called Secret City and I am into it. It's about a reporter's attempts to unearth the government's corruption and lies, so it seems contemporary and scary. Around 1:45, I read some of my new novel, The Bayou Trilogy and took a decent nap, of course. Like most days recently, the afternoon passed quickly, although I did go for a short walk around the neighborhood, talked to the guys putting in the sewer lines and did a walk-through our neighbor's house that's being renovated, to check out their new bathrooms. By 5:00, we were enjoying a glass or two of wine and listening to the news.

Dinner was from Wegman's, breaded halibut and baked potatoes We watched a few different shows, enjoying them with a piece of blueberry pie which I picked up still warm at Wegmans. Yum. Evie went to bed around 8:30, and I was happy to watch a few minutes of the NBA and soon got bored, so I watched two more episodes of my show, Secret City, and then went to bed.
