Woke up at 7:30 this morning after a solid sleep. But I'm feeling a bit discombobulated since I'm usually back from my walk by now, not still in my pajamas and waking up when it is light outside. I feel like I've missed a quarter of my day. But I must have needed the sleep. Or else I'm super depressed with SAD. More likely lol.

Yesterday morning's note rattled me. As a result, my day was very low key as I processed it. I took my walk as usual which helped calm my mind. I had planned to go to an eagle watching event at 11am, but I talked myself out of it: the roads are icy, I'd have to take the highway, they would look at me like a weirdo because I was alone, no one would acknowledge my presence, etc etc. Until it was too late to go. I shoveled snow instead. Because it won't stop snowing. An inch yesterday, an inch the day before. We have more than a foot of snow on the ground, with very visible layers of each snowfall. Where are the good old days where we got dumped on and then the sky cleared and it got nasty cold? Now we get dumped on and the skies don't clear but it still gets nasty cold. And it keeps snowing! I do not think we had an entire/full sunny day all of December. Although, this morning is sunny. And 9F. Will it stay sunny all day??

But back to yesterday. I put together and posted the 2025 photo recap. I'm struggling with formatting and video links so it looks like shit. But whatever. Then I crawled into bed with the Pachinko ebook and a bowl of potato chips, my stress food. The emergency bag of chips has been opened. It will be gone soon. Took a nap. Took a shower. Watched a movie. Eden, on Netflix. I liked it.

Today will probably be more of the same of doing nothing. Honey may or may not come up tonight, depending on whether he works tomorrow or not. Either wwy, I am making those bacon wrapped tater tots. Dog show is this weekend. Honey and I discussed taking the bus downtown to attend if he does come up. $15 admission. Much more affordable than the ice castles at $30. For ice. No thanks.

Well, I best get moving.
