S.S.,D.D. Saturday

I went out and read at 4:30 AM (I told you I didn’t sleep well) Saturday morning. It was snowing here when daylight finally dawned.

When I went out to get the mail, it was still snowing, but I made myself take down the outdoor Christmas decorations on the porch and the wreath. It’s waaay past time!

I did get in a nice two-hour nap in the early afternoon and, big surprise, it was sunny outside! In fact, the snow was melting. But, I wasn’t fooled as the wind howled around the house and I watched winter-killed twigs and small branches blow down out of the maples.

I talked with B___ and my Brother Jim. Both called to see how I was feeling and to ask if I needed anything (“Crummy” and “No’ were my answers). Both also agreed it “looked” nice from inside, but it was cold if you were out there.

I thought I should switch things up a bit, so I ordered a medium pizza with my three favorite toppings for dinner. I was SO bummed as it didn’t taste as good as I’d hoped (probably the medicine) and I could barely eat 1 1/2 pieces (ditto – medicine).

I watched an old movie (King Solomon’s Mine) and an old favorite (Under Siege) and went to bed at 11:00 PM.
