Daybook: Monday, Apr. 16/18

Outside my window.....it is gray and wet. It feels like the precipitation has not stopped since Friday morning. It started as rain, turned to freezing rain and ice pellets, and now back to rain. It is melting the accumulations of ice and ice pellets, which is good because I cannot move the ice dam at the end of my driveway.

I am thinking.....I don't feel like doing anything again today. I cannot motivate myself.

I am thankful for.....not having lost my electric power over the weekend. So many people did.

From the kitchen.....I have finished up the chicken soup I made last week. I roasted some chicken thighs last night with a baked sweet potato and steamed cauliflower with broccoli. I will be shredding and frying some cabbage later this afternoon to eat with some cooked ground beef for dinner tonight.

I am wearing.....blue jeans and a long sleeved blue and gray hooded t-shirt.

I am creating.....nothing. I am gathering boxes of materials to take with me when I go up north.

I am going.....nowhere today.

I am hoping.....the rains remove most of the snow and ice before the temperatures drop again tonight and freezes everything over.

I am hearing.....the patter of rain outside and the blower on the furnace coming on again.

Around the house.....it looks exactly like it did a week ago today. I have done nothing.

One of my favourite things.....these days is Netflix. I am still watching movies in the evenings. I have been "off" watching television series.

A few plans for the rest of the week.....allude me right now. I am totally uninspired right now. So far Wednesday looks like the best day for traveling, but I will have to keep my eye on the weather.

Here's the picture I am sharing.....

Friday afternoon, just after the ice storm started.
