Woke up to a winter wonderland outside. We had a heavy fog that covered everything with ice crystals. The sun broke through and it was absolutely beautiful. Grateful I didn’t have to drive in the thick fog.
By the time I went to Emporia late morning, the fog was starting to lift. It was heavy in the low places on the highway but not too bad. I was surprised how many trucks and cars didn’t have their headlights on.
Went through the car wash and then went to the Chiropractor. Stopped at the bank downtown to deposit a check and then stopped at the grocery store downtown to get a bag of ice. Came home after that.
I came home really tired so ate some lunch and took a long winter’s nap. I have to get up in the morning by 8:00 so hoping I can get to sleep tonight at a decent time. I have to be in KC at 11:30 so will leave a little after 9:30.
I can’t think of anything I need in KC so will come home after my appointment is over. I’ll probably stop for lunch somewhere and then drive home. The forecast for tomorrow looks good so should be good to go.
No plans for the weekend. I have to go back to KC Tuesday and am going to talk to them about that tomorrow. The forecast for Tuesday is calling for 5 – 6 inches of snow in KC that is to fall Monday night and into Tuesday. Not sure I want to drive in that. I’ll see what they say my options are.
My get up and go got up and left the station without me today. Haven’t had any motivation to do anything today. Yesterday was productive but not so much today.
I was sitting in my chair a while ago and the sun was shining in my eyes. I finally remembered I could lower the shades and presto – no sun in my face. I lowered them overnight to help keep the house warmer and had raised them all this morning. Nice to be able to block out the afternoon sun.
I had forgotten to lower the ones in my bedroom last night so the morning sun woke me up this morning. I may have to put a reminder on my phone so I lower the blinds before I go to bed.
It warmed up into the low 40’s today and it was a rare day without much wind. It was really nice walking down to take care of the chickens. I wish the whole winter could be like this but there is a cold front on the way and things will change over the weekend.
This is one of those days where at the end of it I wonder what in the world I did all day. Other than the trip to town and taking care of the chickens, I can’t think of a thing I have done. Just not in the mood today to do anything. Grateful I have the luxury to take a quiet day and “be”.
Grateful for the winter beauty this morning, grateful I didn’t have to drive in the worst of it, and grateful I can take a day and do nothing.
