Message: [QUOTE="TeaBiscuit, post: 2301011, member: 15656"] [B]Daily Journal[/B] [I]Getting into the holiday spirit.[/I] Yesterday I was home all day. I drank coffee flavoured with mint and chocolate and watched Christmas movies. A few blocks away, my daughter hauled out her Christmas decorations and started decorating her tree. There were many back-and-forth messages about the best place to put her Christmas village. After dinner, I looked out the window and it was snowing. My daughter and I manifested snow! Yay! I checked the weather forecast and now, instead of rain-rain-rain, we have snow-snow-snow. I love it! Later today I have to go out and I won't be home until after ten o'clock. I sometimes find myself thinking fondly of the numerous lock downs we've had over the past couple of years. I know I am in the minority, but I loved them. I was so happy to stay home and not have to go anywhere. I am not a person who needs the company of others and I prefer just being by myself. Until recently, I used to joke that I haven't been dressed since March 2020. If I have the choice between going out and staying home, I will choose the latter every time. So, with the knowledge that a large chunk of my day will be busy, I have spent a quiet morning doing nothing. In a slight deviation from my usual routine, I made toast to go with my coffee because I won't be able to eat again until I return home tonight. I don't usually eat breakfast, but it's a long time until dinner. I have a bowl of leftovers from a very good Southwestern pasta dish that I made for dinner yesterday. I am already looking forward to it. There is still some snow on the ground and I will definitely be wearing my coat when I leave. It is currently minus 2°C, with a wind chill of minus 6. A nice day for walking if there is no wind. [/QUOTE]
