Well…up and down all night and out of bed at 5:37 anticipating the winter storm and 8-12 inches of snow today…I know I’ve lived in Michigan my whole life and snow is part of it but I just need a break…at least it’s all the way up to 12 degrees instead of single digits right now…my friend T spent the night in her mom’s hospital room anticipating the end after 5 years of dementia care and I feel for her…it’s worn her out and I hope she can find some peace soon…so my whining about snow seems pretty small to me and I find I’m doing that a lot lately….hmmm…I did have leftover whole bean coffee this morning and it’s nice to have to start the day…but I’ll be changing over to drip for the next cup….think I’m going to grind beans for the next pot of drip on Friday….need to do some meal planning today to figure out what ingredients I have and what they will make…pasta and garlic bread and some more masala along with the container of ham soup I took out of the freezer last night….not much to do today…have to get on the bike in 35 minutes to get three rides in but I’m really not feeling it right now…but I need to get off my butt and get moving…it was so cold in the basement yesterday that I had to wear gloves to ride indoors and that sucks…just worn out from the extreme weather…damn, I’m feeling old today…more later…
