No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

It looks as if the foot or so of powdery snow has been condensed into about 6 inches of pack snow by the sun today. Easier to keep one's footing in, so that's nice.

I checked to make sure the alley cats found the food I put out for them this morning, and not only was it gone, but it appeared there were bird tracks in the snow leading up to the edge of the deck I poured it beneath. They may have gotten a bigger breakfast than I intended. Oops.

Birds do like to steal cat food. Presumably they know the risks.

My dogs are so mad they did not get walked today. Extra time on the back yard is not appeasing Bailey. Miley resolved herself and is now content with sleeping beside me in the recliner.

I’ve done nothing much today. Can’t believe it’s already 3:30.

I had 4 conference calls/meetings today, which I know is not much for some people but it's a lot for me and they were all scheduled back to back and I just want to crawl into bed now but I have another couple hours of work, supposedly.

The dogs wore me down. We went out for a short walk. Nothing is slippery, just covered and the road is slushy.

While out, old man across street is out shoveling. Hell no. So soon 4 of us are out trying to get him and his wife to stop. They don’t, but we help them and get a bit more cleared.

This is the hardest of the snowstorms to clear. I need an ice breaker-upper.

Good neighboring, msbelle.

Oof, that's a lot of meeting, -t.

I just made a really good coconut flour banana bread from a new recipe, holy yum. It said, "Wait until completely cooled before slicing." As if.

Mm, coconut and banana sounds good. I bet it would go well with pineapple.

I bet you're right. I actually had to substitute some applesauce because I only had two bananas, but that worked just fine.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Got to work a little late between having to de-ice my car and driving slowly on the slippery roads. Otherwise, everything's fine here.
