Slept pretty good later this morning--was after nine when I woke again. Time to get up....
Seeing that it was drizzly and gloomy, I wasn't going for a run this morning. (I could have, I suppose, bundled up at 36 degrees) I enjoyed breakfast instead.
I spent a lot of time with the computer and my finances, checking all my sites to make sure things were still good. And they are, thank you God.
Phone calls distracted me, and I did go outside for a brief walk after it had warmed up some.
Oh my, even in the light drizzle, the birdsong was awesome. I was remembering being at the JC sitting under the awning on the deck, wrapped in a blanket if need be. Yup, that was good.
A quiet rest of the evening.

Glad I ran yesterday--today was cold, rainy, and gusty wind.
Breakfast, laundry, Frank stopped by for a few minutes.
Went to the meeting. Good discussion and making progress on the road to Baby Friendly.
When I left the hospital, it was raining, and freezing on everything. Ugh. The roads weren't icy, at least here, and when I got home, the icicles hanging off everything were an inch and a half long. Sure, it was beautiful, but if there was much more of it, it could get not nice real fast.
The front blew through, the icy particles sounded like breaking glass as it was blown off of the trees and onto the windows. Another hour or so, the house wasn't as cold, and the temperature had gone up about 5 degrees. All the ice on the foliage had melted, the rain had stopped, and if you hadn't seen it, you wouldn't know it had happened.
Supper and a quiet evening.
Tomorrow? Hmmm......

So happy the weather has changed....
Got up about 0930. Waited a little until it warmed up a little more, then went out for a run.
The sun was delightfully warm. The people in the few cars I encountered all waved first. (I heard a safety tip a long time ago when encountering vehicles: raise your arm and catch the driver's eye. That way you know they see you.) As I was looking down to watch my step, when I looked back up to wave, they were already waving. Some were smiling!! Yup, I do believe the better weather is the factor!!
I stopped to talk with the owner of the dog that had followed me around last fall. "Sassy" has gotten big. Evidently she was an older puppy when she followed me. She recognized me, wagging her tail wildly, but was very well behaved and only rubbed her face on my hands. A lot. She ran around the yard and brought me a toy, rubbed her head on me, and went back to playing. The owner closed the gate while I went on my way.
As I got to the end of the street, there was an old guy on a ladder, doing roof repairs to a very old structure, that I've often wondered if it was a chicken coop. I stopped and said hi, introduced myself, and "Ernie" told me a little about the building. He currently uses it as a "honey house", where he extracts honey from the combs of the 115 hives of bees he keeps. Wow!! And he told me that this hard winter, with the extended deep freeze, has killed a lot of the bees. He has 25 hives living this spring.
He went on to tell me that an older fellow had stopped about 15 years ago and was taking pictures of the building. That the guy was 75 years old, and had been born in there!! Wow, again!!! We talked about the neighborhood a little, and then I was on my way.
Breakfast, shower, and it was so nice outdoors that I couldn't stay inside.
I went out and visited the speed boat, swept out the dead flies in there. All looks good in there.
Curious to see what might be coming up in the yard, I got the leaf rake and uncovered the peonies and the rhubarb. Yup, the red shoots are coming up.
I ended up being out for about 3 hours, trimming, raking, picking up tree debris.
Supper and a quiet night.
Tired tonight.
Tomorrow is a meeting.

Tuesday 04.01.2014 LOL
Had a good day at the J.O.B. Busy, as I knew it would be. A pleasant surprise was that a co-worker who had been off on medical leave came back today. Yay!! It's nice to have another person in my job role!!!
We were both busy. I tried to give her "heads up" about the many things that have changed in the few weeks that she's been off. She did good, and got tired and sore after 9 hours or so. Who wouldn't??
The temperatures have been warm; I'm amazed at how much snow has melted. It's almost gone.
Tomorrow I hope to be able to get outdoors again for a run.
