What are you doing today?

On my early morning walk it was 18 with no wind, felt refreshing
This morning my usual calling of Canopy of Neighbor members to see how they are. Afterwards, going to my church to volunteer in business office. I'll be putting labels/ stamps on statements to be mailed to congregation
The rest of my day read NYT,local paper. After dinner tackle the daily NYT puzzle, watch talented 10 yr old bakers on Food Network 'Kids Baking Championship' at 8pm
 

Don't ask me about this morning...here's what hub is doing - indexing his upstairs library. My library is right below it downstairs and it's in a bit better shape, but might have at it later, too:

I went to the post office to mail my tax packet. I wish my accountant would update his office procedures to allow clients the option of sending an email with attachments.

Stopped at the local Wegman's for a few groceries. While I was there I tapped into their free wifi to install an IOS update on my phone.

I have a small pot of mushroom barley soup bubbling away on the stove. That will take care of lunch for today and tomorrow.

I love soup season! 🤗
 
Well it's been sunny but freezing high winds today.. can hear something banging loudly in next doors' garden, hopefully it's not something damaging the other side of my privacy fence..

I was going to go out today after the Amazon delivery had been which was supposed to have been by 11.30am, but that time came and went , and the tracking is saying the stuff will be here by 10pm.. so it's anyone's guess when it'll arrive.. so I can't go out..

I did go into the garden and pick up flower pots that had blown over, but it's so cold I didn't stay out there many minutes..
Just ordered some new indoor plant pots for my money trees.

Did some Ironing today for the first time in ages. I barely ever buy anything that ever needs ironing nowadays.. and those that do get wrinkled have the wrinkles come out in the dryer.. but I had put too much stuff in the dryer , and my jeans came out all wrinkled so the Iron had to see the light of day for the first time in a while
 
Have some plans to pick up the house; not much needs to be done.

Yesterday GS came over to shovel out my car and bring it back from the field since all the plowing has been done.

He also brought over an eyeglass repair kit and put the lens back into my glasses that had popped out yesterday.

We tried out that breakfast sandwich maker I bought...he just loved it, so I gave it to him, with the rest of the English muffins.
 
It's gray & gloomy here. Our winter weather is going to start this afternoon. 😢. The next 3-4 days are going to be bad.....there is even a prediction of power outages. Well, it could be worse....it's only a few days. We could still be in Illinois, and have 3 months of winter weather! I sure don't miss those days!

I have waaaaay too much food in the freezers, for a power outage! At least we have a generator. The last major power outrage was in 2009......our power was out for 3 weeks. Because we are so rural, we were last on the repair list. Keep your fingers crossed for me....I don't want to go through that again!

The Girl's water feeder decided to retire, last night. So we have to do a quick run into town to get a new one. After that, just hunker down and wait for it to pass.
 
Zero degrees when I got up at 5 but now it has gone up to 12 degrees. Sun has been shining all morning and that warms up my apartment. Took my garbage out and got that blast of fresh air. Such a relief. Now going through a bunch of papers that piled up on my table. Not sure what else I will be doing yet.
 
I'm nervous today. I think it might be because I reserved 2 rides for tomorrow with Access A Ride to see my grandson. AAR always screws up, always, sometimes Big Time and using them makes me nervous. So I'm nervous in advance. Don't feel like taking Subway, it's been weeks since I went anywhere, my son was off work so they all would visit me. I'm a scaredy cat sometimes.

I understand all of that, Pepper. There are valid concerns, and our bodies respond. Thinking of you. Yes, I find things to be extra difficult, sometimes too!
