I stayed up way too late watching This Is Us on Hulu last night. They were in the middle of a story line that I kept watching one more show for it to finish up. Three shows later they made it.

I went to Emporia early afternoon to get some groceries. I thought it would be a bit warmer today than it is going to be tomorrow. Not sure it was the best time to go though as Walmart was packed. People were in the mood to visit with friends they ran into and were oblivious to others around them. Had to do U Turns in the isle to get where I wanted to go. I thought it was the day before Thanksgiving for a bit.

I got my tax homework done this morning. Kathy walked by and said I haven’t heard you cussing yet. For some reason, it went easy today. I figure out something I have never been able to do before. Yay for me! I was also able to get through the three different log in pages to get where I needed without issue today. First time this year I could do that.

I can do a couple more problems if the mood hits. I got what I needed done and the other problems would be for my own peace of mind. It feels good to be ready for Wednesday already.

I have been watching the Chiefs game off and on this afternoon. So far they are ahead but you never know if they can hold on to a lead. The game makes me anxious so I take breaks off and on.

The dogs hung out in their pen this afternoon for a couple of hours. They love this cold weather. It is bitterly cold today with the wind blowing hard and the cold temperatures. Tomorrow and Monday are to be even colder. Yuck! Can it be spring yet?

No plans for tomorrow. Kathy is going to Emporia in the afternoon to go to the movies but I am going to stay home. Movies aren’t my thing. I need to do a bit of housecleaning to get ready for the guests that are coming over Monday afternoon for the meditation. Other than that I will take another rest day.

My left ear is itching and driving me crazy. Not sure what to put in it to calm it down. I’ll have to google it when I get done blogging and see if I can get some relief.

The city cleared Plum Street yesterday. I so appreciate that. The only remaining ice that is a problem for me is right around my car. I park on grass so it is hard to shovel. Kathy got the front walk and back pad cleared. Nothing is going to melt for another couple of days. We are to get to the lower 40’s by next weekend.

Doing my best to stay out of guessing what may happen after Monday to this country. I do best when I block that all out and stay focused on keeping myself grounded and above neutral. There isn’t anything I can do about the national level but I can continue to look or ways to be in service locally and to build a mutual aide community.

Grateful the tax homework went easy today, grateful groceries are in the house, and grateful tomorrow is a stay at home day.
